The Shamrock Trilogy
Heirs to a great dynasty, the Delaney brothers were united by blood, united by devotion to their rugged land ... and known far and wide as THE SHAMROCK TRINITY. Powerful men... rakes and charmers... they needed only love to make their lives complete.

Rafe, the Maverick - Kay Hooper
Rafe Delaney was a heartbreaker whose ebony eyes held laughing devils and whose lilting voice could charm any lady -- or any horse -- until a stallion named Diablo left him in the dust. It took Maggie O'Riley to work her magic on the impossible horse...and on his bold owner. No woman had jolted Rafe Delaney's heart until this tiny dynamo had come to Shamrock Ranch; now her grace and strength made him yearn to share the raw beauty of his land, to teach her the exquisite pleasure of yielding to the heat inside her. Maggie was stirred by Rafe's passion, but would his reputation and her ambition keep their kindred spirits apart?

York, the Renegade - Iris Johansen
Knocking on a stranger's door in the middle of the night - and in the middle of a storm - isn't Sierra Smith's idea of a good time. But she doesn't need a warm welcome in York Delaney's town, just the chance for her traveling troupe to perform . . . then they'll move on. So where does the seriously gorgeous alpha rancher get the idea that Sierra needs protection? All her life, Sierra's craved a place to belong. No matter what feelings York reawakens in her, that place couldn't be Hell's Bluff, could it? After roaming the world for seven years, York has come home to the land he's bound to by ties deeper than blood. He's supposed to be soothing his restless spirit, not chasing after a big-eyed waif. But Sierra ignites a hunger he left behind long ago. Somehow, he must find a way to keep her in his life. Because if she leaves - taking his zealously guarded heart with her - there'll be hell to pay.

Burke, the Kingpin - Fayrene Preston
Cara Winston appeared as a fantasy, racing on horseback to catch the day's last light -- her silver hair glistening, her dress the color of the Arizona sunset...and Burke Delaney wanted her. She was on his horse, on his land: she would have to belong to him too. But Cara was quicksilver, impossible to hold, a wild creature whose scent was midnight flowers and sweet grass. Burke had always taken what he wanted, by willing it or fighting for it; Cara cherished her freedom and refused to believe his love would last. Could he make her see he'd captured her to have and hold forever?


The Delaneys of Killaroo
The descendents of a renegade Delaney who emigrated to Australia, these three sisters were as wild and untamed as the land they called home. But that home was now threatened with foreclosure so they hatched a daring plan to get the money...

Adelaide, the Enchantress - Kay Hooper
Addie Delaney was racing for her life, for enough money to make a cherished dream come true, when the only man who'd ever stirred her blood challenged her to resist him. The beguiling jockey, whose voice could tame animals and whose touch could bewitch men, astonished Sane Marston with her beauty and fragility-and her strength. The American horse breeder who was known as the sleekest, sexiest Thoroughbred in racing circles felt he'd go out of his mind if he couldn't run his fingers through her flaming hair, and caress the velvet softness of her skin. Addie reveled in Shane's savage need, and echoed his demands with wild pleasure, but she ached at denying him what he desired most -- her promise to give up the danger of the track. Could he believe that giving his love kept her safe in his heart forever?

Matilda, the Adventuress - Iris Johansen
Matilda Delaney lives for the thrill of the chase. She has come to Deadman's Ridge to find the legendary Black Flame opal. But a different excitement ignites when Matilda meets award-winning filmmaker Roman Gallagher. The passion he awakens is more intense than anything on the big screen . . . and a lot more dangerous than the quest for a long-lost treasure. Roman has come to the violence-plagued mining town to make his latest blockbuster, not to lust after a reckless, cinnamon-haired beauty who wears trouble like a second skin. Past heartache has taught him not to trust the powerful feelings that Matilda arouses. But he's getting closer to the point of no return. As man's greed and one irresistible woman lead him down a treacherous road, Roman has to choose: Walk away while he still can . . . or risk it all for the chance to finally slay his demons - and embrace a love beyond price.

Sydney, the Temptress - Fayrene Preston
Sydney Delaney knew somehow that she was being watched, felt Nicholas Charron's eyes like warm breath on her ski. In a desperate gamble she'd come to the Great Barrier Reef casino to make a fortune, but had never dreamed she'd meet its mysterious owner. His words held the heat and passion of a midnight wind, drawing her like a black velvet lariat, inexorably to him, and Sydney felt her precious control melting beneath his searing touch. Her beauty and innocence heated Nick's blood and made him yearn to free her desire, but she senses the danger of tempting this man of dark secrets into the light. When he was in her arms, night was turned to day and all pain forgotten, but could she trust and love this man who could command the wild black swans to fly to him?


This Fierce Splendor - Iris Johansen
Scottish beauty Elspeth MacGregor travels to Hell's Bluff to hire Dominic Delaney to lead her to the magical lost city of Kantalan, but at first he refuses -- the last thing he needs is to join a virginal scholar on a dangerous quest.

But Elspeth's fiery will coupled with her silky hair and milk-white skin prove irresistible, and Dominic acts -- first with angry lust, then with a searing yet tender passion that brands her eternal soul and bonds them both to a heated and turbulent future.

Through wonders and tragedy, across the untamed splendors of Arizona and Mexico, Elspeth and Dominic draw closer to their dual destiny: to experience the dark mysteries and magnificent riches of Kantalan... and to fulfill the promise of lasting love and the birth of a bold family dynasty.


Delaneys, the Untamed Years

Golden Flames - Kay Hooper
Powerful, dangerous, broodingly handsome Falcon Delaney was a loner, a man of action who'd spent years pursuing a stolen cache of Union gold. When he awakened in a locked cellar and gazed into the enchanting eyes of Victoria Fontaine, he was bewitched, on fire, aching to possess her. Giving her no chance to protest or resist, he kissed her thoroughly--and she was spellbound by waves of potent heat. Beneath Falcon's city manners was a wildness nothing could tame, and Victoria refused to be ashamed of her reckless, wanton desire for this complex man who left her breathless with passion. Torn between obsession and duty, Falcon longed to cherish her, but he knew he could make promises, offer her no future. She was willing to disregard every rule to have him--until a heartbreaking telegraph sent her riding West in search of a killer, with Falcon savaged by her betrayal... and hot on her trail. He'd follow her forever if it meant he'd learn her secret, but would uncovering the truth drive them apart for good?

Wild Silver - Iris Johansen
Mysterious, enigmatic Prince Nicholas Savron had the face of a fallen angel, but Silver Delaney knew his devil's beauty was a snare, and she dared not be trapped by it. He understood she'd never yield to him without a struggle, but her hair like dark flame stirred him, her satin skin tempted him irresistibly, and he felt the passion in her reach out and stroke him. Held captive on the riverboat he'd won in a poker game, she was mesmerized by the bold, sensuous sun god who made her tremble, but she refused his demand that she reveal a family secret. She was half Apache, half Delaney, an outcast who treasured loyalty and vowed escape -- even if Nicholas could drive her to the brink of madness with his bold embraces. He dazzled her, wooed his proud warrior woman until she became his quest, his outspoken dream. But once her courage survived a terrifying test, could he make his lovely, wild pagan understand that she was his destiny, the legendary Firebird who would carry him to a heaven that was home in her arms?

Copper Fire - Fayrene Preston

He was looking for trouble --- but instead he found Brianne Delaney, a tenderhearted spitfire whose hair blazed like the sun at high noon. As darkness was attracted to light, he drew her to him, took her breath away, overwhelmed her as no man ever had. Brianne knew there was danger in how he made her feel, but his need thrilled her. All the Delaneys loved a challenge, but she'd never learned how to surrender. Could she be subdued by the desire in Sloan's golden eyes? When her twin brother Patrick disappeared, Brianne vowed to track down his abductors. Then Sloan offered to rescue him, if she'd give herself to him. It was an outrageous demand, unthinkable --- and yet how could she deny him what her own rebellious heart yearned for? He drew her life into him, coming alive in the warmth of her loving spirit. But would Sloan's desperate feud shatter their dreams of enduring love?

If she was his firebird, his destiny why didn't he touch her, caress her, command her? She felt like a wild thing seeking refuge from a storm, but was Nicholas the storm, or the refuge? Gowned n sate, arrayed n an empress's rubies, Silver dazzled the Tsar's court, but found powerful enemies in Nicholas's mother and the villainous Monteith--and suspected a terrible betrayal. Nicholas tried to heal Silver's pan, but cherishing her meant opening old wounds of his own. Could he persuade his wild angel that once a firebird summoned her lover, he would forever follow her to the ends of the earth?
