Captive Melody

WEDDING BELLS FOR LAURA

When a handsome stranger overpowered her in her boudoir right after her marriage ceremony, inexperienced Laura Upton was too frightened to do more than faint. Later, when she awoke, the scarcely-clad beauty found herself on a galloping horse, in the powerful embrace of her virile kidnapper. How dare this riff-raff deprive her of the most romantic night of her life! Stroking her creamy flesh as she struggled, the bold cowboy whispered how wicked a man her husband was--and the ebon-haired beauty didn't know whether she should rejoice she was rescued...or be terrified she'd be ravaged!

DEATH KNELL FOR HER MAN

For five years, Andre Sheridan had been waiting for ruthless Richard Laird to take a wife--so that Andre could pay him back for destroying his own sweetheart. At first, the jet-eyed stranger regarded the slender woman in his embrace the means to an end. But as night after night she shared his blanket and he tended his prisoner, Andre couldn't stem his protective feelings toward her. He knew Laura belonged to his enemy, but out beneath the California stars, all that mattered was that he claim her innocence and make her body sing with the pleasure of his Captive Melody.
