Celebrate WITH VICKI!
THEIR ELUSIVE ENEMIES TOOK EVERYTHING. NOW THEY WANT MORE.
Crossroads Crisis Center owner Benjamin Brandt was a content man—in his faith, his work, and his family. Then in a flash, everything he loved was snatched away. His wife and son were murdered, and grief-stricken Ben lost faith. Determination to find their killers keeps him going, but after three years of dead ends and torment, his hope is dying too. Why had he survived? He’d failed to protect his family.
Now, a mysterious woman appears at Crossroads seeking answers and help—a victim who eerily resembles Ben’s deceased wife, Susan. A woman robbed of her identity, her life, of everything except her faith—and Susan’s necklace.
The connections between the two women mount, exceeding coincidence, and to keep the truth hidden, someone is willing to kill. Finding out who and why turns Ben and the mystery woman’s situation from dangerous to deadly. Their only hope for survival is to work together, trust each other, and face whatever they discover head on, no matter how painful. But will that be enough to save their lives and heal their tattered hearts

ends February 8, 2010
Win a treat basket including a bag of yummy Texas pralines and Lindt Truffles, Susan Boyle’s new CD and an autographed copy of Hill Country Hero - Ann's February Harlequin American Romance. Valentine's Day can trace its origin back to the death of a Christian martyr in Roman times, but somehow through the years it has magically evolved into a celebration of romance. That is the miracle of love. So take this special day and do something wonderful for someone who resides in your heart. Hill Country Hero
CiCi Hurst really, really wanted a job. That's why she agreed to be the mascot for her daddy's NFL football team. It was embarrassing enough to be dressed up like Foghorn Leghorn (okay, it was actually a Roadrunner). And she really doesn't expect to be tackled by six feet five inches of gorgeous male. Jake Culpepper is every woman's dream. Too bad the pro-football star is the type CiCi has vowed to avoid. She had been there and done that, and there wasn't going to be an encore. No more low-down, cheating, womanizing athletes for her - no siree! Jake can't believe he just decked the boss's daughter! Now he's paying the price by working for CiCi at her family's camp in the Texas Hill Country for underprivileged kids. He didn't intend to be a hero. And he sure didn't plan on falling for an heiress. But love sometimes has a mind of its own, and that's when the sparks fly

Win a copy of THE HAPPINESS PROJECT by Gretchen Rubin
ends February 28, 2010
Check out the Jen's Jewels interview with Gretchen Rubin, author of THE HAPPINESS PROJECT. Answer the question below and you could be one of FIVE winners to get a copy, courtesy of Harper Collins. THE HAPPINESS PROJECT
Gretchen Rubin had an epiphany one rainy afternoon in the unlikeliest of places: a city bus. "The days are long, but the years are short," she realized. "Time is passing, and I'm not focusing enough on the things that really matter." In that moment, she decided to dedicate a year to her happiness project.
In this lively and compelling account of that year, Rubin carves out her place alongside the authors of bestselling memoirs such as Julie and Julia, The Year of Living Biblically, and Eat, Pray, Love. With humor and insight, she chronicles her adventures during the twelve months she spent test-driving the wisdom of the ages, current scientific research, and lessons from popular culture about how to be happier.
Rubin didn't have the option to uproot herself, nor did she really want to; instead she focused on improving her life as it was. Each month she tackled a new set of resolutions: give proofs of love, ask for help, find more fun, keep a gratitude notebook, forget about results. She immersed herself in principles set forth by all manner of experts, from Epicurus to Thoreau to Oprah to Martin Seligman to the Dalai Lama to see what worked for her—and what didn't.
Her conclusions are sometimes surprising—she finds that money can buy happiness, when spent wisely; that novelty and challenge are powerful sources of happiness; that "treating" yourself can make you feel worse; that venting bad feelings doesn't relieve them; that the very smallest of changes can make the biggest difference—and they range from the practical to the profound.
Written with charm and wit, The Happiness Project is illuminating yet entertaining, thought-provoking yet compulsively readable. Gretchen Rubin's passion for her subject jumps off the page, and reading just a few chapters of this book will inspire you to start your own happiness project

And one fateful evening—the night of her first masquerade ball—she is stunned when he suggests that they rendezvous at midnight. But then fortune takes a maddening turn and Lizzie is thwarted from ever meeting Tyrell. Lizzie is certain such an opportunity will never arise again, but that night is only the beginning... Tyrell de Warenne is shocked when, two years later, Lizzie arrives on his doorstep with a child that she claims is his. He remembers her well—and knows that it is impossible that he is the boy's father. What is this game she is playing...and why? Is Elizabeth Anne Fitzgerald a woman of vast experience, or the gentle innocent he had believed her to be? Tyrell quickly decides he will play her game and he claims the child as his own—determined to uncover Lizzie's lies. But neither scandal, deception nor pride can thwart a love too grand and passionate to ever be denied

It’s just Sabrina’s way of saying, "Happy Valentines!"
In Sabrina Jeffries’ new series, The Hellions of Halstead Hall, Oliver Sharpe is the oldest of the scandalous Sharpes (five hell-raising siblings tainted by the gossip surrounding the "accidental" deaths of their parents two decades earlier). Like his brothers and sisters, the Marquess of Stoneville has lived life on his own terms. In his case, as an unrepentant rakehell.
That is until Grandmother Hetty got a bee in her bonnet. Now the five Sharpe siblings face a daunting ultimatum: Marry by year’s end—or kiss their inheritance good-bye.
Oliver vows to fulfill the bargain in true Sharpe fashion— by bringing home a fake fiancé from a brothel! But his scheme backfires when he foils a robbery and rescues an American beauty instead. His rebellious charade may yet call Hetty’s bluff, but not before Maria Butterfield stirs up a love that tempts the Marquess of Stoneville to be a hellion no more.
"Lively repartee, fast action, luscious sensuality, and an abundance of humor . . . Jeffries has launched another sparkling series with winning potential." —Library Journal, starred review

In addition, the grand prizewinner in Mary’s contest will receive a gift-size hardcover copy of A MATTER OF CLASS (Vanguard Press, January 2009).
Reginald Mason has been a wildly extravagant expense to his father for too long. He must marry and settle down. And it so happens that Lady Annabelle Ashton, daughter of the Earl of Havercroft, the Masons' neighbor and long-time enemy, has just disgraced herself by trying to elope with her father's coachman. At last Mr. Mason sees a way of forcing recognition for his wealth even though he is not a gentleman by birth. Reggie will marry Annabelle—or be cut off forever from his father's vast funds.
Annabelle is about to be banished to her father's most remote estate in northern England. She is ruined and unmarriageable. But at the last moment she is offered a reprieve from complete disgrace, and her father is offered a reprieve from the financial ruin he has been facing for some time. All the earl has to do is swallow his pride and marry his daughter to the son of his enormously wealthy neighbor, whom he has despised for years.
It is not a promising start for the lifelong commitment of marriage. But it would seem that Reggie and Annabelle have no choice but to make the best of it. They have no control over their destiny, after all.
Or do they?

Sean has settled down in spite of himself—he’s not the cocky young fighter pilot he was when Franci left, and he wants them to try again. After all, they have a history . . . but that’s not all they share.
Franci’s secret reason for walking away when Sean refused to commit is now three-and-a-half: a redheaded cherub named Rosie who shares her daddy’s emerald green eyes. Sean is stunned—and furious with Franci for the deception.

The pattern of a quilt will always lead you back home. Trixie Lynn Parks changed her name to Emma, shook the dust of Twilight, Texas off her shoes, and vowed to make it big in the city.
