Regency Warrior Series - Book 2 of 6
On the night before the final battle in one of the most harrowing
retreats in British Army history, a colonel wagers his only child in a
game of cards. She is rescued by Major Nicholas Tarleton, who marries
Julia Litchfield the next day, but only as he is dying. Julia, a hardy
soul who has followed the drum all her life, takes over her husband's
estate, becoming a heroine to Nicholas's tenant farmers, and is
developing an interest in a new man when totally unexpected events
plunge her into a conflict of love and honor that might have challenged
Solomon himself.
Reviews Excerpts:
"A real historical novel, TARLETON'S WIFE places the author in the
ranks with Victoria Holt and a handful of other writers of romantic
fiction that I have read, reread, and loved." Patricia White, Word
Museum
"TARLETON'S WIFE . . . is filled with action and emotion, and with
well drawn, realistic characters headed by a strong, admirable and
totally likable heroine. The author has extraordinary ability to bring
her characters to life and to create a real world around them." Lily
Martin, Romance Communication
"Ms Bancroft has a clear voice and the potential to be another Mary Jo Putney or Mary Balogh." Kathe Robin, Romantic Times
"This is a very well written piece, painted with rich history and
wonderfully drawn characters. We will be seeing much more from this
brilliant author." April Redmon, Under the Covers
Regency Gothic Series - Book 2 of 12
Penelope Ruth Ballantyne has lived at the tail of the army all her
life, experiencing the rigors of life in India, followed by five years
of war in Portugal and Spain. Not surprisingly, now that she is
orphaned, she accepts the most challenging position available, companion
to an invalid who lives on the edge of Exmoor in northern Devonshire.
After years of constant travel, Penny longs to settle under one roof,
find a true home. Instead, she encounters hysteria, mysterious deaths, a
nasty rival, and the constant fear of dismissal as she attracts the
attention of more than one young gentleman in the household. Though the
only one she truly sees is Robert, Lord Exmere, heir to Moorhead Manor.
Together, they face a startling dilemma worthy of the judgment of
Solomon.
The Matthew Wolfe Series - Book 2 of 3
At the risk of being taken up by Bow Street, Matthew Wolfe returns
to London, hoping to discover some clue to his heritage, which just
might be royal. But, of course, almost nothing goes as he hoped. Not
even the role he had eagerly anticipated as one of Harding's Hellions.
Yet becoming an adventurer has some unanticipated benefits, such as
acquiring an elegant mistress a decade older than he. And discovering
his former fishing companion, Jocelyn, has grown into a beauty old
enough to make her come-out.
But even as a partner in a newly formed private investigation
business, life does not run smoothly for Matthew. Vast sums of gold and
gems are being lost to a clever gang of thieves operating on both sides
of the Channel, yet Matthew and his partner are unable to capture the
villains. A problem that is also keeping Matthew too busy to explore
that ever-tantalizing trail that might lead to royal relatives. And
then, just as he is on the verge of combining his search for the thieves
with the long-postponed search for his heritage, yet another dramatic
problem crops up.
Warning: The Matthew Wolfe series is a return to an old tradition -
one long story told in installments, each with a cliff-hanger ending. So
do not expect Happily Ever After until the final book.
The Blue Moon Rising Series - Book 2 of 4*
Princess M'lani of the pacifist planet Psyclid, where almost everyone but M'lani is gifted with some kind of psychic ability, has agreed to marry Jagan Mondragon, the Sorcerer Prime. Jagan fled their planet when it was invaded by the Regulon Empire, but has now returned, supposedly to lead his people in rebellion against the Occupation. But he's been dragging his feet about it, and when he finally shows up, he has his mistress with him. If that weren't enough of a problem, M'lani develops a not-so-welcome psychic gift, and then there's that prickly long-time rebel leader, T'kal Killiri, and the antics of M'lani's younger brother, who speaks only through illusions. Freedom for the obscure, peace-loving planet of Psyclid seems a long way away.
