The Cowboy’s Promise - Teresa Southwick

Flirty rancher Morgan Dalton is all about keeping things casual...until Erica Abernathy moves back to Bronco. She’s sweet, sexy — and about to have a baby all on her own. Morgan steps up to be a shoulder she can lean on, telling them both it won’t lead to more. But when he steps in to be Erica’s labour coach, the charismatic cowboy finds it hard to be a man of his word...

Her Not-So-Little Secret - Brenda Harlen

A temporary job in Haven, Nevada’s DA office is what surrogate mum Sierra Hart thinks she needs. She’ll pass her pregnancy in peace, then return home with her brother and his wife’s baby and be the best aunt. But Sierra doesn’t plan on Deacon Parrish. Opposing counsel on her first big trial. Smooth talker. Shameless flirt. Sierra knows a bad boy when she sees one. Only problem is, she doesn’t know how to resist him.

Rachel’s Bundle Of Joy - Christine Rimmer

With her biological clock ticking, Rachel Stockham decides to take motherhood into her own hands and visits a fertility clinic. But at six months pregnant, an impromptu shopping trip and a purse snatching send her on a date with sweet, sexy Bryce Armstrong. Suddenly, she’s wondering if there may just be a man in her — and her daughter’s — future. But Bryce has secrets, secrets that he fears might change Rachel’s feelings about him. When those secrets come out, will Rachel be able to see who Bryce truly is? Or will their chance encounter turn into a lesson in missed connections?

About the Author

Teresa Southwick discovered her love for the written word because she was lazy. In a high school history class she was given a list of possible projects and she chose to do an imaginary diary of Marie Antoinette since it seemed to require the least amount of work.But she soon realized that to come up with any plausible personal entries for poor Marie she needed to know a little something about the woman. Research was required. After all, Teresa sincerely wanted to pass the class. Nowadays, she finds that knowing as much as she can about her characters is more fun than it is work.She is the author of 20 books, four of them historicals for which she had to do research. She s happy to say laziness played no part in the creative process and no brain cells were harmed in the writing of those books.She has no pets as her husband is allergic to anything with fur. Preserving her marriage seemed more expedient to her than having a critter curl up by her desk as she writes.She was conceived in New Jersey, born in Southern California, and got to Texas as quickly as she could, where she s hard at work on a series for Silhouette Romance called Destiny, Texas. Never at a loss for inspiration or access to the male point of view, she s surrounded by men including her heroic, albeit allergy-prone, husband and two handsome sons. Carol Marinelli recently filled in a form asking for her job title. Thrilled to be able to put down her answer, she put writer. Then it asked what Carol did for relaxation and she put down the truth - writing. The third question asked for her hobbies. Well, not wanting to look obsessed she crossed the fingers on her hand and answered swimming but, given that the chlorine in the pool does terrible things to her highlights - I'm sure you can guess the real answer. A New York Times bestselling author, Christine Rimmer has written over ninety contemporary romances for Harlequin Books. Christine has won the Romantic Times BOOKreviews Reviewers Choice Award and has been nominated six times for the RITA Award. She lives in Oregon with her family.
