Fortune's Twins
Kara Lennox

Welcome to MILLIONAIRE, MONTANA, where twelve lucky souls have won a multimillion-dollar jackpot.And where one millionaire in particular is… PREGNANT WITH TWINSSeems lottery winner Gwen Tanner's night of passion hit a second jackpot: twins! But the mom-to-be's baby boom will boost Jester's population by three, if new-guy-in-town Eli Garrett is in fact her offspring's sire. Heck, the mystery man is positively possessive of the prim, pregnant boardinghouse owner, buying the fixer-upper next door–and, rumor has it, baby booty galore!–while breaking down Gwen's defenses beneath her very own roof. Sparks are said to be ricocheting between the alleged former lovers, fueling stories of a shotgun wedding. Will the very pregnant bride and groom make the altar before the babies' debut?

It’s a baby shower! You’re invited…

For Gwendolyn Tanner, soon-to-be mother of twin baby girls—the subjects of “Who’s the daddy?” speculation.

Gwendolyn is registered at The Mercantile.

In this book, a night of passion leaves a “Main Street Millionaire” expecting twins—and has the whole town wondering “Who’s the daddy?” After catching a bridal bouquet and opening an heirloom hope chest, a shy virgin dreams about asking her secret crush to father the baby she yearns for, in Have Bouquet, Need Boyfriend, part of Rita Herron’s HARTWELL HOPE CHESTS series. And don’t miss Inherited: One Baby! by Laura Marie Altom, in which a handsome bachelor must convince his ex-wife to remarry him in order to keep custody of the adorable orphaned baby left in his care.
