Yet for all his size and power, there's something amazingly tender in his touch. Could he really be such a depraved rogue? The only way to find out is to beat the devil at his own game...one tempting kiss at a time.

Her handsome rescuer is only pretending to be her husband… Miss Marie LeBon is a brilliant scientist and a determined spinster—until she awakens in Paris with no memory of the accident that has erased her name and her past. A handsome stranger comes to her rescue, claiming to be her husband...but he’s secretly a British agent, Max D'Avenant, sent to abduct her and learn the truth about a new French weapon. With danger on all sides, the “newlyweds” go into hiding together, and Max soon finds himself torn between his loyalty to the English Crown and his love for this enchanting lady he is sworn to betray. “One of the best romances of the year.

I devoured this book in a day. I just couldn’t put it down. Highly recommended.” – Goodreads reviewer “Shelly Thacker is a terrific writer!

In an age of treachery, when berserkers extort the kings of Scandinavia, a new terror carves her name in the north ... Prince Sigurd of Xanten is one man I wish I never met. He's slaughtered my crew and made me his slave. But when he says he's turning me over to King Gizur, I wish I'd chosen to die on the beach with the others. At least then my death would have been quick. Because when Gizur finds out about my father, quick is the last thing it will be. Fortunately, Sigurd is on truly perilous a mission and he needs Gizur to help him. The problem is any idiot can see Gizur doesn't have the nerve. Few men would. Especially when the runes are cast and the quest is doomed. I, however, am just desperate enough that I'd do anything do anything to win my freedom back. Even if it means facing a terrifying monster. A monster worshipped as a god. A god by the name of Fafnir.
