“Would you like a taste?” she asked.
Reese looked past the fruit to her eyes. “I would.”
All her best intentions of keeping herself emotionally distanced from him disappeared in a white-hot wave of desire. Placing her fingertips against his chest, she brought the half-eaten strawberry to his lips.
“Take it,” she whispered, and he closed his lips over the fruit.

Dear Reader,
We all know that Valentine’s Day is the most romantic holiday of the year. It’s the day you show that special someone in your life—husband, fiancé…even your mom!—just how much you care by giving them special gifts of love.
And our special Valentine’s gift to you is a book from a writer many of you have said is one of your favorites, Annette Broadrick. Megan’s Marriage isn’t just February’s MAN OF THE MONTH, it’s also the first book of Annette’s brand-new DAUGHTERS OF TEXAS series. This passionate love story is just right for Valentine’s Day.
February also marks the continuation of SONS AND LOVERS, a bold miniseries about three men who discover that love and family are the most important things in life. In Reese: The Untamed by Susan Connell, a dashing bachelor meets his match and begins to think that being married might be more pleasurable than he’d ever dreamed. The series continues in March with Ridge: The Avenger by Leanne Banks.
This month is completed with four more scintillating love stories: Assignment: Marriage by Jackie Merritt, Daddy’s Choice by Doreen Owens Malek, This Is My Child by Lucy Gordon and Husband Material by Rita Rainville. Don’t miss any of them!
So Happy Valentine’s Day and Happy Reading!

“No, I don’t have to do it. The idea is ridiculous, desperate and sleazy…even for you, Eugene.”
“I can see where you find the task questionable. But we have to look at what’s at stake here. You’re being called upon to do something for your country.”
