  The Adventurer is a Barbara Cartland novel like no other. Set before, during and after World War One, this is not the story of a King, a Lord or a dashing battlefield hero: Frank Swinton is quite the opposite. He is an adventurer: a man determined to raise himself above the drudgery of a
   
  nine-to-five job. Tall, dark and attractive, if not exactly handsome, he uses his charms to swindle lonely ladies out of their money. That is until he’s trapped by his own weakness and greed in a loveless marriage–and hates himself as much as his obsessive and embittered bride. Eventually he manages to unshackle himself, flee overseas and find the courage to fight for his country–but will he ever escape and rediscover his long-lost soul and the love his greed allowed him to leave behind? All is told in this moving story about a man’s search for redemption and that in the end, love is enough.

  The Alpha didn’t want a mate—especially not her.When fate marks her as the destined Luna of the most feared Alpha in the region, she expects a bond… not a sentence. One cold look is all it takes to understand the truth: in his world, she’s an inconvenience, a weakness, an unwanted claim he refuses to acknowledge.But a mate bond doesn’t care about pride, politics, or old grudges.Dragged into pack life and trapped under rules she never agreed to, she’s forced to stand beside a man who treats the bond like a curse—while every wolf around them watches for her to fail. The pack is restless. The council is pressuring him to take control. And something dark is prowling just beyond the borders, drawn to the power of a Luna awakening.She can either shrink into the role he never asked for… or become the kind of Luna no one can ignore.Because the more he pushes her away, the more dangerous it becomes to want him back—and the more the bond starts to reveal a truth neither of them is ready to face.The Alpha’s unwanted mate might be the only one who can save his pack… and his heart.By jesse Shackelford
