Table of Contents
Hugh contemplated the situation across the room with growing anticipation.
His nightly brawl was going to come about rather easily tonight, it seemed. As he made his way through the crowd, Hugh kept his eyes on the girl, who was struggling with the biggest of the men facing her.
“Your pardon,” Hugh said politely, making a slight bow. “Is aught amiss?”
The big man surveyed Hugh’s muscular frame from head to foot, then replied, “Leave us be.”
Hugh smiled. “Good sir, you mistake me.” He pushed past them. “I addressed the lady.” He looked into her frightened face inquiringly. “Mistress,” he began, then stopped and held his breath. She was more beautiful than he had expected, more beautiful than any woman he had seen in a long time. Without thinking, Hugh reached up to pull the hood of her cloak away from her head, causing her wheat blond hair to spill free and removing the shadows that hid her eyes.. .sky blue eyes that gazed at him, filled with pleading.
“Please, sir,” she whispered, “I pray you, help me.”
With only those few words, falling from her pretty lips, what had begun as a game for Hugh became something deadly serious.
Dear Reader,
Sparks fly when a rogue knight who is running from his past rescues a strong-willed noblewoman who is running from her future in Susan Paul’s The Heiress Bride. We hope you enjoy this lively medieval romance, which is the second book in the author’s Bride Trilogy.
Love and loyalty clash in Devil’s Dare by Laurie Grant, a fast-paced Western about a sweet-talking cowboy and a straitlaced preacher’s daughter whom he mistakes for a soiled dove.
The Gambler’s Heart is the third book in Gayle Wilson’s Heart Trilogy. This passionate Regency features a warscarred French gambler who acquires a wife as payment for a debt, and must learn to accept her love for him.
And our fourth selection for the month, Elizabeth Lane’s Lydia, is the touching story of a former Union spy who moves to Colorado and falls in love with the brother of a man who died as a result of her actions.
Whatever your taste in reading, we hope that Harlequin Historicals will keep you coming back for more. Please keep a lookout for all four titles, available wherever Harlequin books are sold.
Sincerely,
Tracy Farrell
Senior Editor

The Heiress Bride
Susan Paul
SUSAN PAUL
lives in Duarte, California, with her husband, two young daughters, two dogs and two cats. She started her first novel when she was in her early teens, but eventually put it aside, unfinished, in favor of more important interests…such as boys. Now happily married and—somewhat—settled down, she’s returned to her love of the written word, and finds it much easier to finish the books she starts.
England, 1416
