CELESTE BRADLEY

and her previous novels and series

ROGUE IN MY ARMS

“Bradley doesn’t disappoint with the second in her Runaway Brides trilogy, which is certain to have readers laughing and crying. Her characters leap off the page, especially little Melody, the precocious ‘heroine,’ and her three fathers. There’s passion, adventure, nonstop action, and secrets that make the pages fly by.”

—Romantic Times BOOKreviews

“When it comes to crafting fairy tale–like, wonderfully escapist historicals, Bradley is unrivaled, and the second addition to her Runaway Brides trilogy cleverly blends madcap adventure and sexy romance.”

—Booklist

DEVIL IN MY BED

“From its unconventional prologue to its superb con-clusion, every page of the first in Bradley’s Runaway Brides series is perfection and joy. Tinged with humor that never overshadows the poignancy and peopled with remarkable characters (especially the precocious Melody who will steal your heart), this one’s a keeper.”

—Romantic Times BOOKreviews

“Part romantic comedy, part romantic suspense, and wholly entertaining,
Devil in My Bed
is a delight!”

—Romance Reviews Today

“Laughter, tears, drama, suspense, and a heartily de-served happily-ever-after.”
