Book Description
It is becoming clear to Watson that unless Holmes is removed from Baker Street and the constant calls upon his time, which are inescapable as long as he he remains there, his health and strength are at the risk of failing. Watson takes Holmes to Kilbuie, Loch Echil, after reading Boswell's account of his journey there; he feels they should emulate the illustrious eighteenth- century man of letters. However, they arrive to find that all their Loch Echil acquaintances have experienced disaster or misfortune of late, and the owner of the castle atop Uffa Island just out to sea is missing his most precious family heirloom, the Macglevin buckle.

Book Description
She staggered a great man. He was reeling. She was overwhelmed. Fitzwilliam Darcy, standing irritably at the edge of the Meryton assembly, declines to dance with Elizabeth Bennet. In a mood of revulsion, he rejects her without concern of being overheard. Country pretensions are always in need of squashing, and what better way to make clear he would not partner anyone outside his party? However, when he looks over at her, she does not appear humbled at all. She is secretly laughing at him! Elizabeth is perversely delighted to encounter such an outrageous snob as Mr. Darcy. When he approaches her with a stiff, graceless apology, she coolly brushes him off, believing that, like most annoyances, he will go away when properly snubbed. But no! The man then puts out his hand and, not wishing to create a scene, compels her to stand up with him. They go through the steps of the dance mutually disdainful and intent upon wounding each other. But by the time the musicians end their tune, Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy have traded barbs with such accuracy, they are unaccountably amused and engaged. Will this most inconvenient flirtation drive them apart-or, like silver buckles, are they a matched pair?

Book Description
She has friends. Lives in a nice house in a swanky neighbourhood. Has been accepted to first-rate university a thousand miles away and has to leave in a few weeks. Why is she on the road with a bunch of strangers? Lindy Jones longs to connect with her birth father, but all she’s ever known about him is his name and that he rides the rodeo. Her mother refuses to talk about him except to say he has no interest in her. A chance sighting of a cowboy leaving their house on the last day of the Calgary Stampede makes her doubt that; she determines to find him that night, even though it means sneaking away. When she learns he’s already left, she falls in with a group of rodeo cowboys on their way to the next rodeo, telling herself it’s the only way she’ll ever find him. Will she find her father? What if he really doesn’t want anything to do with her, as her mother’s been telling her all these years? And what about the handsome young bull rider who’s winning all the silver buckles—will he win her heart?
