Two classic Westmoreland novels from New York Times bestselling author Brenda Jackson

WHAT A WESTMORELAND WANTS

He’s been biding his time, and now the perfect opportunity has arrived for Callum Austell to pursue the ultimate object of his affections. Offering Gemma a job to decorate his new home means she has to come to him. And on his territory, the Aussie knows he can easily woo her into his bed. But this Westmoreland woman is no pushover. If Callum is to get what he wants—as always—the millionaire just might have to utter those three little words first.

Dear Reader,

When I first introduced the Westmoreland family, little did I know they would become hugely popular with readers. Originally, the Westmoreland family series was intended to be just six books, Delaney and her five brothers—Dare, Thorn, Stone, Storm and Chase. Later, I wanted my readers to meet their cousins—Jared, Spencer, Durango, Ian, Quade and Reggie. Finally, there were Uncle Corey’s triplets—Clint, Cole and Casey.

What began as a six-book series blossomed into a thirty-book series when I included the Denver Westmorelands. I was very happy when Harlequin Kimani Arabesque responded to my readers’ requests that the earlier books be reprinted. And I’m even happier that the reissues are in a great two-books-in-one format.

All for Love contains What a Westmoreland Wants and A Wife for a Westmoreland. These are two Westmoreland classics and are books number eighteen and nineteen in the Westmoreland series. In What a Westmoreland Wants I leave no doubt in anyone’s mind that Callum wants Gemma Westmoreland, and in this very special story he plans to get what he wants. And in A Wife for a Westmoreland Derringer is just as determined to get what he wants…and he’s decided that’s Lucia Conyers. So just what does this Westmoreland man have to do to win her heart? I think you’re going to enjoy the results.

I hope you enjoy reading these special stories as much as I enjoyed writing them.

Happy reading!

Prologue Prologue Callum Austell sat in the chair with his legs stretched out in front of him as he stared at the man sitting behind the huge oak desk. He and Ramsey Westmoreland had become friends from the first, and now he had convinced Ramsey that he was the man who would give his sister Gemma the happiness she deserved. But Callum knew there was one minor flaw in his plans. One that would come back to haunt him if Gemma Westmoreland ever discovered that the trip to Australia he would offer her would be orchestrated for the sole purpose of getting her off familiar turf so that she would finally come to realize just how much he cared for her. “I hope you know what you’re doing,” Ramsey said, interrupting Callum’s thoughts. “Gemma will give you hell when she finds out the truth.” “I’ll tell her before then, but not before she falls in love with me,” Callum replied. Ramsey lifted a brow. “And if she doesn’t?” To any other woman Callum’s intense pursuit might seem like a romantic move, but Ramsey was convinced his sister, who didn’t have a romantic bone in her body, wouldn’t see things that way. Callum’s expression was determined. “She will fall in love with me.” And then the look in his eyes almost became one of desperation. “Damn, Ram, she has to. I knew the first moment I saw her that she was the one and only woman for me.” Ramsey took a deep breath. He wished he’d had the same thoughts the first time he set eyes on his wife, Chloe. Then he would not have encountered the problems he had. However, his first thoughts when he’d seen Chloe weren’t the least bit honorable. “You’re my friend, Callum, but if you hurt my sister in any way, then you’ll have one hell of an angry Westmoreland to deal with. Your intentions toward Gemma better be nothing but honorable.” Callum leaned forward in his chair. “I’m going to marry her.” “She has to agree to that first.” Callum stood. “She will. You just concentrate on becoming a father to the baby you and Chloe are expecting in a couple of months, and let me worry about Gemma.”
