Dear Reader,

Welcome back to Cedar River, South Dakota, and to my latest book from Harlequin Special Edition, Married to the Mom-to-Be!

You may remember the heroine, Kayla Rickard, from previous books in the Cedar River Cowboys miniseries. Kayla is the perfect daughter and the perfect friend. But when the beautiful museum curator suddenly finds herself also trying to be the perfect wife, she discovers that sometimes it’s impossible to please everyone—even the people you love most. Especially when the person she loves most, Liam O’Sullivan, is the son of her father’s mortal enemy and the one man she’s always been told is off-limits. But a Vegas wedding and a baby on the way blow her plans to keep their relationship a secret spectacularly out of the water!

As for Liam, he’s always been used to getting his own way. Until he meets Kayla. There’s no smooth road to love for these two, but the journey is one they will never forget.

I hope you enjoy Married to the Mom-to-Be, and I’d like to invite you back to Cedar River for Ash’s story, coming in August!
