We investigate anisotropic S=1/2 Heisenberg chains with spin-S boundary defects with an impurity coupling beyond simple superexchange. We employ finite temperature Quantum Monte-Carlo methods based on Stochastic Series Expansion. For particular choices of parameters and at zero temperature the models we investigate are exactly solvable by means of Bethe Ansatz techniques. Results will be presented for magnetic properties as functions of uniform and edge magnetic fields, exchange-coupling constants, anisotropy, temperature, and system size. Properties include the susceptiblity and magnetization. Of special interest are bulk and boundary properties which are expressed in orders of 1/L and the magnetization with respect to the corresponding magnetic fields. We will compare our findings from both methods in the zero temperature limit.
