Sorry, summer has been nibbling away at my online time, but I've been admiring the new summaries in the proper way now. That house one seems to work pretty well, although possibly not like this:

593) A Ranch to Call Home by Carol Arens
Melanie Bush is devastated when Arnold Rimmer arrives claiming that her new, perfect house doesn’t belong to her absent fiancé – but to him! Until he can prove it, however, Mel isn’t going anywhere. But living side by side with the alluring rancher is temptation itself. And suddenly this house starts to feel an awful lot like the home she’s always longed for…


594) His Wicked Charm by Candice Camp
Toshiko Sato mistrusts Jack Harkness from the moment she meets him. He’s frivolous, rash, challenging and, worst of all, a flirt. Jack knows how Tosh feels about him – he just wishes she wasn’t so gorgeous, that he wasn’t so attracted to her.
But when Jack’s sisters are inexplicably kidnapped, Tosh’s own curiosity and stubbornness get the better of her, and she’s swept into the investigation. The more Jack and Tosh discover, the more they’re convinced that the answers lie deep within her childhood home, Barrow House.


597) A Cowboy of Convenience by Stacy Henrie
A real home—it’s what Eddie the Shipboard Computer dearly wants for his young son. Yet the ramshackle property he just inherited hardly qualifies. He can’t afford the repairs — until foreman Krevlornswath suggests they start a dude ranch together. For propriety’s sake, they’ll need a marriage in name only… a practical solution for two wary hearts.
Years ago, Lorne convinced Eddie to marry the Third Doctor, a man of means, never realizing how cruel his husband could be. Guilt-ridden, he intends to secure the lovely widower’s future. But despite his reluctance to get close to anyone, this union might do more than fix Eddie’s ranch. It could open the door to a warm, loving future…

The mind boggles...


598) Falling For the Highland Rogue by Ann Lethbridge
Disgraced lady Amy Pond lives in the dark world of the city’s seedy underbelly. She’s used and abused, yearning for freedom, and her distrust of men runs deep… until she meets Highland rogue Gene Hunt.
Whisky runner Gene lives outside the law and is used to looking danger in the eye. Amy may just prove to be his most dangerous challenge yet. Her beauty is unrivalled, but it’s her fire that lures Gene. He’ll do anything to save Amy – even face her inevitable betrayal…


599) The Nanny’s Little Matchmakers by Danica Favorite
Steel intends to tame the Master’s five mischievous children, even though every other nanny has fled. He needs this job — and the Master’s brood sorely needs affection. Perhaps their widowed papa does too. But when the children begin scheming to make him their new father, Steel must resist. He’s seen too many bad marriages to want one of his own.
the Master has come to Leadville, Colorado, to escape a scandal, not find a husband. After the disaster of his first marriage, he’s sure he isn’t husband material. Though Steel’s tender care is working wonders with his children, the Master knows he should keep his feelings to himself. But can two wary hearts deny the dearest wish of five eager matchmakers?

*awards it most accidentally sinister summary of the day*


602) The Warrior’s Runaway Wife by Denise Lynn
The notorious Lady of Roul…
…must take him as her groom!
Lord Del Tarrant flees his unwanted betrothal to an elderly warlord, only to be hunted down and returned to King the Fifth Doctor’s court by fearsome Lydia Bennet, Lady of Roul, a legendary warrior with a heart of ice — and a kiss of fire. Now Del is bound to Lydia — and to her bed — when Lydia is commanded to wed him instead!

NOt something Lydia'd have a problem with, I feel. Unless Dayna came after them...


604) Forbidden Jewel of India by Louise Allen
To obey her duty is to deny her heart...
Nyssa of Traken is in danger. The daughter of an Indian princess and an English peer, she's the perfect pawn in the opulent courts of Rajasthan.
Even so, she will not return to the father who rejected her. Arrogant angrezi Major Tegan Jovanka is charged with bringing the alluring Princess safely to her new life in Calcutta. Tegan's mission is to protect, to serve - but under the searing Indian sun an initial attraction unfurls into a forbidden temptation. This beautiful, impossible Princess tests the very limits of her honour - especially when Tegan is left with only one option to keep Nyssa safe: marriage. But the fast-flowing waters of the Ganges determine a different fate, and duty may separate them for ever…


606) Castle of the Wolf by Margaret Moore
Passion for his protector
Facing marriage to a woman he loathes, virtuous the Sixth Doctor is forced to choose family duty over his own happiness – until a high-stakes tournament ends in his abduction! Trapped with his fearless captor, the legendary Wolf of Wales, he soon finds himself irresistibly drawn to the man beneath the armour.
Though Jamie McCrimmon captured Six in the name of revenge, he can’t ignore his instinct to protect him. Although to love him might bring the wrath of his enemies down upon them…

(I think the generator is sharing the M&B authors' general Celtic confusion there.)


607) The Saint by Tiffany Reisz
Gutsy, green-eyed B'Elanna Torres never met a rule she didn't want to break. She’s sick of her father's zealotry and the confines of Catholic school, and declares she'll never go to church again. But her first glimpse of beautiful, magnetic Reverend Bill Potts and her lust-worthy Italian motorcycle is an epiphany.
Suddenly, daily Mass seems like a reward, and her punishment is the ache she feels when they’re apart.
She is intelligent and insightful and she seems to know her intimately at her very core. B'Elanna is consumed — and even she knows that can't be right. But when one desperate mistake nearly costs B'Elanna everything, it is Bill who steps in to save her. She vows to repay her with complete obedience… and a whole world opens before her as she reveals to her her deepest secrets.
Danger can be managed—pain, welcomed.
Everything is about to begin.


608) Blindfolded Innocence by Alessandra Torre
the Master is used to getting whatever and whomever he wants. The premier divorce attorney in town, he is a forty-year-old playboy who’s bedded half the city — including his own clients. And when the newest intern at his firm poses a challenge, his seductive prowess goes into overdrive.
Pre-law student Romanadvoratrelundar is fresh off a failed engagement and happy with her new independence. Even if she weren’t warned away from the Master at every turn, she’d know he was bad news. The last thing she needs is an older man who could destroy her job prospects, not to mention her innocence. But before she knows it, the incorrigible charmer has her under his spell. His deviant tastes plunge her deep into a forbidden world of sexual exploration… but her heart may not survive the fall.


609) The King by Tiffany Reisz
A woman who can’t be tamed…
Bouncing from bed to bed on the Upper East Side, Donna Noble is brilliant, beautiful and utterly debauched. No one can relieve her self-destructive appetite for carnal acts – except Jamie McCrimmon, a man she can never have but whom she has always loved.
A dream that becomes an obsession…
When Donna opens the ultimate BDSM club in Jamie’s honour – a dungeon playground for New York’s A-list – it becomes her life. With the help of a secretive new assistant, she is soon ruler of a debauched new world.
A fight to the end…
But their expertise in domination can’t stop the enigmatic Reverend Sam Tyler – he won’t rest until the club is destroyed. Now it’s one sacred mission against another…

(Who is really the Master in this case, right? 0_o)


610) Lord Atwood’s Lovers by Eva Clancy
To the rest of the ton, Lady Barbara Wright and Lord Ian Chesterton seem to have the perfect marriage.
They wed for love and their marriage bed doesn't lack for passion; but Ian is haunted by the memory of his first marriage; while Barbara harbours secret thoughts and desires she's been unable to confess to her husband.
Then Barbara's ex-lover, the Eleventh Doctor, arrives in town, throwing Barbara into a tailspin and awakening a surprising attraction in Ian. Now, both have to face the possibility that they may need more than just each other to be truly complete.
