  Born a year apart, May and June Anderson were once as close as twins. Time and a loveless marriage changed the once vibrant May into June's timid counterpart. Now, two years after June abruptly disappeared, May receives a letter from her sister, inviting her to visit a mysterious colony in southern California. Eager to match June's boldness for once, May doesn't hesitate. 
   
   
   
  The Colony is located in a magnificent Spanish Revival-style mansion perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific, and is presided over by the group's charismatic leader, Rex. Colony members believe in an afterlife where departed souls mingle, and that the truly enlightened can even summon back the spirits of lost loved ones. May is told that June has recently left on a mission, and she's intrigued enough to accept Rex's invitation to stay until her sister's return. 
   
   
   
  Drawn deeper into the group, and under Rex's seductive spell, May undergoes their initiation ceremony. Yet her questions grow more urgent with June's continued absence—and the warnings of a presumptuous but charming undercover investigator. May has longed for the daring, adventurous life her sister pursued, but her arrival has sparked a dangerous unraveling within the Colony, where nothing and no one is quite as it seems.

  The Civil War is over. But Wyoming Territory is still a battleground for the native tribes who live there. Most folks avoid the area like the plague. But not former Texas Ranger Butch Keeler and his saloon fight buddy Tucker Cobb. They figured Wyoming would be the perfect place to launch the Frontier Overland Company—a rough-and-ready stagecoach operation that dares to go where others fear to tread. Butch and Cobb aren't afraid of much—but their next stagecoach trip could change all that. And it just might be their last . . .

Even though the road to get there is overrun with armed Lakota, Cheyenne, and other deadly threats, Butch and Cobb are determined to help an old friend. Problem is, their worst enemy—a power-hungry business rival and self-described "King"—is out there. Waiting for them. Laying a trap to destroy their operation. And plotting to burn everything to the ground. Over Butch and Cobb's dead bodies . . .

  Praise for The Secret Hunter: 
  4 STARS from Romantic Times: 
  "Saville's romp is intriguing, with amusing characters.... although the sexual content is mild, the sensuality is on the mark, and the villain's identity is up for grabs almost to the end of the book." - Faith V. Smith, Romantic Times 
  "With a wounded hero to sigh over, his precious princess, scandalous secrets about to be exposed and a rambunctious, hairy pug of a matchmaker, THE SECRET HUNTER is definitely a delightful historical." - J.T., Romance Junkies 
  "A lively and engaging Regency romance; author Susanne Saville has crafted a fresh look at the fun that can be had when a hairy matchmaker draws two unlikely protagonists together. Daniel is a hero to admire.... Together with Gwenllian the sexual tension is a palpable thing, humming along through the story....To witness their falling in love is beautiful, romantic and emotional while working together to foil a traitor." - Lettetia, Ecataromance 
  The Secret Hunter was a Finalist in the Desert Rose RWA 2008 Golden Quill contest in the Regency category. It was also a finalist in the RWA Beau Monde Chapter's Royal Ascot Contest.

  What if you had the chance to rewrite your past—and your future? 
  In The Novelist, Sylvia Blair is a woman on the brink: overworked, undervalued, and haunted by losses she can’t outrun. But when a twist of fate hurls her from 2014 into the electric, unpredictable streets of 1978 Manhattan, she’s given a rare gift: the opportunity to face her past, untangle her present, and reclaim her future. 
  Transported to a world without smartphones but brimming with raw humanity, Sylvia discovers a side of herself she thought was lost—while grappling with the pain and love that have shaped her journey. Can she let go of the regrets that anchor her, or will she remain stuck in a loop of what-ifs?

  The third installment of Bernard Cornwell’s bestselling series chronicling the epic saga of the making of England, “like Game of Thrones, but real” (The Observer, London)—the basis for The Last Kingdom, the hit BBC America television series. 
  After achieving victory at King Alfred’s side, Uhtred of Bebbanburg is returning to his home in the North, finally free of his allegiance to the King—or so he believes. An encounter with a vicious slave trader introduces Uhtred to Guthred, the self-proclaimed King of Northumbria. Curious about Guthred’s astounding claim, Uhtred follows him north. But he soon discovers fate has another incredible surprise in store, and begins an unexpected journey that climaxes in the midnight siege of a city thought impregnable—a dangerous seige that results in the forging of England. 
  Lords of the North is Bernard Cornwell’s finest work yet—a breathtaking adventure, but it also tells the story of the creation of English identity, as the English and Danes begin to become one people, appropriating each other’s languages and, thrillingly, fighting side-by-side.
