A Conquista de Natal is the Portuguese edition of The Christmas Conquest, a Regency romance by Claire Delacroix

O amor não fazia parte do plano quando este casamento foi arranjado…

Rhys Bettencourt, Barão Trevelaine, pretendia, a todo custo, evitar a maldição da família. Um casamento arranjado com uma intelectual de fortuna deveria assegurar a produção de ao menos um herdeiro. Afinal, eram as esposas amadas pelos Bettencourt que sempre morriam no parto. Contudo, a prática Catherine minou o esquema do marido ao roubá-lo de seu coração. A única forma de Rhys protegê-la é negar satisfação física a ambos, indo contra seus próprios desejos.

Catherine Carruthers contentou-se em se casar por praticidade e aceitou um casamento arranjado para agradar à família. No entanto, dois anos mais tarde, Catherine está certa de que o marido arrojado e aristocrata se arrepende da escolha que fez e que o casamento deles nunca será nada mais. Ela aceita um convite para passar o Natal na Mansão Rockmorton, e assim decidir se deixa Rhys e volta para a casa do pai. Contudo, ao chegar, Catherine descobre páginas de conselhos sensuais deixados no quarto dela, assim como um Rhys determinado a convencê-la a ficar. O casamento deles pode ser salvo?

Armada com informações, e com pouco a perder, Catherine embarca em uma campanha de sedução que Rhys será impotente para resistir, mesmo que ele tema o destino de Catherine caso ele se renda à tentação. Preso entre o amor e uma maldição miserável, Rhys conseguirá encontrar um jeito de manter a querida esposa em segurança e ao seu lado?

The Scot & the Sorceress, book two of the Blood Brothers trilogy of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix

Embittered by his losses and thwarted in his pursuit of vengeance, Murdoch is sworn to avenge his father by striking a blow against his enemy, the Silver Wolf. But the wise woman of the woods offers herself in exchange for peace, Murdoch cannot resist temptation. The mysterious beauty lights a fire in his blood, a need for more than vengeance, and Murdoch finds himself enchanted.

Nyssa is blessed with visions of the future to come, but believes that she is the last of her lineage of healers. When she dreams that her sister’s daughter yet lives but is in peril, she knows she must find the child, defend her and teach her. She strikes a bargain with Murdoch, a warrior with fearsome fighting skills, to aid in her quest, never guessing that her need for his touch will be so overwhelmingly powerful—or that she has the power to heal his wounds from the past.

Bound together by passion, Murdoch and Nyssa journey north to confront the shadows of her past. When Nyssa surrenders to her enemies for the sake of her sister’s child, Murdoch realizes that he must defend justice everywhere, beginning with the rescue of his beloved—no matter the cost to himself. Can Nyssa and Murdoch each relinquish the burden of the past to claim the promise of a future together?

The Widow’s Wager in Italian

My Regency romance, The Widow’s Wager, is now available in an Italian edition!

La scommessa di una giovane vedova is the Italian translation of The Widow's Wager, a Regency romance by Claire Delacroix

Si era sposata una volta per dovere, ma si sposerà di nuovo solo per amore…

Da sempre, il cuore di Eliza North era in possesso dell’amico di suo fratello maggiore, Nicholas Emerson. Ma Nicholas fu sempre stato ignaro di Eliza, e quando lui acquistò una commissione e partì per la guerra, lei invece si sposò. Tornata a casa del fratello da vedova, incontrerà di nuovo il tenente Emerson rendendosi conto che nessuno dei loro sentimenti è cambiato. Accetterà la richiesta di lui di fare da chaperon alla sorella minore di lui, Helena, sperando di poter ancora conquistare la sua attenzione, con l’aiuto della misteriosa signora Oliver e della sua guida alla seduzione.

Nicholas Emerson non avrebbe mai potuto aspirare a sposare la figlia di un duca, soprattutto una persona così pragmatica come Eliza. Il fatto che lei si fosse sposata per quello che considerava un capriccio dell’amore lo portò a chiedersi quanto bene conoscesse Eliza. Lei era ancora l’unica donna che cattura la sua attenzione, ma lui sapeva che le sue ferite gli avrebbero impedito di sposarsi. Tuttavia, non potrà resistere all’opportunità di richiedere l’assistenza di Eliza per la sorella Helena e la possibilità di condividere la sua compagnia.

Nessuno dei due prevederà il comportamento selvaggio di Helena o la loro necessaria alleanza per difenderne la sua reputazione. Affidata al manoscritto dei consigli della signora Oliver sulle arti seduttive, Eliza metterà a frutto i suoi consigli, con grande stupore di Nicholas. Come potrà rifiutare la donna che ama, pur sapendo di non poter mai assicurarle la felicità? In bilico tra l’onore e l’amore, Nicholas dovrà accettare la sua eredità dalla guerra perché questa coppia abbia un futuro: Eliza è la donna che potrà guarire le sue ferite per sempre?
