WILDER
Coming August 2012

Only beloved paranormal storyteller Christina Dodd could bring you the explosive excitement of the Chosen Ones combined with Aleksandr Wilder's story of redemption...and love... Aleksandr Wilder abandoned his duty, and for that lapse, he was tortured, tormented...and transformed. Now he prowls the tunnels beneath the city, a warrior against the forces of hell. After years battling evil, Chosen One Charisma Fangorn is tough and disillusioned; she never suspects a monster lurks in the dark underneath the streets. When Aleksandr finds Charisma under attack, he rescues her, and hope stirs once more in his heart...and in the world. But in the secret recesses of his soul, he wonders—so exceptional a woman could never love a beast...could she? The story you've been waiting for: WILDER

“A star in any genre! Dodd writes with power and passion—and always leaves me satisfied!” — J.R. Ward, author of the Black Dagger Brotherhood

Dear Sir,

. . . I feel I should inform you that your mother is very ill. If you wish to see her before it is too late, you should come at once. Sincerely, Mrs. Camilla Stuart

Pierce Waverly, the Earl of Devonmont, has led an unabashed rogue’s life, letting no woman near his heart. Inexplicably abandoned as a child to be raised by distant relatives, he never forgave his parents, refusing to read any of his mother’s letters after his father’s death. Then came a letter that shook his resolve. A Christmas visit to Montcliff might prove his last chance to discover the truth of his past, and come to terms with the stranger he calls “mother.” But, when he arrives at Montcliff, he finds his mother in fine health and Mrs. Camilla Stuart, her meddling, yet utterly intoxicating lady’s companion behind the misleading letter. Between his desire to unravel long standing secrets about his abandonment and his introduction to the mysterious and beguiling Camilla Stuart, Pierce finds himself with plenty of reason to prolong his holiday stay.

BEAUTIFUL SACRIFICE
On Sale NOW!

According to Maya legend, December 21, 2012, will mark the end of the world as we know it. Is it myth . . . or will their prediction become reality?

Archaeologist Lina Taylor has devoted her life to studying ancient Maya artifacts, splitting her time between digs in Yucatan and the classroom teaching college students. But the professor’s structured, academic life is about to spin out of control. Some extremely valuable and important Maya artifacts have gone missing. Are the culprits fanatics determined to create chaos and usher in annihilation?

Helping out a friend, former immigration and customs enforcement officer Hunter Johnston is determined to recover the missing pieces and he needs Lina’s help. A man used to calling the shots and working alone, he isn’t comfortable letting anyone get close, especially a beautiful and brainy woman like Lina. His gift for reading people tells him there’s a lot going on below that professional exterior, and he’s more than a little curious to probe her depths.

Burying herself in her work, Lina’s had little experience handling men, especially one as fascinating and exasperating as the secretive, headstrong Hunter. A devoted archaeologist, she has the skill to excavate those protective layers all the way to his core. But finding the missing artifacts is only the beginning of a mystery that will plunge these unlikely partners into adventure, romance, and danger more thrilling, sensual, and deadly than either of them knows. . . .

COURAGEOUS
On Sale NOW!

The life of a paid mercenary makes sense to Special Forces Officer Winslow Grange. The jungles of South America may make his former job as a ranch manager for his friend Jay Pendleton look like a cakewalk, but it’s nothing that the former Green Beret can’t handle. A woman’s heart, however — that’s dangerous territory. Back in Texas, Grange’s biggest problem was avoiding Peg Larson and all the complications being attracted to the daughter of his foreman would entail. Now Grange will need all his training to help General Emilio Machado gain control of the tiny South American nation of Barrera; when Peg arrives unannounced, she’s a distraction he can’t avoid. She’s determined to show Grange she can be useful on and off the battlefield. Once she breaks through his armor, traversing the wilds of the Amazon will prove an easier task than defending himself against her winning charms....

THE GREAT ESCAPE will be available in hardcover July 10, 2012.

Being the daughter of the former president of the United States isn’t easy-and not nearly as much fun as it might seem. No one knows this better than the “perfect” Lucy Jorik. A dutiful, responsible daughter (so unlike her best friend, Meg Koranda!), Lucy has always done "the right thing": attending the right school, earning the right grades, landing the right guy. But on her wedding day to Ted Beaudine-a.k.a. Mr. Irresistible, the pride of Wynette, Texas-Lucy did the impossible. She took off, leaving the would-be groom at the altar. While she’s thrilled that Ted and Meg have found true love with each other, Lucy is more than ready for an adventure of her own. Still, when a menacing-looking stranger on a motorcycle offers her a ride, should she really say yes? In this dazzling follow-up to her New York Times bestseller Call Me Irresistible, Susan Elizabeth Phillips tells Lucy’s story, a rollicking road trip full of hilarious mishaps, unexpected fun, and sizzling romance in which a young woman breaks free of her proper life to discover what she really wants-and dares to find it!
