Done!

Finally finished going through my office shelves for the 3rd & final time.  I swannee there’s nothing else I can remove….These books are used but in excellent condition. Some don’t even look as if they’ve been read.

These are what I saved out to give away here.  First up we have Julia London’s Lockhart Family Highlander Trilogy: (Synopsis & Cover pics from Julia’s site)

   

A gold and brass statue of an ugly beastie holds a special value to the Lockhart family of the Scottish Highlands.  An emerald the size of a goose egg is sealed in its belly.  That emerald could be the answer to all their financial woes.   The only problem is, the English stole it during one of the Border Wars, and the Lockharts must  come down out of the Highlands and travel to London to get it back. 

Next up is HIGHLAND OBSESSION by Dawn Halliday: (Synopsis & pic from Dawn’s site).

 

 

In the Scottish Highlands, two warriors are about to clash over a woman of passion…When the battle lines are drawn, three lovers are lured into a triangle of forbidden passions.

 

 

  

For the romantic suspense lover there’s HUNT HER DOWN #7 & MAKE HER PAY #8 in Roxanne St. Claire‘s Bullet Catcher Series…Each can be read as a stand-alone. Click on the title to read an excerpt at Roxanne’s site.

 

For the paranormal lover we have Sarah McCarty‘s WILD INSTINCT. (Synopsis from Amazon.com)  

Three desperate women-hunted and on the run- bring out the animal instincts in the irresistible males who promise them more than just rescue.  
Garrett-Rejected by his fellow werewolves, he never expects to find his mate in the midst of his mission. And as the heat rises between them, so do the risks.  
Daire-He rejected the strict rules of werewolf society, only to fall in love with the one woman who’s been taught to fear the beast within him.  
Curran-His job is to find a fugitive were-woman and bring her in. Trapping has never been a problem, but he’s never fallen in love with his bounty before. 

 

Last but not least we have Jill Shalvis‘ CHRISTMAS IN LUCKY HARBOR which contains the first 2 novels in the Lucky Harbor Srs. ~ SIMPLY IRRESISTIBLE & THE SWEETEST THING.  (Synopsis and cover pic from Amazon.com)

Simply Irresistible
After losing her boyfriend and her job, Maddie leaves L.A. to claim her inheritance-a ramshackle inn nestled in the little town of Lucky Harbor, Washington. She sees the potential for a new home and a new career-if she can give the inn the makeover it needs. Enter Jax, a tall, handsome contractor who knows exactly what Maddie needs…

The Sweetest Thing
Helping her sister set up the family inn is just the thing to make Tara forget her ex-husband and focus on her new life. Until she meets a sexy, green-eyed sailor determined to keep her hot, bothered, and in his bed. When her ex reappears, Tara must confront her past and decide what she really wants.

So which book(s) would be your choice?  Do you ever clean out your bookshelves?  What would you never part with?  

I still have the Mary Stewart Arthurian Srs. I got in high school, THE CRYSTAL CAVE,  THE HOLLOW HILLS, THE LAST ENCHANTMENT, & THE WICKED DAY. The dust jackets are a bit worse for wear but I wouldn’t part with them for anything.  There are a few old school bodice rippers from high school too, The Sweet Savage Love series, The Wolf and the Dove, & Love Wild and Fair.  My favorites from those early historical days though are ASHES IN THE WIND and MOONSTRUCK MADNESS.  Those heroines and the risks they took, their strength & independence were so amazing to me.  These will always have a place on my shelves.
