Book Description
Lover Sheikh

Raschid Al Kadah and Evie Delahaye’s high-profile affair had lasted for two ecstatic years, but soon the relationship would have to end; Raschid was expected to marry an Arabian princess. But then Evie discovered she was with child…

To Seven years ago Caroline had fallen in love – and into bed – with powerful Spaniard Luiz Vazquez. Believing he’d betrayed her, she’d fled. Now, she’s back – being forced to accept his proposal and trying to keep him at a distance!

Bride Marco feels bound to marry and produce an heir to the famous Bellini fortune. But Antonia, his delectable mistress, is the only woman he wants in his life and his bed. Will he take his unsuitable mistress for his wife?

The Kindle Deal of the Day for those in the UK is three crime novels for £0.99 each (~80% off).

The Messenger of Athens (Main/UK), by Anne Zouroudi (US edition $8.89)
When the battered body of a young woman is discovered on a remote Greek island, the local police are quick to dismiss her death as an accident. Then a stranger arrives, uninvited, from Athens, announcing his intention to investigate further. His methods are unorthodox, and he brings his own mystery into the web of dark secrets and lies. Who has sent him, on whose authority is he acting, and how does he know of dramas played out decades ago?
The Marseille Caper (Main/UK), by Peter Mayle (US edition $12.99)
Sam Levitt, former corporate lawyer, wine connoisseur and expert on cultivated crime, is back in Marseille, for both work and pleasure – the lure of excitement and the pleasures of the region proving too tempting to resist.

But surrounded by gangsters and cut-throat developers, Sam finds himself far closer to danger than he had planned...
Blink of an Eye (Main/UK), by Cath Staincliffe (no US edition)
In a heartbeat, life changes.

A sunny, Sunday afternoon, a family barbecue, and Naomi Baxter and her boyfriend Alex celebrate good news. Driving home, Naomi's recklessness causes a fatal accident, leaving nine-year-old Lily Vasey dead, Naomi fighting for her life, Alex bruised and bloody and the lives of three families torn apart.

Traumatised, Naomi has no clear memory of the crash and her mother Carmel is forced to break the shocking truth of the child's death to her. Naomi may well be prosecuted for causing death by dangerous driving. If convicted she will face a jail term of up to 14 years, especially if her sister's claim that Naomi was drunk-driving is proven. In the months before the trial, Carmel strives to help a haunted and remorseful Naomi cope with the consequences of her actions.

Blink of an Eye is a novel about the nightmare that could be just around the next bend for any one of us.
