Tonya Callihan keeps readers up-to-date with the best series romance books released by Harlequin and Silhouette.

Mid Month Releases plus some HOT eBooks!

As if my first column wasn’t hot enough, here are some more extremely hot reads from Harlequin as well as some heart-warming stories you won't want to miss.

Harlequin American Romance

The Marine's Babies by Laura Marie Altom is sure to be a charming read. Captain Jace Monroe was prepared for anything the Army threw his way. But he wasn’t prepared for twin babies in matching pink blankets left on his doorstep. These are his daughters and now he must find a nanny to help him. Emma Stewart is smart, funny, everything you would want including an excellent mother to his twins. Jace can’t help but wonder what Emma is hiding from him. But I assure you the secret isn’t what you think it is and once Jace finds it out, he wonders if it’s because she has fallen for his twin daughters or him? Maybe both?

Silhouette Desire

Montana Mistress by Sara Orwig is about a struggling hotel owner, Laurel Tolson. She’s tired of rich, arrogant men who believe their money is worth the world and buy anything and everything they want. But Chase Bennett has an offer she may not be able to refuse. He’s willing to match the price of her hotel, to help her out. Of course he has one condition. He wants Laurel to be his mistress for one month. It’s scandalous and sexy enough for her to take his offer, but not long after she does she finds herself falling in love. One month in Chase’s bed will never be enough. She wanted forever with him. But could she make him feel the same?

Harlequin Romance

Love is in the air for the month of May, with Harlequin Romance. Hired: Nanny Bride by Cara Colter is another example of love. Joshua Cole, playboy tycoon, didn’t want this, but the baby was his nephew and he felt obligated to help. Dannie Springer, the nanny, had had her heart broken and since then has hidden behind her nanny demeanor. Working closely with Joshua she sees another side to him, he’s more than a business man, he’s a man who cares enough about his nephew to put his life on hold. Seeing the real him, Dannie yearns for Joshua to see the real her, but will that only get her heart broken once again?

Harlequin Superromance

Summer at the Lake by Linda Barrett. I have just finished reading this book to do a review. It’s a very charming and heartwarming read. Kristin’s daughter, Ashley has gone through something horrible, something no child, no adult should have to ever go through. The cops in her hometown haven’t been much help and the prep has walked away from the crime. Now Kristin’s daughter isn’t talking much, she’s writing down what she wants to saw. But one night on the porch they hear a man playing a saxophone and it has an effect on her daughter that Kristin just knows is a turning point in her healing. Once they meet the man behind the saxophone, Rick, who turns out to be a cop, who is bound and determined not to return to the force after losing an innocent hostage. He doesn’t want to deal with someone else’s problems but is drawn to Kristin and her daughter. Can his saxophone and his dog help Ashley heal? During the process how will Kristin cope with falling in love with a cop, with a man, something she hasn’t felt since her husband died?
