Marriage of convenience or a love for life?
It's 1732 in Gothenburg, Sweden, and strong-willed Jess van Sandt knows only too well that it s a man's world. She believes she's being swindled out of her inheritance by her stepfather and she's determined to stop it.
When help appears in the unlikely form of handsome Scotsman Killian Kinross, himself disinherited by his grandfather, Jess finds herself both intrigued and infuriated by him. In an attempt to recover her fortune, she proposes a marriage of convenience.
Then Killian is offered the chance of a lifetime with the Swedish East India Company's Expedition and he's determined that nothing will stand in his way, not even his new bride. He sets sail on a daring voyage to the Far East, believing he's put his feelings and past behind him. But the journey doesn't quite work out as he expects...
THE SILVER LOCKET

If life is cheap, how much is love worth?What do you think? :)
It's 1914 and young Rose Courtenay has a decision to make. Please her wealthy parents by marrying the man of their choice - or play her part in the war effort? The chance to escape proves irresistible and Rose becomes a nurse.
Working in France, she meets Lieutenant Alex Denham, a dark figure from her past. He's the last man in the world she'd get involved with - especially now he's married. But in wartime nothing is as it seems.
Alex's marriage is a sham and Rose is the only woman he's ever wanted. As he recovers from his wounds, he sets out to win her trust. His gift of a silver locket is a far cry from the luxuries she's left behind. What value will she put on his love?

Trade Winds has a really pretty cover and it sounds really interesting!
WOW! These are gorgeous. I'm going to put The Silver Locket on my Wish List. I love the story and the cover.
So glad you love the cover of The Silver Locket, Julie - I think it's beautiful. My heroine looks exactly like the girl, and now I keep wondering who she might have been. Maybe, one day, I shall find out?
Choc Lit have indeed been coming up with wonderful covers. Margaret's and Christina's, shown here, are so enticing and I can't wait to read them. I was very chuffed with my cover too.
