Dear Friends (#ulink_daa9325a-3349-5b69-bb07-ead334348e45),

The Perfect Destinies series was originally issued as three Silhouette Special Edition books (Million-Dollar Destinies), with a longer follow-up work written for MIRA Books. I’m so pleased to have all of them available in these new editions from MIRA.

As many of you know, I’ve always loved writing about families. And in this case three sexy, very different brothers were raised by their madcap Aunt Destiny, after the tragic death of their parents. Think Auntie Mame for those of you old enough to remember that wonderful movie. Or meddling Mick O’Brien, if you’re a fan of my Chesapeake Shores series.

I hope you’ll enjoy revisiting the Carltons, if you’ve read these books before. And if you’re new to the series, I hope you’ll welcome the family into your heart as you have so many of my other families.

All best,

CAST OF CHARACTERS (#ulink_eb5a6ed3-21ac-5d06-a5c8-51dd446ccd94)

Ben Carlton—He sees the world with an artist’s eye for detail. The youngest and least ambitious of the successful Carlton brothers, he’s usually content to let his brothers be the family headliners. But Ben’s sensitive soul cries out for someone who shares his vision of the world.

Kathleen Dugan—She doesn’t need much coaxing to recognize that Ben is a talented artist and a tortured soul. A successful gallery owner, she sees beauty in his art and fame in his future. But getting Ben to see what she does will take more than a twist of fate. It will take the kind of determination that’s her specialty.

Destiny Carlton—She knows that her youngest nephew has been twice burned by tragedy. Convincing him to love again will take every clever trick at her disposal, along with a woman who won’t take no for an answer. There’s not a doubt in Destiny’s mind that she’s found just the woman in Kathleen.

A man who’s closed himself off from love,

a woman with heart and Destiny’s touch.

It’s bound to be picture-perfect.
