Doctor's Orders. Sharon De Vita
>
Cassie tried to dispel some of her nervousness, smothering the wave of awareness that was making every female nerve ending stand at attention.
Beau was just a man, for goodness’ sake. She’d dealt with many men in her life. There was certainly no reason to get all flustered every time this one looked at her.
Still, there was something very different about Beau that made her very aware of her own feelings and emotions. It was just a tad unnerving, since she truly thought herself immune from any kind of man.
Her experience with Sofie’s father had left a bitter taste in her mouth and scared her off all men. As far as she was concerned, she couldn’t trust her own judgment when it came to men, so she simply kept her distance. Besides, she was far too busy trying to support herself and her daughter to worry about impressing some man or squeezing time out of her hectic life to accommodate him.
But now, with Beau, Cassie simply couldn’t fall back on her usual routine of indifference. Like it or not, she needed his help and so did her daughter. So she was going to curb her own feelings and put Sofie’s needs ahead of her own. She wasn’t about to jeopardize anything because of one gorgeous man. No matter how charming he was.
Dear Reader,
April is an exciting month for the romance industry because that is when our authors learn whether or not their titles have been nominated for the prestigious RITA® Award sponsored by the Romance Writers of America. As with the Oscars, our authors will find out whether they’ve actually won in a glamorous evening event that caps off the RWA national conference in July. Of course, all the Silhouette Romance titles this month are already winners to me!
Karen Rose Smith heads up this month’s lineup with her tender romance To Protect and Cherish (#1810) in which a cowboy-at-heart bachelor becomes a father overnight. Prince Incognito (#1811) by Linda Goodnight features another equally unforgettable hero—this one a prince masquerading as an ordinary guy. Nearly everyone accepts his disguise except, of course, our perceptive heroine who is now torn between the dictates of her head…and her heart. Longtime Silhouette Romance author Sharon De Vita returns with Doctor’s Orders (#1812), in which a single mother who has been badly burned by love discovers a handsome doctor just might have the perfect prescription for her health and longtime happiness. Finally, in Roxann Delaney’s His Queen of Hearts (#1813), a runaway bride goes from the heat and into the fire when she finds herself holed up in a remote location with her handsome rescuer.
Happy reading!
Sincerely,
Ann Leslie Tuttle
Associate Senior Editor

To all who’ve been touched by Hurricane Katrina, good thoughts and prayers are with you, as well as with our heroic men and women in uniform who once again have stepped up to the plate and helped those who can’t help themselves. I’m forever grateful to live in a country where help is always—always just a helping hand away.
