“You’re a most unusual woman,Briana O’Neil,” Keane said.
“I’ve never known a highborn woman who mingled with the servants.”
“Highborn.” She gave a snort of derision.
“You have to admit that the O’Neil family is far from poor.”
“Aye. But it’s none of my doing. We have no say over where we’ll be born or how we’ll be taught. What we can choose is how we’ll live our lives once the decisions are in our own hands.”
“And so you choose to live without boundaries.”
Briana thought about it a moment. “If you mean without boundaries of wealth or poverty, aye. It isn’t the coin in a man’s pocket that makes him hero or knave. It’s what’s in his heart. His soul.”

Dear Reader,
Autumn is such a romantic season—fall colors, rustling leaves, big sweaters and, for many of you, the kids are back in school! So, as the leaves fall, snuggle up in a cozy chair and let us sweep you away to the romantic past!
With over thirty books to her name, bestselling author Ruth Langan knows how to bring the fantasy of falling in love to life. Briana, set in England and Ireland, is the final book of THE O’NEIL SAGA. It’s the love story of a feisty Irish noblewoman and the lonely, tormented landowner who first saves her life—and then succumbs to her charms!
In The Doctor’s Wife, by the popular Cheryl St.John, scandalous secrets are revealed but love triumphs when a waitress “from the other side of the tracks” marries a young doctor in need of a mother for his baby girl. Branded Hearts by Diana Hall is an intriguing Western about a young cowgirl bent on revenge who must fight her feelings for her boss, an enigmatic cattle rancher. Jacqueline Navin’s evocative story, Strathmere’s Bride, features a duke who suddenly finds himself the single father of his two orphaned nieces, and in dire need of a wife! But who will he choose— the proper lady or the girls’ very improper governess?
Enjoy. And come back again next month for four more choices of the best in historical romance.
Sincerely,
Tracy Farrell
Senior Editor
