When Kathleen Robertson decides to spend a quiet family holiday with her brother John on a Scottish island, she doesn’t expect to have to fight for her life...

After spending a peaceful few days relaxing, Kathleen begins to notice some strange goings-on. Before she has time to investigate, she finds herself kidnapped and held in a cave under the island’s old abbey. Her hopes of escape are dashed as John appears – not to save her, but accompanied by the terrorists who abducted her.

Will Kathleen escape unharmed?

The Reluctant Bridegroom
Veronica Wyllie is a widow living in a small Surrey village. After the death of her husband, she has no choice but to carry on and make a new life for herself.

At a party, she meets charming surgeon Stephen Henderson and falls head-over-heels. After dating, they decide to get engaged, but Stephen’s womanizing ways show no signs of slowing down...

With doubts about her relationship and no plans for marriage on the horizon, she meets Dr Michael Owen at a dinner party. Thoughtful, kind and very different to her fiancé, she cannot help but become attracted to him – and the feeling is mutual. Should Veronica risk everything by calling off her engagement?

The Abbey and The Reluctant Bridegroom are two very different, but equally entertaining stories that will appeal to those looking for variety.
