As soon as Brooke met Garrett she knew he was a charmer. Women probably just rolled over when he petted them, much the same way her cats, traitors all, had responded to him. The best thing for Brooke was to keep out of his way, but she just couldn't now that Garrett's five-year-old daughter, Molly, was without a mother or a nanny and so much in need of her love and affection.
Well, so be it, and if Garrett Jackson did start his seduction routine on her he would soon discover that she wasn't about to offer him breakfast in her bed!
Ruth Jean Dale writes humour because there's too much angst in her life already. She resides in a Colorado pine forest with one husband (the original), one dog (a 10-pound Maltese named Spike), and two cats (Thom and Patches). Her favourite things are writing and laughing (and champagne). Published with Harlequin since 1989, she's written more than two dozen books for Romance, Superromance, Temptation, Duets, Love and Laughter, Historical, and novellas for both Harlequin and St. Martin's. If she had any spare time, which she doesn't, she'd spend it at her Pfaff 7570 sewing machine embroidering toilet paper and other such worthwhile projects.
