An untamed man as immovable as a Highland mountain... Fergus Mackinnon, autocratic Laird of Achnasheen, likes to be in charge.

He sees no reason for his bride-when he finds her-to be any different. A headstrong woman from the warm and passionate south... Marina Lucchetti knows all about fighting her way through a wall of masculine arrogance. In her native Florence, she''s become a successful artist, no easy feat for a woman. Now a commission to paint a series of Highland scenes promises to spread her fame far and wide. When a carriage accident strands her at Achnasheen for a few weeks, it''s a mixed blessing. The magnificent landscape offers everything her artistic soul could desire. If only she can resist the impulse to smash her easel across the laird''s obstinate head. When two fiery souls come together, a conflagration flares. Marina is Fergus''s worst nightmare-a woman who defies a man''s guidance. Fergus challenges everything Marina believes about a woman''s right to choose her path. No two people could be less suited. But when irresistible passion enters the equation, good sense soon jumps into the loch. Will the desire between Fergus and Marina blaze hot, then fade to ashes?

In print at last, two of Anna Campbell''s most magical Christmas stories!

Her Christmas Earl No good deed goes unpunished... To save her hen-witted sister from scandal, Philippa Sanders ventures into a rake''s bedroom - and into his power. Now her reputation hangs by a thread and only a hurried marriage can rescue her. Is the Earl of Erskine the heartless libertine the world believes? Or will Philippa discover unexpected honor in a man notorious for his wild ways? Blair Hume, the dissolute Earl of Erskine, has had his eye on the intriguing Miss Sanders since he arrived at this deadly dull house party. Now a reckless act delivers this beguiling woman into his hands as a delightful Christmas gift. Is fate offering him a fleeting Yuletide diversion? Or will this Christmas Eve encounter spark a passion that lasts a lifetime? A Pirate for Christmas Pursued by the pirate... Bess Farrar might be an innocent village miss, but she knows enough about the world to doubt Lord Channing''s motives when he kisses her the very day they meet. After all, local gossip insists that before this dashing rake became an earl, he sailed the Seven Seas as a ruthless pirate. Bewitched by the vicar''s daughter... Until he unexpectedly inherits a title, staunchly honorable Scotsman Rory Beaton has devoted his adventurous life to the Royal Navy. But he sets his course for tempestuous new waters when he meets lovely, sparkling Bess Farrar. Now this daring mariner will do whatever it takes to convince the spirited lassie to launch herself into his arms and set sail into the sunset. A Christmas marked by mayhem. Wooing his vivacious lady, the new Earl of Channing finds himself embroiled with matchmaking villagers, an eccentric vicar, mistaken identities, a snowstorm, scandal, and a rascally donkey. Life at sea was never this exciting. The gallant naval captain''s first landlocked Christmas promises hijinks, danger, and passion - and a breathtaking chance to win the love of a lifetime.

Golden Days... Famous for her agricultural innovations, Amy, Lady Mowbray has never had a romantical thought in her life. Well, apart from her short-lived crush on London''s handsomest man, Lord Pascal, when she was a brainless 14-year-old. She even chose her late husband because he owned the best herd of beef cattle in England! But fate steps in and waltzes this practical widow out of her rustic retreat into the glamour of the London season. When Pascal pursues her, all her adolescent fantasies come true. Those fantasies turn disturbingly adult when grown-up desire enters the equation. Amy plunges headlong into a reckless affair that promises pleasure beyond her wildest dreams - until she discovers that this glittering world hides damaging secrets and painful revelations set to break a country girl''s tender heart. All that glitters... Gervaise Dacre, Lord Pascal needs to marry money to save his estate, devastated after a violent storm. He''s never much liked his reputation as London''s handsomest man, but it certainly comes in handy when the time arrives to seek a rich bride. Unfortunately, the current crop of debutantes bores him silly, and he finds himself praying for a sensible woman with a generous dowry. When he meets Dashing Widow Amy Mowbray, it seems all his prayers have been answered. Until he finds himself in thrall to the lovely widow, and his mercenary quest becomes dangerously complicated. Soon he''s much more interested in passion than in pounds, shillings and pence. What happens if Amy discovers the sordid truth behind his whirlwind courtship? And if she does, will she see beyond his original, selfish motives to the ardent love that lies unspoken in his sinful heart?

Home is the sailor, home from the sea... Five years after he''s lost off the coast of South America, presumed dead, Captain Robert Nash escapes cruel captivity, and returns to London and the bride he loves, but barely knows. When he stumbles back into the family home, he''s appalled to find himself gate-crashing the party celebrating his wife''s engagement to another man. This gallant naval officer is ready to take on any challenge; but five years is a long time, and beautiful, passionate Morwenna has clearly found a life without him. Can he win back the wife who gave him a reason to survive his ordeal? Or will the woman who haunts his every thought remain eternally out of reach? Love lost and found? Or love lost forever? Since hearing of her beloved husband''s death, Morwenna Nash has been mired in grief. After five bleak years without him, she must summon every ounce of courage and determination to become a Dashing Widow and rejoin the social whirl. She owes it to her young daughter to break free of old sorrow and find a new purpose in life, even if that means accepting a loveless marriage. It''s a miracle when Robert returns from the grave, and despite the awkward circumstances of his arrival, she''s overjoyed that her husband has come back to her at last. But after years of suffering, he''s not the handsome, laughing charmer she remembers. Instead he''s a grim shadow of his former dashing self. He can''t hide how much he still wants her--but does passion equal love? Can Morwenna and Robert bridge the chasm of absence, suffering and mistrust, and find their way back to each other?

For this reckless widow, love is the most dangerous game of all. Caroline, Lady Beaumont, arrives in London seeking excitement after ten dreary years of marriage and an even drearier year of mourning. That means conquering society, dancing like there''s no tomorrow, and taking a lover to provide passion without promises. Promises, in this dashing widow''s dictionary, equal prison. So what is an adventurous lady to do when she loses her heart to a notorious rake who, for the first time in his life, wants forever? Devilish Silas Nash, Viscount Stone is in love at last with a beautiful, headstrong widow bent on playing the field. Worse, she''s enlisted his help to set her up with his disreputable best friend. No red-blooded man takes such a challenge lying down, and Silas schemes to seduce his darling into his arms, warm, willing and besotted. But will his passionate plots come undone against a woman determined to act the mistress, but never the wife?
