Subject: OVER MY HEAD!From: cooper…bryant@bryantdevelopment…comTo: ty…bryant@bryantdevelopment…comYou know me too well to call me a hero, but I rescued two strangers from this deadly blizzard after spotting their vehicle !in near white-out conditions. Now I'm sharing a secluded cabin with gorgeous Zoe Montgomery and her adorable infant. When I first started out, saving my precious ranch was all that mattered to me, but now…well, it's about all I can do to keep up with my new domestic duties and keep my eyes (and hands) off Zoe. But Cooper Bryant, devoted husband and dad? fhat would take a Christmas miracle….

“You’re not seducing me!”

“Why? Because I ignored you this afternoon? Honey, what’s going on between you and me has nothing to do with getting along, or making a commitment or even exchanging phone numbers. And right now your body’s telling me you feel the same things I do.”

“You are so crude!”

“I’m certainly not hearts and flowers.” There. It was out. The thing Cooper had wanted to deny all day. The thing he wanted Zoe to understand. The thing he needed for both of them to get beyond.

“I’m a hearts-and-flowers kind of girl.”

“Hey, I didn’t say I wouldn’t be romantic.”

“I don’t want romance. I want love.”

Dear Reader,

As the days get shorter and the approaching holidays bring a buzz to the crisp air, nothing quite equals the joy of reuniting with family and catching up on the year’s events. This month’s selections all deal with family matters, be it making one’s own family, dealing with family members or doing one’s family duty.

Desperate to save his family ranch, the hero in Elizabeth Harbison’s Taming of the Two (#1790) enters into a bargain that could turn a pretend relationship into the real deal. This is the second title in the SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE trilogy. A die-hard bachelor gets a taste of what being a family man is like when he rescues a beautiful stranger and her adorable infant from a deadly blizzard, in Susan Meier’s Snowbound Baby (#1791)—part of the author’s BRYANT BABY BONANZA continuity. Carol Grace continues her FAIRY TALE BRIDES miniseries with His Sleeping Beauty (#1792) in which a woman sheltered by her overprotective parents gains the confidence to strike out on her own after her handsome—but cynical—neighbor catches her sleepwalking in his garden! Finally, in The Marine and Me (#1793), the next installment in Cathie Linz’s MEN OF HONOR series, a soldier determined to outwit his matchmaking grandmother and avoid the marriage landmine gets bushwhacked by his supposedly dowdy neighbor.

Be sure to come back next month when Karen Rose Smith and Shirley Jump put their own spins on Shakespeare and the Dating Game, respectively!

Happy reading.
