February Foreigns...

MILIONARIO DA PRIMA PAGINA

di LIZ FIELDING
Chi lo ha detto che i milionari devono essere sempre solo belli e dannati? Esistono anche quelli romantici e sognatori e ve lo dimostreremo!
Questo è il momento che aspettavo! Claire Thackeray non sta più nella pelle: probabilmente è sul punto di scrivere il pezzo che le spalancherà le porte di qualche prestigiosa testata giornalistica nazionale. La proprietà di Cranbrook Park, appartenente da secoli alla stessa famiglia, sta per essere messa all'asta e lei potrebbe sapere prima di tutti chi sarà il fortunato che se l'aggiudicherà! Claire vive lì da quando è nata, lì ci lavoravano i suoi genitori e ora lei ci abita con la sua piccola. Quando scopre che il futuro proprietario sarà Hal North, il ragazzo ribelle che le ha rubato il cuore di adolescente, decide che oltre allo scoop deve avere anche lui.

STJÄRNKLARA NÄTTER/Min nye chef/SÅ NÄRA

STJÄRNKLARA NÄTTER
Joanne Winslow blir helt kall när hon inser att systern förälskat sig i sin chef och är beredd att offra sitt äktenskap för att åka med honom till Norge. Utan att tänka sig för söker hon upp Brad Lancing och erbjuder sig att ta systerns plats. Att han verkar vara ute efter mer än en sekreterare bekymrar henne inte. I alla fall inte till en början ...

Min nye chef
Han är lång, mörk och snygg ... och allt en kvinna kan önska sig. Jag har svårt att sluta tänka på vår natt tillsammans, men Samos är ju min chef! Problemet är att han vill fortsätta träffas, och som vd är han inte direkt van vid att någon säger nej. Vad ska jag göra?

SÅ NÄRA
Jacqui är på flykt – från jobbet som barnflicka. Hon vill inte komma ett barn nära igen bara för att i nästa sekund behöva skiljas från det. Men en natt tvingas hon ta hand om föräldralösa Maisie, och natten blir till dagar ... veckor ... Snart är Jacquis hjärta återigen i fara. Och det klappar inte bara för Maisie utan också för husets herre: den underbare Harry.

Amores olvidados-Su vida secreta


Fleur Gilbert y Matt Hanover se habían casado en secreto, creyendo que el amor que sentían el uno por el otro podría acabar con la disputa que enfrentaba a sus familias. Pero se habían equivocado. Seis solitarios años más tarde, Fleur había dejado de soñar con volver a ver a Matt. Sin embargo, Matt no había podido olvidarla… ni perdonarla.

Lady Gabriella March era la perfecta diosa de la clase alta... o al menos eso era lo que pensaba el editor de la revista para la que trabajaba. En realidad era sencillamente Ellie March, limpiadora y aspirante a escritora, que estaba utilizando como inspiración la mansión en la que trabajaba. La repentina llegada del propietario iba a poner en peligro su carrera como escritora. Pero lo más peligroso era él, el guapísimo doctor Benedict Faulkner. Su jefe no se parecía en nada a la imagen de viejo académico que se había hecho de él…

THE GREAT ADVENT CALENDAR GIVEAWAY

DAY NINE

9th December

Ack, it’s the weekend and there’s no one around but me to tell you what happening today! (The picture is a clue to the whereabouts of the missing Diana, btw!)

It’ll have to be brief, I’m still working on a book that is turning out to be the biggest “pineapple” in the world. Two chapters to go and not an ending in sight…

Anyway, the winner of the book behind the 7th December door in the Advent Calendar, A NANNY FOR KEEPS, is Joanne from Lincoln. The book is on it’s way, Joanne. I do hope you enjoy it.

Today the book behind the door is AND MOTHER MAKES THREE. This has a special place in my heart as it was the first of my books to be released retail in the US. Until then they'd only be available to subscribers to the Book Club. And it received a Gold Medal review from Romantic Times. Pretty much perfect, in fact.

I was inspired to write this by something my mother said when she was godmother to a little girl called Lisa. She already had older sisters called Linda and Lesley and my mother shook her head and said "That'll cause trouble when they're older..." All those Miss L .... Of course in those days mail came through the letterbox -- as it still did when I wrote the book.

For a chance to win this book just send me an email at liz @lizfielding.com, with Day Nine in the subject line and your name and address in the body. No question today -- it's Sunday, the day of rest -- but if you haven't already received the first chapter of Diana's story, just say, and I'll send you that as a little taster.

THE GREAT ADVENT CALENDAR GIVEAWAY

DAY SEVEN

7th December


You all think Sheikh Zahir is hot...

You are so right. He’s hotter than bird’s eye chillies. And funny, too. And oceans deep. And last night… Well, last night I realised that I’ve got to stop this right now. Whatever this is.

Best chauffeur uniform. Hat on straight. No more talking. Or anything else. I might be the nearest thing to Cinderella that Sheikh Zahir has ever met, but there are no fairy godmothers going to fix this one for me. I’m a mother. I have responsibilities. It’s making a life for Freddy that’s important and I need this job.

Right. So where was I?

Day Five. You all got Sophie Harrington as the heroine of A SURPRISE CHRISTMAS PROPOSAL and congratulations go to Therese, whose name came out of the hat. Your prize, THE BEST MAN & THE BRIDESMAID is on its way to you in Australia, Therese; have fun with the ducky Daisy and the totally gorgeous Robert.

And now it’s time to open the door to Day Seven. Here we go and it’s -- A NANNY FOR KEEPS.

Ah, now, this book is a good old-fashioned fairy story. Jacqui Moore is on the run from the job she loves. She can’t bear the thought of getting close to another child only to lose that love in the space of a heartbeat. But she’s conned into doing one last “universal aunt” run for her friend's nanny agency, delivering Maisie to her grandma on her way to the airport.

The child is a total princess, the grandmother is not there and, having climbed the big nasty hill in her precious, but aged, “Beetle”, Jacqui finds herself faced with the magnificent, scarred (and scary) local giant, Harry Talbot.

Here’s a little quote from the front of the book:

“He was beautiful. Lean to the bone, hard , sculptured, his was the kind of body artists used for their life classes.

“Which made the scars lacerating his back, scars which he hadn’t moved quickly enough to hide from her, all the more terrible.

“Without thinking, she reached out as if to touch him, take the pain into her own body.”

Mmmm… Liz said, “Jack & the Beanstalk”. I’m thinking maybe “Beauty & the Beast”.

For a chance to win the book and make up your own mind about that, email Liz at liz @lizfielding.com with Day Seven in the subject line, your name and address in the body and the answer to today’s question, which is: Which fellow "Harlequin Romance" author designed and maintains Liz's website? You'll find the answer here.
