      He’s falling for his clients’ legal guardian...

      But can business and love ever mix?

      Signing a young sister and brother to his new talent agency could be a great move for Adam Wilding, especially when he meets their legal guardian. Cassie Bryant’s first priority is her niece’s and nephew’s welfare. But she herself remains a mystery. Can Adam convince this prickly, stubborn, utterly appealing woman they’re not as different as she thinks?

      As a kid, CALLIE ENDICOTT had her nose stuck in a book so often it frequently got her in trouble. The trouble hasn’t stopped—she keeps having to buy new bookshelves. Luckily ebooks don’t take up much space. Writing has been another help, since she’s usually on the computer creating stories instead of buying them. Callie loves bringing characters to life and never knows what will prompt an idea. So she still travels, hikes, explores and pursues her other passions, knowing a novel may be just around the corner.

      “I want the twins to dream whatever they want to dream.” Cassie truly meant those words.

      “You’d probably make a good talent agent for kids,” said Adam.

      “Me?” Cassie snickered. “Hardly. I like my orderly career in web programming. It makes the rest of life’s messiness easier to face.”

      “You’re great with computers, but you also have solid instincts for people.”

      The compliment was sincere, but it was the look in his eyes that made her pulse jump. When Adam leaned closer and kissed her, it was everything it should have been. His lips were firm, his arms strong and gentle. But the moment was so brief, it left her aching for more.

      Dear Reader,

      I’m so excited to have my next Emerald City story published with Harlequin Heartwarming.

      My hero, Adam Wilding, is a special guy who became a famous model more or less by accident. Now he’s embarked on a second career as a talent agent, and he has his hands full with Cassie Bryant, the aunt and guardian of his two newest clients. Cassie can be a little prickly, but she’s fiercely protective of her niece and nephew.

      The two cats in my household have an odd relationship—the female dislikes all other felines, and the male just wants to play. There’s a great deal of spitting, but not the all-out war that we expected. Over time it’s become clear that a certain amount of affection has grown between the two.

      Relationships aren’t easy, but the fun part of writing is that I don’t have to just wait and watch. Adam and Cassie have a number of hurdles to overcome before they find their way together...but I enjoyed showing how they got there.
