"Jamie Wendon-Dale may design haunted houses, but they don't actually believe in ghosts-until they meet Edgar Lovejoy, who is tall, clever, beautiful ... and 100% haunted. Jamie Wendon-Dale creates haunted houses for a living. Haunting is their life-but nobody working New Orleans' spooky circuit actually believes in ghosts. Edgar Lovejoy is 100% haunted. No, really. Ghosts have tormented him since childhood and he's organized his life around attempts to avoid them. Opposites? Get ready to attract. But while Jamie's biggest concern is that Edgar sometimes seems a bit distracted, Edgar's fears are much greater. Not only is he scared of encountering the dearly departed whenever he leaves the house, but he's terrified of making himself vulnerable to Jamie. After all, how do you tell someone who believes ghosts only exist as smoke and mirrors that you see them everywhere you go? And how can you trust in a happy future when you can't even believe in yourself?"--

An offer from a gentleman / by Quinn, Julia,1970-author.;

Yet, if he offers her his heart, will Benedict sacrifice his only chance for a fairy-tale love.

Thunderer / by Stockwin, Julian,author.;
1812. Arriving back in England after his successes in the Adriatic, Captain Sir Thomas Kydd is showered with honours. Despite Kydd's protests that he's happy with his present command, he's given a bigger ship--HMS Thunderer, a 74-gun ship of the line. But she's old, and is part of a standing fleet. Kydd's chances of further fame and distinction are slim indeed. Winning over his new command is fraught with challenges. A hostile crew, abysmal levels of gunnery and sail-handling capabilities are intolerable to a fighting captain like Kydd. With the ship short of men and no incentives to attract more, can he ever bring Thunderer to a proper state of fighting preparedness? Worse, Kydd is sent to reinforce the Baltic squadron as Bonaparte's vast army invades Russia. News reaches him of French victory at the Battle of Borodino. The road to Moscow is now open. To avert total French victory, Kydd must lead a vital convoy through battle and tempest to the aid of Britain's last ally.
