Jewel In His Crown — Lynne Graham

Sheikh Prince Raja al-Somari knows that sacrificing his freedom for the good of his country isn’t a choice, it’s a duty. But he’s going to have to use more pleasurable tactics to convince his new bride...

A day ago Ruby Sommerton was an ordinary girl, going to work and gossiping with her flatmate, and now she’s found out she’s a princess! Raja’s new bride has a lot to learn about being a royal, including how exhilarating nights with her new husband can be — and that an heir is top of his agenda!

Craving Beauty — Nalini Singh

Hope blossomed in Hira’s heart. Perhaps she’d married a man with whom it might just be worth building a life. Her mother had worried that he was scarred, but the lines on his face did nothing to lessen his raw masculine appeal. If anything, they gave him an even more dangerous male air, enticing the feminine core of her to thoughts that shocked her. What did a man’s face matter anyway? She had no use for handsome men. But for a man with a heart? For such a man…she might risk everything.

The Society Bride — Fiona Hood-Stewart

Ramon Villalba is handsome, gifted and wealthy; women line up to warm his bed. So why would he want a bride of convenience? Exquisitely beautiful heiress Nena Carvajal needs protecting from fortune hunters, and it would be no hardship for Ramon to enjoy the pleasures of an arranged marriage with her. He’s confident he can tame his headstrong virgin wife. But Nena had expected to marry for love…
