“If Babies Bother You, Just Knock And I’ll See What I Can Do. But I Can’t Make Any Promises.”
J.J. blinked at Jack, feeling like a batter with too many balls being pitched at once. “Babies? What babies?”
“My babies. I’ve got three of them.”
Jack Remington with babies. What a concept. Poor little things. “You have babies?” she echoed incredulously.
He nodded, his eyes smiling. “It’s pretty standard. Lots of people have little ones. It’s an accepted practice, even in these modern times.”
“Not everyone does it,” she said, realizing her tone was defensive and regretting it.
“No, of course not.” His eyes narrowed, as though something in her voice piqued his interest. “Nice meeting you, Miss Jensen.” Grinning, he waved and went on his way.
Jack Remington. Of all the people to run into. And he hadn’t even remembered her.

Babies by the Busload
Raye Morgan
favors settings in the West, which is where she has spent most of her life. She admits to a penchant for Western heroes, believing that whether he’s a rugged outdoorsman or a smooth city sophisticate, he tends to have a streak of wildness that the romantic heroine can’t resist taming. She’s been married to one of those Western men for twenty years and is busy raising four more in her Southern California home.

Remembering it certainly wasn’t doing anything for her self-esteem and she was going to need all her confidence if she was going to parlay this temporary job at a local television station into a step up that slippery ladder she’d been trying to climb for the past ten years.
Today had been a pretty pathetic attempt. Despite everything, she had to laugh when she thought about it. During the course of the morning, she’d spilled coffee down the front of her only good suit, eaten the last doughnut just before the station manager came looking for it, and called the mayor of the city by his rival’s name on camera.
