Harlequin Reads
Here are some fun Harlequin Reads!
The Billionaire's Bride of Vengeance by Miranda Lee Though he's superrich and supereligible, marriage hasn't been on Russell McClain's agenda. Instead the handsome Sydney tycoon is focused on personal revenge—and Nicole Power, his sworn enemy's daughter, is central to his plan. She will pay for her fraudster father's sins. Russell will ruthlessly seduce her, bed her and discard her….But when Russell's desire for Nicole becomes very real and very strong, one night is not enough. However, making Nicole his willing wife might just satisfy his need for vengeance…. Harlequin Blaze Made You Look by Jamie Sobrato From the safety of her living room, Arianna Day has been enjoying the sensual maneuvers of the man she's dubbed Sir Sex-a-Lot. Watching her neighbor has fueled more than one of her steamy fantasies, which makes him the perfect candidate to end her bout of celibacy. She's not looking for commitment—she just wants some of what he freely gives.Too bad seducing Noah Kellerman is more complicated than she thought. Oh, sure, the between-the-sheets—and the on-the-desk and the against-the-wall—action is everything she wants. But their physical closeness seems to have encouraged Noah to get close emotionally. Can Arianna give up being the next woman in his window to be the only woman in his life? Silhouette Desire
Texan's Wedding-Night Wager by Charlene Sands
No one walked away from this Texas mogul…especially not his wife! So when Cara chose to leave rather than play second fiddle to his company, Kevin plotted his revenge. Four years later, she returned, intent on finalizing their divorce. But Cara had no clue that Kevin had constructed the perfect payback plan. It's a wager she can't refuse. The divorce would be official…if she agreed to one last week of playing house. And nothing would be off-limits.
Silhouette Nocturne
Moon Kissed by Michele Hauf
Escaping from bloodthirsty vampires, Belladonna Reynolds ran straight into the arms of a werewolf. As a man Severo drew her in with his dark good looks; as a beast he astounded her with his insatiable sensual appetite. Whether afraid or aroused, Bella fled to his lair when threatened by an evil monster of the night….Severo tried to keep Bella—his mate—safe from the vampiress who held a malicious desire for revenge against him, but he alone wasn't enough. Now Bella had taken the form of his most cursed enemy. How could he desire the very thing he'd spent his life destroying? And even if he did, what would the werewolf do to Bella on the next full moon?

Harlequin is hosting another writing competition. I (Heart) Harlequin Presents Seduction Contest will be open until November 2, 2009. In honor of this competition I will be dedicating one column every month to Presents authors and their books.
Harlequin Presents are books about women who are looking for treasures of the world, but to the men-his woman is the true treasure.
THE PRINCE'S CAPTIVE WIFE by MARION LENNOX
Nine years ago Prince Andreas Karedes returned to his island kingdom of Aristo in the Mediterranean Sea to take up his regal duties, not knowing that Holly, the sweet Australian girl with whom he'd briefly fallen in love, had become pregnant….
Tragically, Holly lost their baby. She remained on her parents' farm to be near her tiny son's final resting place, wishing Andreas would return!
A royal scandal is about to break: a dirt-digging journalist has discovered Holly's secret! Andreas's childhood sweetheart must come and face him. Passion runs high as Andreas issues an ultimatum—to avoid disgrace, Holly must become his bride!
A BIT ABOUT MARION LENNOX
Marion's now written over 50 romance novels. She wrote under the pseudonym Trisha David to separate her Tender Romance novels from her Medical Romance books, so if you're looking for older books, try Trisha.

Kathleen O'Reilly
Kathleen O'Reilly wrote her first romance at the age of eleven, which to her undying embarrassment was read aloud to her class. After taking over twenty years to recover from the profound distress, she is now proud to finally announce her career - a romance author. Now she is the award-winning author of nearly twenty romances published in countries all over the world. Kathleen lives in New York with her husband and their two children who outwit her daily.
Kathleen shares a little with us from her latest release Hot Under Pressure.
“Hot Under Pressure is a Harlequin Blaze that answers that long-suffering question: If air travel is going to be such a huge pain to deal with these days, can a single woman please sit next to a hot, single man who’s you know, nice? Sometimes (usually only in fiction), the answer is *yes*.I got the story idea when I was doing a lot of flying in 2007 and I spent as much time on the tarmac as I did in the air. After one really awful delay, I thought to myself, “Self, you know this getting stuck would make a great book plot. Two people grounded at the airport with nothing better to do it.” And voila, the book was born.”
