Book One: A Murderous Valentine Admiral Charles Shackleford’s retirement isn’t going quite according to plan. Having been instrumental in improving the lives of so many (his words – others might be inclined to call it something slightly different), he's struggling to reignite the spark in...

It's not often that a fledgling career in Event Management kicks off with the wedding of a Hollywood superstar. Of course the fact that this particular Hollywood star is marrying her best friend might have had something to do with the fact that former art gallery owner Kit Davies landed the job. That, and the fact that she was about to become homeless and penniless. But organizing her friend Victory's big fat Hollywood wedding in the small yachting haven of Dartmouth without alerting the media is not for the faint hearted.

Kit Davies has been dating the gorgeous Captain Jason Buchannan for six months. Six whole months of being wheeled out as his significant other at various Naval functions. While she's not convinced she has the makings of a future Officer's wife, things have been pretty good, and at least she hasn't caused a diplomatic incident—yet. Then one memorable evening, Jason drops a bombshell. His father's health is failing and he wants to retire from the Royal Navy, and relocate to his crumbling ancestral home in the wilds of Scotland. And he wants Kit to go with him.

The second book in Beverley Watt's thrilling Shackleford and Daughters series of romantic comedies, set in the Victorian period...

Reverend Shackleford war ratlos. Er hatte wirklich geglaubt, dass seine Probleme vorbei wären, wenn er seine älteste Tochter Grace mit einem äußerst wohlhabenden Adligen verheiratet hätte. Aber wie der Pfarrer nun allmählich erkannte, reichte es nicht aus, einen reichen Duke in der Familie...

Reverend Augustus Shackleford hat nur ein Ziel: für jede seiner acht eigensinnigen Töchter einen wohlhabenden Ehemann mit Adelstitel zu finden. Ein beinahe unmögliches Unterfangen, da die jungen Damen nach seiner eigenen Einschätzung nicht den Hauch einer damenhaften Ader in ihren acht Leibern besitzen. Wo er Gentlemen finden wird, die willig–oder töricht–genug sind, sich dieser Aufgabe zu stellen, bleibt ein Rätsel, das selbst göttliches Eingreifen auf die Probe stellen könnte.
