Renegade Alpha (ALPHA 5) is the 5th book in Amazon #1 and USA Today International Bestselling author Carole Mortimer’s ALPHA series. Lijah Smith was known as The Renegade during his years in the army, and even though he no longer serves that hasn’t changed; he’s still a renegade, believes rules were made for other people, not him. He’s also hard, ruthless, with a body of tempered steel, and when beautiful Callie Morgan tells him the reason she needs his help he becomes the deadly assassin that he was trained to be. But Lijah has a secret, one that only a handful of people know, and Callie isn’t one of them. Callie came to Grayson Security looking for the men who served under her father, Major Peter Morgan, knowing that if anyone can help her find him, they can. She expected to speak with the owner of Grayson Security, instead she meets Lijah Smith, a man as deadly as he is overpoweringly attractive. But there’s something Callie isn’t telling Lijah, something that could get them both killed. The sexual attraction between the two of them is raw and primal, and impossible for either of them to ignore. But can that attraction overcome the secrets they’re both hiding, and will they find Callie’s father before it’s too late?

Book Description

Benedict’s Challenge (Regency Club Venus 3) is the 3rd book in Amazon #1 & USA Today Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, hot new historical romance series, Regency Club Venus. Lord Benedict Winter knows what those in Society think of him. Of their disapproval of his having studied and become a physician. They are even more shocked that he uses his skill, not just to treat the poor but also to care for the ladies of Club Venus, a house of ill-repute owned by one of his closest friends. Not disapproving enough to ban him from entering their homes of course, because he is, after all, one of the wealthiest gentleman in England. Having shunned all attempts to entice him into the Marriage Mart, many in Society also believe Benedict to be a cold and arrogant man, with no emotion to give. His close friends know better. As they also know of the secret he has kept for so long… In the circumstances, the very last thing Benedict needs or wants is to meet and instantly be attracted to Chloe, a young woman he discovers residing in another man’s home. Chloe has lost everyone dear to her. Her parents. The brother she adored. All gone. And in their place she now lives in the home of a man who despises her and takes every opportunity to make those feelings known to her. Lord Benedict Winter sweeps in like a breath of fresh air into the stultifying life Chloe is now forced to lead. But he blows hot and cold, one moment making his desire for her known and the next putting her at arms’ length and insisting he is not the man for her to build her dreams upon. But dreams, Chloe quickly discovers, have a will and determination of their own.

Book Description

The young widow Lady Dorothea Fitzroy is bored with her life. Most especially so with her role as mistress of her brother’s household, and the endless round of society engagements this forces her to endure. What Thea so badly needs is a secret and passionate lover, to become mistress of another kind entirely, and so add excitement and spice into her humdrum life. But where is she to find this handsome and inexhaustible gentleman? Julian Remington, the arrogant and haughty 17th Duke of Blackmoor has no interest in finding a mistress for his bedroom or his home. He’s jaded, cynical, and distrustful when it comes to women. One woman, a woman from his past, has caused too much grief in his life for him to ever trust another. Thea and Julian are about to be caught up in a passion for each other that blazes so fiercely, and so out of control, it is beyond the power of either of them to resist. The Duke’s Mistress is the story of an arrogant duke and an adventurous young widow, caught up in their insatiable desire for each other, the vengeful woman who would like nothing better than to see Blackmoor suffer as she has suffered, and believes Thea Fitzroy to be the means by which she will achieve it.

Book Description

THE GUARDIAN (Ruthless Regency Dukes 4) is the fourth book in USA Today and Amazon International #1 Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, NEW Regency Romance series. Hunter St. John, the Duke of Lincoln, is far too busy hunting the person who murdered one of his closest friends to deal with the problem of his young ward, Miss Evelyn Gardener. Indeed, for the most part he chooses to forget her very existence. That is made easier by the fact he sent her, along with her governess, to his remotest ducal estate in Yorkshire years ago and has seen very little of her since. Receiving a missive from that governess, informing him that his young ward has run away, is not only inconvenient to his own plans but disobedient in the extreme on hers. Something Miss Evelyn Gardener will soon learn to her detriment. Once Hunter has succeeded in finding her, of course… Evie is tired of living in the country and being ignored by her guardian, the toplofty Duke of Lincoln. To that end she has decided to travel to London and make him acknowledge that, at nineteen years of age, she is no longer a child for him to ignore. It is hardly her fault if, on the long journey to England’s capital, she is waylaid and captured by a group of footpads. Nor, when she hears those men discussing demanding a ransom from her guardian in exchange for her release, is she at all sure the Duke of Lincoln will bother himself to pay that ransom. Indeed, she believes the duke might happily wash his hands of her. When the two of them do finally meet again sparks certainly do fly, but not of the kind either of them had expected…

Author’s Note: All the books in the very sexy Regency Sinners series are complete and HEA stories. The stories are connected by the friendship of the eight heroes. Lord Sebastian Trentham, Marquis of Deveril, known to his close acquaintances as Devil, is the third of the eight gentlemen known as The Sinners, tasked with discovering which of eight ladies in Society has been acting as a spy for Napoleon. He is expected to do this by fair means or foul. Alys doesn’t know whether to be distressed or angry when her brother informs her he has invited the Marquis of Deveril, along with several other of his male acquaintances, to join him for a weeklong shoot at their manor house in Worcestershire. The last time the marquis visited Alys’s home, she discovered him with a pistol in his hand as he stood over the dead body of her father. Devil is not looking forward to returning to Newcomb Manor and only accepted Sir Teddy Newcomb’s invitation because of the need to clear Alys Newcomb’s name of any wrongdoing. Not that she would thank Devil for it if she knew that was his intention. Alys believes she has every reason to dislike and distrust him, and nothing Devil says or does will convince her otherwise. From the minute the two of them meet again, sexual tension flares into life and refuses to be extinguished. Much as Alys might fight against it. When circumstances force the two of them into a hasty betrothal that sexual attraction flares out of control. But if Devil didn’t kill Alys’s father, then the real murderer must still be at large…

Book Description

Nathaniel is the 1st book in USA Today Bestselling and Amazon #1 author, Carole Mortimer’s, NEW paranormal series, DRAGON HEARTS. Warriors, from the mists of time? Dragons, of myth and legend? Or both? Taking a much-needed holiday in North Wales, journalist Chloe Evans discovers a castle not listed on any of the dozen or so maps she has of the area. The nearest thing she can find is the remains of a castle that used to be there but crumbled into ruin many centuries before. Her curiosity getting the better of her, Chloe decides to find out more about this imposing grey stone castle and anyone who might live there. The locals, she discovers, call it Pendragon Castle. When Chloe asks them more probing questions some say there are half a dozen male members of the original family still in residence, and that they’re brothers. Others claim there to be more, or less, than that number. But all, without fail, describe those men as being big and muscular, more handsome than any man has a right to be, with eyes capable of mesmerizing and seducing any woman who falls under their spell. Some of those people add a knowing wink, others a warning not to venture too near the castle, and to certainly keep her distance from the men living there. Visitors staying at the same small hotel as Chloe talk of seeing bright lights and helicopters landing on the mountain late at night, and of hearing strange noises that sound like the roars of wild animals. There was a story here, Chloe is certain of it. Whatever the story is regarding Pendragon Castle and the men who lived there, Chloe decides she isn’t leaving Wales until she’s discovered exactly what’s going on. While exploring the area around the castle, Chloe is challenged by the dark and taciturn Nathaniel. A man who fits the description of the castle’s inhabitants exactly: well over six feet tall, handsome as sin, with shoulders wide enough to fill a doorway, and eyes the colour of the clearest emerald. The moment she gazes into those mesmerizing green eyes Chloe realises she should have run while she still could.

Book Description

Single, charming, sophisticated and wealthy, Rourke Steele has zero interest in falling in love or having a relationship. He’d decided that long before the young and beautiful Sophie Hammond walked into his life three years ago. He has the perfect life, working for the security company owned by all six of the Steele brothers, and dating and bedding as many beautiful women as he wants. Why ruin that by settling for one woman? What does it matter if every time he sees Sophie Hammond he wants to drag her off to his bed and do wicked things to that delectable body? It just means he’s a normal red-blooded man, right? Wrong. Because when Sophie is attacked at a wedding they are both attending Rourke doesn’t hesitate to step in and defend her. To hell with his usual charm and sophistication, Sophie is his, damn it. His! Falling instantly and irrevocably in love with one of her six bosses probably wasn’t the wisest thing Sophie had ever done. It wasn’t the worst thing she had ever done either. No, that prize went to trying to sort out her father’s mess without alerting any of the Steele brothers, but most especially Rourke, to what was going on. Something that is no longer an option when she’s attacked while attending the wedding of Logan Steele, Rourke’s twin brother, and Rourke is the one who comes to her rescue. Grateful as she is for that intervention Sophie has no intention of allowing Rourke to just step in and try to take over her life. Never mind that his kisses make her head spin and her knees weak. She’s a big girl and can take care of her own mess, thank you very much. Fireworks will ignite the sky and inanimate objects fly before these two stubborn people admit to their feelings for each other. Author’s Note: Beware of the very sexy & very alpha Steele brothers. These books are HOT!

Book Description

DRAGON REUNION is the 8th and last took book in USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, paranormal dragon shifter series, DRAGON HEARTS. When billionaire Maddox Wilder’s helicopter develops engine problems it forces the pilot to make an emergency landing in North Wales. With a heavy layer of snow on the ground, and a temperature approaching zero, Maddox seeks shelter in the local inn after his pilot volunteers to wait for the arrival of an engineer needed to make the necessary repairs. But Maddox doesn’t remain at the inn for long, somehow feeling himself drawn toward Pendragon Castle perched high up on a nearby snow-covered mountain. Which is odd in itself, because the castle isn’t shown in any of the maps for the area Maddox brings up on line. But the innkeeper assures him that Pendragon Castle exists and has been the property of the Pendragon family for centuries. Within minutes Maddox finds himself standing at the bottom of that mountain, staring up at the medieval fortress, unable to resist that almost magnetic pull drawing him closer and closer. Carys Evans is acting as temporary housekeeper for the Pendragon family while her mother recovers from having an operation and Carys can find a fulltime job of her own. It’s as well the job at the castle is only temporary because Carys is a disaster at it. She’s too young, too trusting, too outgoing, too everything for the very private Pendragon family. When the very tall, very dark, and extremely handsome Maddox Wilder comes calling Carys is instantly aware of the fierce and immediate attraction burning between the two of them, her whole body suddenly feeling alive and responsive in a way it never has before. The Pendragon brothers are less impressed with their visitor but refuse to allow Maddox Wilder to leave until he has explained exactly what he’s doing visiting their castle. There is no way Maddox is going to confide in the arrogant Pendragon brothers that the ‘voice in his head’ told him to come here. Just as that same voice is now telling him that Carys Evans is the woman he has waited his whole life to meet and that she belongs to him. Maddox quickly realizes the Pendragon brothers are hiding a secret that is even more shocking than his own. A secret that totally rocks Maddox’s world and draws him relentlessly toward the truth of who and what he really is.
