Romance Contemporary

Dana Wiley is haunted by a life-changing decision she made six years ago. On that day, she freaked out at the idea of getting married, sure that she and her fiancé would end up destroying each other. (After all, look what marriage had done to her parents!) Clad in her white wedding dress, she left Nick standing in the church, devastated.

And though she still thinks about him, Dana can't bring herself to get past the wedding thing. On top of a marriage phobia, she's barely speaking to her mom, who makes her absolutely crazy. When she's called home on an emergency, she is stunned to find Nick at her mother's apartment, and even more stunned to find out her mom has been kidnapped. And that Nick does "favors" for her mother.

This zany story is a blast. You have absolutely no idea what's coming next, and not because you're not sure whodunit. Nope. You're just not sure what Dana and Nick are capable of doing. Add in Dana's wacky mom being held captive by inept kidnappers and a fascinating thief with torn loyalties, and you've got a couple of hours of great reading. Light and fun, you'll enjoy MAYBE BABY.

SUMMARY

DANA WILEY'S TRUE CONFESSIONS

(Or How Did I Get into This Mess?)

My mother's being held by kidnappers, and only Nick Maybe, the man I left at the altar six years ago, knows how to find the ransom-a big, smelly, flightless parrot.

Manhattan isn't exactly ideal for wildlife-unless you're talking about me and Nick. How can a man I haven't seen in six years make me so crazy-in all meanings of the word?

So the bird's worth a quarter million, and it turns out we're not the only ones who want it. Great. And Nick keeps looking at me with those eyes and kissing me with those lips...Oh, what the hell. There isn't a statute of limitations on love. Is there?
