Featuring A Lady to Lead: Can Helen and Nathaniel put aside their differences long enough to fall in love? When Helen Crofton convinces her friends to raise charity funds selling tarts—despite her lack of experience in business or baking—she’s certain she doesn’t need the advice of the rude Captain Carter (no matter how handsome he is). Happily single, Nathaniel Carter can’t help helping his friend’s beautiful, refined sister-in-law with her business problems. As Helen and Nathaniel work together, the spark of attraction grows between them. When their poor business choices land a friend in jail for murder, they must learn to trust each other in order to save their friend and their fledgling relationship. Freedom’s Ring: Owen has loved Temperance since they were children. Can they ever be more than friends? Temperance Hayes yearns for a life of comfort and security. After her intended is killed, she is adrift until she finds help in the form of her childhood friend, the penniless Owen Randolph. Of course Owen Randolph agrees to help his old friend. He’s loved Temperance since he was five years old. But he also knows they live in different worlds, and she would never choose to live in his. As she spends more time with Owen, Temperance is reminded how good his heart is. Could that be enough to give her the security she craves? When Owen signs up to fight in a war that hasn’t even begun, Temperance will have to decide where her heart and her loyalties lie. Liberty’s Charge: Will Patience choose a charming politician or a dashing patriot? On paper, Gilbert Brand, Continental Congress delegate of uncertain loyalties, is all wrong for patriotic legal scholar Patience Hayes. In person, he’s charming and funny and kind. After a life of hardship, he’s also determined to at least make sure he never misses a meal again by marrying well. He never imagined he’d fall in love with clever and beautiful—and dowry-less—Patience. Can he still find happiness? When a patriot printer makes a play for Patience, she must choose between the man who offers the life she wants and the man she can’t live without. “A Thousand Ships,” a never-before-seen bonus story, exclusive to this collection: With only David’s purse and letter of introduction, can Owen free Nathaniel from jail in occupied Boston? Integrity’s Choice: Fischer wants to court the brilliant, mysterious author Jeanne Dark. Will he discover she’s secretly Constance, the woman he spurned but still loves? A year ago, patriot printer Fischer Marks and Constance Hayes fell in love—until Fischer suddenly broke things off. Even after all this time, he can’t put her out of his mind, but he knows the dangers of love too well. A patriotic manuscript is the perfect distraction: and so is its mysterious author, “Jeanne Dark.” Fischer has no idea who she really is—none other than Constance, whose own heart is still stubbornly broken. As their country debates declaring independence, everyone wants to know who is Jeanne Dark? Constance has to hide more and more—including her heart. When Fischer discovers the truth, can they take a risk on love again? “Christmas Crossing” from A Colonial Christmas: Things look bleak for the Continental Army at the end of 1776, and Owen is grim—until Christmas night, when George Washington leads them across the Delaware for a surprise attack on the Hessians at Trenton. At home, Temperance’s Christmas surprise is an ordeal of its own: going into labor three weeks early. Will their family make it to the new year?
