I've given these my usual attention in the initial clean-up, but as usual,
if you find anything that needs rescanning, just drop me a note at

And now for the synopses:
The Last Heiress by Bertrice Small
Renowned as the "reigning queen of romance, New York Times bestselling
author Bertrice Small concludes the Friarsgate Inheritance saga with this
dazzling tale of passion, intrigue, and seduction set against the glorious
backdrop of King Henry's sixteenth-century court....
Elizabeth Meredith, the youngest daughter of Rosamund Bolton, is nothing
like her sensible sisters. Impatient with fancy manners and careful speech,
the young beauty has shunned the royal court in favor of a quiet life at
Friarsgate. That is, until she learns that in order to protect the future of
the land she loves, she must venture into the court of King Henry VIII to
find a suitable husband.
Elizabeth quickly scandalizes the royal court by forging a friendship with
the king's friend Anne Boleyn and by indulging in a delicious flirtation
with Flynn Stewart, a bastard brother of King James V of Scotland. But her
real future lies back at Friarsgate, where her admitted weakness for Scots
sends her into the strong arms of Baen MacColl. Yet Elizabeth's greatest
passion is for her lands; and Baen MacColl's loyalties may lie elsewhere.
Can Elizabeth and Baen overcome the barriers that threaten to separate them?
And can Elizabeth, by following the calling of her heart, still protect
Friarsgate?
Dragonlance Legends Volume 1: Time of the Twins by Margaret Weis and Tracy
Hickman
The War of the Lance has ended. The darkness has passed. Or has it? One man,
the powerful archmage Raistiin, intends that the darkness return. Two people
alone can stop him. One is Crysania, a beautiful cleric of good, who is
drawn to Raistlin as a moth is drawn to flame. The other is his twin,
Caramon, who must come to an understanding of himself before he can redeem
his brother.
Together with the irrepressible kender, Tasslehoff, these three take a
perilous journey back in time to the days just before the Cataclysm. In the
doomed city of Istar, poised on the brink of disaster, dark magic and darker
ambition battle love and self-sacrifice in a quest to save not only the
world but more importantly-a soul.
Happy validating!
Donna
