The Strong Heart

1960s, Contemporary, English

When Rose Bennett meets Cliff Patterson at a party it's love at first sight for both of them. Within weeks they are engaged and Rose is blissfully happy. Cliff has to return to South Africa, but he promises to send for her as soon as possible. As she waits in London, the future seems crystal-bright to Rose. Little does she know that she still had to learn the difference between true love and infatuation. When she meets Ashley Rivers, a wealthy industrialist, she meets a kind of man different than wastrel Cliff -- who prefers playing a guitar to a hard day's work. Ashley succeeds in winning her, and she falls madly in love with him. But when she finally open her eyes, she finds herself in the middle of a struggle that can only be met with a strong heart and unbreakable honour.

1965

The Noble One

1950s, Contemporary, English

Dana was beautiful as the unspoiled countryside she loved so much. Having grown up in the rugged countryside of the Lake District, she found herself filled with a deep affection for the animals that roamed among the hills, especially the majestic stag she calls The Noble One. When she learns that somebody is trying to kill the stag for the sake of its splendid antlers, she determines to fight for its survival. But he was a huntsman - and she was his next trophy. Because the man behind the illegal hunting is also a man who claimed to be in love with her... But the arrival of Brett Chalmers, the new Assistant Game Warden, certainly has quite an effect. And not just on the fight for The Noble One? With two men vied for control of its wildlife, and they too fought for her. Would Dana become the loved and nurtured wife of the game warden or the prized trophy of a wealthy man's hunt for love? The struggle is not an easy one?

1957

Bitter-Sweet

1950s, Contemporary, English

Exquisite young Raine was sent to stay with her grandmother at villa in the South of France to recover from a reckless infatuation for Clifford Culver, a handsome philander. It all seemed so perfect -- the excitement of Cannes, the glittering blue Mediterranean, and the amorous attentions of the serious French artist, Armand. But she was still madly in love with the lighthearted Londoner, Cliff, and he knew it -- playing on her emotions as a musician plucks the strings of a delicate instrument. Though the sight of Cliff made her heart sing to the stars, his double game of deceit and passion cast her into a whirlwind of doubt and despair. His duplicity is discovered by the young Frenchman, who has already fallen passionately in love with Raine, and who also suspects that Ciff's main interest is the fortune that she will one day inherit. But the situation is to become even more tragic and involved before she finds the love and happiness she desires. Could the flirtatious Cliff ever change his ways? Would her fondness for the sensitive Armand turn to ardent desire and love?

1955

To Love Again

1940s, Contemporary, English

When the man she was about to marry died just before the wedding, Helen felt that her life had fallen apart, and that her world was shrouded with the ghost of her dead lover. It is six months since the death of her fiancé Christopher, but Helen still feels the world contains very little that is worth living for. She thinks of herself as a one-man girl - until she meets Peter Farrington. He was just like her dead fiance. That was Helen's first heart- stopping impression of Peter, who reminded her so much of her dead Christopher. Yet she soon came to recognize his differences and he crept right into her heart. Although Helen thought she could never fall in love again, she realized that she was in love with him. But Helen stills has little chance of happiness. For although Peter seems to feel the same way about her, he was engaged to the beautiful but selfish Rita Wade, her glamorous boss. Helen hated the thought of what this marriage would do to him. Even if she didn't love him, Helen would have been distressed at the thought of him marrying this selfish and hard-hearted woman. She knew a certain truth about Rita that would open Peter's eyes--but could she break a confidence even to save him?

And that was when she learned that the cry of the seagull was no more sad and tortured than the cry of her own heart. Because while Martin and Tansy's love softly flowered, several people were plotting to ruin their newfound happiness.
