“What could we possibly do that would make your grandmother believe we’re getting married?”

Unexpectedly, Gabe’s face lit up. “Set a wedding date,” he said.

Kassandra backed away from him. “Oh, no,” she said, shaking her head. “This was only supposed to be a fake engagement. That’s going too far in this charade.”

“Then we’re going to have to act more like an engaged couple. We’ll have to hold hands more and hug every once in a while.”

Kassandra nodded. “Okay.”

“And kiss more often than we’ve been doing.”

Swallowing, she nodded again. “Okay. No problem.” She licked her lips. The thought of kissing him more often made her shiver. She was still tingling from the memory of the last kiss they’d shared. Suddenly she was all too aware-the greatest danger in this charade wasn’t disappointing Gabe’s grandmother, but falling in love with him…for real!

Dear Reader,

What better way for Silhouette Romance to celebrate the holiday season than to celebrate the meaning of family….

You’ll love the way a confirmed bachelor becomes a FABULOUS FATHER just in time for the holidays in Susan Meier’s Merry Christmas, Daddy. And in Mistletoe Bride, Linda Varner’s HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS miniseries merrily continues. The ugly duckling who becomes a beautiful swan will touch your heart in Hometown Wedding by Elizabeth Lane. Doreen Roberts’s A Mom for Christmas tells the tale of a little girl’s holiday wish, and in Patti Standard’s Family of the Year, one man, one woman and a bunch of adorable kids form an unexpected family. And finally, Christmas in July by Leanna Wilson is what a sexy cowboy offers the struggling single mom he wants for his own.

Silhouette Romance novels make the perfect stocking stuffers—or special treats just for yourself. So enjoy all six irresistible books, and most of all, have a very happy holiday season and a very happy New Year!
