Synopsis

Beautiful young orphan Nerina is appalled to find that her uncle and resentful Guardian is forcing her much-loved cousin, Elizabeth, into a marriage of convenience with the disdainful, if handsome and rich, Sir Rupert Wroth.
As if that was not bad enough, Elizabeth is already secretly betrothed to the man she truly loves, an Captain in the Army.
So loyal Nerina exploits her startling similarity to her cousin and takes her place, marrying Lord Wroth and giving Elizabeth time to elope with Adrian Butler, who is about to sail to India with his Regiment.
Having suffered terribly at the hands of her hateful Uncle Herbert and the lecherous Lord Droxburgh, Nerina has come to the conclusian that she hates all men.
And, having discovered that Sir Rupert Wroth's plans to marry Elizabeth were nothing more than a means to carry on his illicit affairs, while keeping up appearances for the sake of Queen Victoria and his ambitious political career, she makes no exception for him.
But what if, in spite of herself, the irrepressible turmoil that Nerina feels in her heart is not hate after all, but the first stirrings of love?

A Ride On the Wild Side 
 
The last place Catherine MacPherson ever expected to find herself was sitting on a Greyhound bus, handcuffed to a surly bounty hunter, with only a suitcase of her twin sister’s flashy, shrink-wrap clothing to wear! Just two hours ago, the respectable schoolteacher was sitting quietly at home when this big macho hunk crashed through her door, mistook her for her errant Miami showgirl sister, and hauled her off in his strong arms. And no matter how sexy he is, she’s furious! 
 
Twins—ha! Sam McKade’s the last person to ever fall for that line. He’s finally got the gorgeous, leggy redhead just where he wants her—and no matter what outrageous tricks she pulls, he’s not letting her get away. 
 
The problem is, she’s a lot smarter—and sweeter—than he’d expected. And he’s got this deep-buried tenderness she hadn’t expected. And their kisses are so hot, they just might burn up . . . before they sort it all out.
