To Catch A Pirate by Jade Parker

Description:
Once caught, it’s harder still to let a pirate go

When Annalisa Townsend’s ship is set upon by pirates in search of her father’s treasure, one of the crew, James Sterling, discovers her in the hold. When he moves to take her necklace, she begs him not to, as it is all she has left of her mother. He accepts a kiss in exchange for the necklace. “A fair trade, m’lady,” he tells her afterward, before disappearing.

A year later, with a forged letter of marque, Annalisa is intent on hunting down the wretched James Sterling and reclaiming her father’s treasure from him. But now she’s in danger of him stealing something far more vulnerable this time: her heart.

Heartless by Jaimey Grant

Description:
Finding herself abandoned after the death of her father, Leandra Harcourt takes a chance on a dark stranger at a small inn. Married, she learns about her husband during his extended absences, discovering more truth and mystery than she ever could have dreamed.

The Duke of Derringer is feared and reviled wherever he goes; he is a man not to be crossed. Finding himself suddenly in need of a wife only interferes with the plans he has already set in motion. Vowing to marry the first woman he meets, he stumbles upon Leandra Harcourt, desperate and alone.

With only sporadic visits home, Derringer finds his wife intriguing, baffling, and oddly desirable. In her prosaic attitude and calm demeanor, he discovers a peacefulness that he's never known in his life and knows he will never find again. While facing a nameless assassin, his search for his missing cousin intensifies. Little does he realize that in reaching his goal, his enemies may reach theirs, endangering his new bride as well.

Twenty-three and single, Riley thinks resolutions should be fun, not hard. Just before midnight, she vows to make the easiest resolution ever: save her pennies and at the end of the year, buy something nice for herself. Easy! ...Or is it?

Tifferz Take:
Jaimey Grant has created a great romance with love, mystery and deception that you won't want to put down. Grant does an excellent job with developing the character, plot and dialogue. I did find that when the villain was brought into the story I did get a bit confused. Other than that I really enjoyed this tail and how it ended! ( You should read Betrayal before this, it helps with knowing some of the characters. I will be reading Heartless in the near future! I purchased this book.

The Marriage Bureau for Rich People by Farahad Zama

From the Cover:
When Mr. Ali retires, he thinks he will take it easy. But soon his constant presence in the household starts to drive his wife crazy. She wants him out of her hair. So what does an Indian man with a wealth of common sense do when his retirement becomes too monotonous for him to stand it? Open a marriage bureau, of course!" "Business gets off to a slow start. But soon there is a steady stream of clients to keep Mr. Ali busy. Business becomes so good that he is even forced to hire an assistant, Aruna, a beautiful young woman with a past she'd rather not discuss." "Mr. Ali's clients are as colorful and varied as India itself. There's the man who wants a tall son-in-law because his daughter is short; the divorced woman who is not necessarily over her ex-husband; a salesman who can't seem to sell himself; and a wealthy young doctor for whom no match is ever perfect. Although his clients go away happy, little does Mr. Ali know that his esteemed Aruna hides a tragedy in her past - a misfortune that the bureau might serendipitously be able to fix." Whether it be an arranged match or not, The Marriage Bureau for Rich People examines what constitutes the perfect match. It shows how some people refuse to make compromises, with themselves and with others, when it comes to matters of the heart. Readers will be transported to India - they will smell the sweet mangoes, feel the languid heat - as Farahad Zama's effortless style reveals a country still grappling with the politics of caste, religion, and civil unrest, all the while delivering a page-turning, delightful read.

Tifferz Take:
First I must confess that I've been to India and I've always been facsinated by its culture. This book is fun, entertaining and an interesting first novel. The author gives you a taste of the mix of mordern and traditional India. I look forward to the next novel. I hope the author will futher develop some of the marriages Mr. Ali has already arranged. This is well written and a very clean romance. I purchased this book.

The Importance of Almack's by Denise Patrick

From the Cover:
Banished and disowned for saving a stranger's life. In Regency England, lineage and vouchers to Almack's are everything, but Pamela Clarkdale has neither. After her father casts her out, she considers herself fortunate to have obtained a position as a companion to an elderly widow. Kitt Covington has sworn off Almack's and marriage. Why attend one when he has no interest in the other? Guilt, however, is a powerful motivator. Knowing he caused Pamela to be thrown out of her home, he proposes a sham betrothal between them to ease his conscience. Kitt's offer is tempting and Pamela agrees, with the caveat that the betrothal will disappear at the end of the season. But not only is Pamela refused vouchers to Almack's, her family is scheming to destroy her to protect a secret she doesn't realize she knows. When the twenty-year-old web of lies and deceit begins to unravel, will Pamela and Kitt discover that Almack's isn't really that important after all?
