You’re starting today?” Chloe asked.
Wyatt answered nonchalantly. “Why not? You have horses to care for. You can’t do that and watch two babies at the same time.”
“I haven’t forgotten you don’t know anything about babies. Have you?”
He gave her a lazy smile, and Chloe’s heart thumped with foolish anticipation.
“I haven’t been around babies before,” Wyatt agreed. “But I don’t know anything about caring for horses, either. And from where I’m standing the babies seem to be the far safer of the two jobs.”
Chloe couldn’t help but laugh. “You may want to reevaluate that opinion after a couple of days.”
Wyatt smiled. “How hard could the job be? Two babies and a little cooking. It’ll be a vacation compared to the hours I usually put in.”
Chloe managed to keep a straight face. “Good. I’m sure a vacation like this is just what you need.”
Dear Reader,
The month of June makes me think of June brides, Father’s Day and the first bloom of summer love. And Silhouette Romance is celebrating the start of summer with six wonderful books about love and romance.
Our BUNDLE OF JOY this month is delivered by Stella Bagwell’s The Tycoon’s Tots—her thirtieth Silhouette book. As her TWINS ON THE DOORSTEP miniseries continues, we finally discover who gets to keep those adorable babies.. .and find romance in the bargain.
Elizabeth August is back with her much-loved SMYTHESHIRE, MASSACHUSETTS series. In The Determined Virgin you’ll meet a woman whose marriage of convenience is proving to be very inconvenient, thanks to her intense attraction to her “in-name-only” husband.
BACHELOR GULCH is a little town that needs women, and the name of Sandra Steffen’s brand-new miniseries. The fun begins in Luke’s Would-Be Bride as a local bachelor falls for his feisty receptionist—the one woman in town not looking for a husband!
And there are plenty more compelling romances for you this month: A lovely lady rancher can’t wait to hightail it out of Texas—till she meets her handsome new foreman in Leanna Wilson’s Lone Star Rancher. A new husband can’t bear to tell his amnesiac bride that the baby she’s carrying isn’t his, in Her Forgotten Husband by Anne Ha. And one lucky cowboy discovers a night of passion has just made him a daddy in Teresa Southwick’s The Bachelor’s Baby.
I hope you enjoy all of June’s books!

The Tycoon’s Tots
Stella Bagwell
To Lloyd,
for all those inspiring speeches you used to give me. Love always.
STELLA BAGWELL
sold her first book to Silhouette in November 1985. Now thirty novels later she is still thrilled to see her books in print and can’t imagine having any other job than that of writing about two people falling in love.
She lives in a small town in southeastern Oklahoma with her husband of twenty-six years. She has one son and daughter-in-law.
Dear Reader.
It’s always a special treat for me to have the opportunity to speak to you directly and say a big thank-you for buying and reading my books—all thirty of them—down through the years!
Writing romances isn’t an easy job, but it is a very fulfilling one. I like to think I’m spreading a little love to each and every one of you through my books.
I’m especially proud of The Tycoon’s Tots, which features not one, but two adorable babies and two people who desperately want to be their parents. It also happens to be a continuation of my TWINS ON THE DOORSTEP miniseries.
The Tycoon’s Tots, as with the other
