“Sign The Agreement And We Can Be Married Before The Week’s Out.”
Aimee pushed him away. “No. I’m not signing any prenuptial agreement.” She shoved the document toward him and tugged off the diamond he’d placed on her left hand earlier that evening.
“What are you doing?
” “Giving you back your engagement ring. I’m not going to marry you.”
“What do you mean, you’re not going to marry me? You’ve already said yes!”
She tipped her chin defiantly. “Well, I’ve changed my mind. But,” she said as calmly as she could, “I think I’ll take you up on your original offer.”
“My original offer?”
“Yes. I’ll have an affair with you instead.”
Dear Reader,
Go no further! I want you to read all about what’s in store for you this month at Silhouette Desire. First, there’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for, the triumphant return of Joan Hohl’s BIG BAD WOLFE series! MAN OF THE MONTH Cameron Wolfe “stars” in the absolutely wonderful Wolfe Wedding. This book, Joan’s twenty-fifth Silhouette title, is a keeper. So if you plan on giving it to someone to read I suggest you get one for yourself and one for a friend—it’s that good!
In addition, it’s always exciting for me to present a unique new miniseries, and SONS AND LOVERS is just such a series. Lucas, Ridge and Reese are all brothers with a secret past…and a romantic future. The series begins with Lucas: The Loner by Cindy Gerard, and continues in February with Reese: The Untamed by Susan Connell and in March with Ridge: The Avenger by Leanne Banks. Don’t miss them!
If you like humor, don’t miss Peachy’s Proposal, the next book in Carole Buck’s charming, fun-filled WEDDING BELLES series, or My House or Yours? the latest from Lass Small.
If ranches are a place you’d like to visit, you must check out Barbara McMahon’s Cowboy’s Bride. And this month is completed with a dramatic, sensuous love story from Metsy Hingle. The story is called Surrender, and I think you’ll surrender to the talents of this wonderful new writer.
Sincerely,
Lucia Macro

She credits the charm, antiquity and decadence of her birthplace, along with the passionate nature of her own French heritage, with instilling in her the desire to write. Married and the mother of four children, she believes in romance and happy endings. Becoming a Silhouette author is a long-cherished dream come true for Metsy and one happy ending that she continues to celebrate with each new story she writes.
To Lucia Macro
The Best Of The Best, Editor And Friend Thanks For Taking That First Chance.
“You expect me to sign this?” Aimee gripped the prenuptial agreement in her hand, praying the indignation in her voice masked the pain in her heart.
“I do, if we’re going to be married.” Peter moved toward her, and she took a step back. His lips thinned in a disapproving scowl. “At least look at the damn thing, Aimee. You’ll see that I’m being more than generous.”
The vise that seemed to be squeezing her heart tightened. Aimee swallowed hard, determined not to cry. “I’m sure you are.” In the three months since they’d become lovers, he had been extremely generous to her, with everything—except with his love.
And it was his love that she wanted most of all.
His expression softened somewhat, and this time when he moved to put his arm around her, Aimee didn’t resist. “Be reasonable, sweetheart. Just sign the thing, and then we can—”
“I’m not signing it, Peter.”
His body grew rigid beside her. “Do you want to have an attorney look it over first? Is that it?”
