Page 35 of Passage West


  Heart’s Delight

  Irish immigrant Molly O'Brien has earned herself quite a reputation in Delight, Wisconsin. Raising four orphans all on her own certainly hasn't helped. Nor has the fact that she's just taken in two strangers with serious gunshot wounds, planning to nurse them back to health. There's just one problem. One of the men is an outlaw and the other's a federal marshal—and she has no idea which is which....

  When U.S. Marshal Hodge Egan wakes to a beautiful vision standing over him, he can't believe his good fortune. That is, until he realizes the woman seems to be under the mistaken impression that he's an outlaw. Unfortunately, by the time she realizes the truth, it might be too late for both of them.

  Paradise Falls

  In 1890 Massachusetts, Fiona Downey accepts a teaching position in rural Michigan, populated by few farms and even fewer people.

Attracted to Grayson—but pursued by Fleming—Fiona must decide where her true love lies—and whether that love is worth sacrificing her dearest dreams.

  Ashes of Dreams

  Amanda Jeffrey has not been dealt an easy hand in life. Widowed at a young age, she is left on her own to raise three small boys, tend to her ailing father-in-law, and maintain a languishing horse farm in 1880s Kentucky bluegrass country.

  Irish immigrant Cole Connelly and his son are seeking food and shelter in exchange for honest labor. His rugged presence and quiet Irish charm stir emotions in Amanda that she never thought she'd feel again. But there is danger as the hopes and dreams long buried in ashes begin to smolder and spark to life.

  Duchess of Fifth Avenue

  Plucky young Lana Dunleavy left Ireland with her best friend Siobhan in search of a better life—but New York's harsh streets aren't quite what they expected.

  After tragedy strikes, Lana engages a charming and self-assured confidence man, Jesse Jordan, to teach her the finer points of high society. But Jesse is hiding a secret—and he's about to be trapped by his own deception. For as willing as he is to help the beautiful Lana with her scheme, he never planned on falling in love....

  Captive of Desire
