MILD SHELF WEAR ON DUSTJACKET, LIBRARY STAMPS ON EDGE & ENDPAGE, NO MARKING IN TEXT. The Barnes & Noble Review: In Nora Roberts's beloved holiday classic, resissued in a special gift edition, two lonely people running from the hurts of the past find each other by chance -- and eventually decide to take a chance on love. Portrait painter Gabe Bradley has isolated himself in a mountain cabin, trying to recover from the pain of his brother's death. He meets Laura Malone, who is eight months pregnant, when her car nearly skids into him on a snowy, deserted Colorado road. Laura, a well-known model, is on the run, trying to protect her unborn child from her wealthy in-laws, the Eagletons. It was bad enough they tried to cover up the death of her abusive, alcoholic husband, but now they hope to seize custody of the baby. By the time the storm is over, Gabe and Laura have reached a level of understanding and agree to a marriage of protection and need. Their wedding day turns into the baby's birth day, and by the time the Eagletons make their move, both Gabe and Laura are ready to take a stand for the future. As always, Roberts's characters are tremendously appealing. The progression of their awkward marriage rings true, as does Laura's developing relationship with her new mother-in-law, and Laura and Gabe's experiences as new parents. Ginger Curwen ""From the Publisher: From New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts comes a classic tale of romance to warm your heart this holiday season, Gabriel's Angel. Pregnant, alone and on the run to protect her unborn child, Laura Malone found herself stranded on a snowy Colorado road, at the mercy of a stranger. Fortunately, Gabriel Bradley's only intention that fateful night was to provide her shelter. She was an angel with midnight blue eyes and a shock of blond hair, and Gabe might have thought she had come out of the snowy night to save him -- if he were the kind of man to believe in such things. But ever since he had lost his beloved brother, he had lost hope. Now the only solace Gabe took was in his solitude. Together they weathered the storm, sharing their intimate secrets and soon powerful passion. By the time the roads had cleared, a promise had been made. For Gabe understood Laura needed protection if she hoped to keep custody of her child through the coming court battle. \n\nFor her sake, he was prepared to offer marriage. But his motives weren't nearly so pure. Truthfully, this beautiful, vulnerable stranger had given him an invaluable gift. Life with Laura had given Gabe a reason for being -- courage to hope, and the power to dream that he could have the future and the family he had once dreamed of . . . #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts is "a storyteller of immeasurable diversity and talent," according to Publishers Weekly. She has published over 160 novels, her work has been optioned and made into films, and has been translated into over twenty-five different languages and published all over the world. \n\nIn addition to her amazing success in the mainstream, Nora has a large and loyal category romance audience, which took her to their hearts in 1981 with her very first book, Irish Thoroughbred a Silhouette Romance novel. The last decade has seen over a hundred of Nora's books become New York Times bestsellers -- many of them reaching #1. Nora truly is a publishing phenomenon. ISBN: 0373285442. (more information)

The Accidental Bride
Bantam Books. 08/01/1999. Reissue. Set against Oliver Cromwell's revolt against the English monarchy, THE ACCIDENTAL BRIDE is the second book in Jane Feather's passionate "Brides" trilogy. When shy, bookish Lady Phoebe Carlton is forced by tradition to marry her sister's widower, Lord Cato Granville, she finds herself suddenly blinded by love. As her brother-in-law, Cato had always seemed dull and intimidating. Now, however, just as she is about to make her marriage vows, Phoebe yearns for Cato's affection. But as the bugle sounds on the battle field, Phoebe learns that Brian, Cato's stepson and supporter of the monarchy, is out to assassinate Cato, a key officer in Cromwell's army. Determined, Phoebe declares a revolution of her own and sets out to not only seduce her love, but save him as well. Originally published at $6.99 You save 82% off the cover price!

The Professor's House (Vintage Classics)
Random House Inc. 11/01/1990. Reissue. When he and his wife move to a new house, Professor Godfrey St. Peter is uncomfortable with the materialistic turn his life is taking. Stubbornly, he clings to his dusty study in the old house in an attempt to hang on to his old life and values. In addition, he is finding difficulties coping with the marriages of his two daughters which have not only taken them away from him but forced him to give a dubious welcome two new sons-in-law. The novel is divided into three sections, the middle one dealing with the exploration of an ancient cliff city in New Mexico by a former student who died in World War I--and whose life and death are also crucial to the plot. In the final section, the professor, left alone while his family takes an expensive European tour, comes close to death from the malfunctioning gas stove in his study--and finds himself strangely willing to die. He is rescued, however, by the old family seamstress, Augusta, who has been his staunch friend throughout his trials. He resolves to go on with his life and make the best of things. Cather's exploration of loneliness, idealism vs. materialism, and the sadness and resiliency of old age is widely considered to be one of her best novels.
