MORE TO TEXAS THAN COWBOYS
By Roz Denny Fox
Superromance (January 2006)
ISBN 0 373 71320 7

www.Korynna.com/RozFox

More To Texas Than Cowboys is book number four in the
five-book continuity for Superromance: Home To Loveless
County.

In all of the books at least one character is returning to
the Hill Country community. Homestead, a fictional town,
is dying. A newly elected mayor dreams up buying the homes
and land for back taxes, and through a Home Free program,
entices new blood to the area.

In book 4, Greer Bell sees the ad as an opportunity to
build a future for her daughter even if it means returning
to a place she left under sad circumstances due to an
illegitimate pregnancy. Her pastor and parents joined
together to send her away to give up her baby. But, in
Colorado Greer met people who helped her learn a career
where she could keep her child. The last person Greer
expects to meet in Homestead is Noah Kelley, the former
pastor's son who has taken over the church. Greer has
difficulty believing that Noah holds vastly different views
on everything than did his dad. He needs to convince her
that the two of them can make a better life together.

WHEN YOU LOVE SOMEONE
By Susan Johnson
Brava (January, 2006)
ISBN: 1575668114

From New York Times bestselling author Susan Johnson comes
a deliciously daring new novel of love, passion, and
exquisite temptation…
Some men are not for marrying. They have no interest in
being dutiful, respectable husbands. What they offer is a
sensual paradise to any woman who dares take it. And Julius
D’Abernon, Marquis of Darley, is the master of the game.
Julius’s scandalous exploits have inflamed the pages of The
Tatler for years. It is said he can seduce any woman with
one of his smiles. Julius can have any woman he wants, but
bedding Lady Grafton? That would be a challenge indeed.
The very reputable Elspeth, Lady Grafton, is as
refreshingly candid and quick-witted as she is beautiful
and vibrant. Pity that she is the virtual prisoner of her
tyrannical, aged husband, a man who cannot gratify his wife
in any way. Such a woman should, nay, needs to experience
the joys of passion that Julius is ever so qualified to
administer—selflessly, of course. One kiss will get her
into his chambers. But one kiss turns out to be more than
he bargained for and yet not nearly enough…
