The publication of the Silhouette Desire titles in the United Kingdom began in January 1983 by Hodder & Stoughton, six month after the start of the North American Edition. At that time Silhouette still was a division of Simon & Schuster. The UK titles had the same covers and numbering as the US Edition but their publisher's ISBN: UK-Edition and US-Edition

Harlequin Enterprises bought Silhouette in 1984 and from January 1985 on the UK-Edition was published by Silhouette via Harlequin's UK-based branch Mills & Boon. The UK titles still had the same covers and numbering as the US Edition but a ISBN in the Harlequin range (0-373-), whereas the US-edition still had one in Simon & Schuster's: UK-Edition and US-Edition

From July 1985 to June 1986 the UK-titles were almost identical to the North American Edition except that there where published 6 months later. From July 1986 to April 1995 the UK-titles again had a different ISBN in the Harlequin range, but kept the USA covers and series numbering.
