Tempted
Alexander Drumming, the Marquis of Warrick, is no saint. Descended from a long line of rakes, he has vowed to stop dallying with the fairer sex. But now he needs a woman-an extraordinary woman to tame his wildcat of a daughter. Intelligent, spirited Mary Callaghan is the perfect nursemaid for the child, but one look at her bedroom eyes and luscious lips and Alexander is tempted to seduce one last woman. For Mary, masquerading as a nanny and enticing the master of the house is all in a day's work-until stolen kisses and passionate caresses distract her from her perilous game. Soon two people who know the risk of mixing danger and desire find themselves on the brink of a shocking scandal, and Alexander is about to discover what happens when he lets an enemy into his house...and his heart.

The Little Locksmith by Katharine Butler Hathaway, ISBN 1558612394
First published in 1943, The Little Locksmith was hailed as a major literary event: a rare and beautifully crafted memoir, holding an unforgettable story. The New York Times wrote, "It is the kind of book that cannot come into being without great living and great suffering and a rare spirit behind it".
In 1895, suffering from a disease of the spine, five-year-old Katharine Butler is strapped to a stretcher in an attempt to ward off "deformity". Forced to remain immobile for ten years, she creates for herself a bedroom world -- where her brothers and sister cluster about her, reading, drawing, and creating art. At the age of fifteen she is pronounced "cured" and allowed to stand up -- only to discover that her back is hunched.
The Little Locksmith traces this young disabled woman's struggle to negotiate her physical limitations and her persistent sense of shame with her equally undeniable aspirations and desires. Her spirit and courage prevail, and she succeeds far beyond the boundaries...
