I love
putting my heroes and heroines in a tough spot! It’s fun to see how they’ll
handle the situation—and doesn’t that just say so much about them? In Must Love Babies, the first book in my
new series, Brant Wylder is a bachelor and loving it! Lullabies, diapers
and night-time feedings are not in his future! He and his brothers own Wylder
Rydes and restore vintage motorcycles and cars, but they need to find a place
where they can expand.
In Misty
Bottoms, Georgia, for a wedding, Brant decides the small town might be exactly
what they need. Then he meets Molly Stiles, who has moved to Misty Bottoms to
open That Little White Dress, a
bridal boutique, joining her friends in their destination wedding business.
Everything
changes when Brant receives a call. His sister, who’s already done a stint in
rehab, has had a car accident while under-the-influence. Someone has to care
for her seven-month-old baby until she’s well, and that someone is Brant.
Temporary daddy. Who can resist a big, strong man holding a small
baby—especially one who is a fish-out-of-water? Brant can’t turn his back on
his nephew, and Molly can’t turn her back on Brant.
For those
of you who have read my Magnolia Brides
series, yes, I’m staying in Misty Bottoms for this new series. I simply wasn’t
ready to say goodbye to all the friends I’d made there…and I hope you’re not
either.
Must Love Babies is
available in mass market, ebook, and audio.
Wishing
you hours and hours and hours of happy reading!

Excerpt:
“Ready to finish the movie?” Molly took a handful of popcorn and
curled up on the lumpy sofa. The baby bathed, fed, and in bed, the lights low.
The happy couple…
Brant dropped down beside her.
“You are going to let him sleep in his own room tonight, aren’t
you?”
He leaned in and nuzzled her neck. “Probably, since someone set me
up with a baby monitor. Why don’t you stay the night and keep me company?” he
whispered against her ear. “Keep Uncle Brant from getting lonely.”
She shivered as his breath caressed her skin. “So not going to
happen, Wylder.”
“Maybe I can convince you.”
His lips moved along her neck, over her jaw, and up her face till
she was desperate for them on her own lips. “Brant.”
The kiss was heated, deep, and long, and arrowed to her core. She
forgot all the reasons she shouldn’t give in as her entire body became one huge
erogenous zone. Her blouse dropped to the floor under his clever fingers. His
lips slid along her throat again, trailed lower until they found her breasts.
Through the lace of her bra, his mouth closed over her, and she bowed up to
meet him.
Her own hands went to work on the buttons of his shirt, uncovering
that fabulous, hidden six-pack.
Jax’s cries finally forced their way through her sex fog. Placing
her palms on his chest, she drew back.
“Brant…”
“I hear him.” He drew her against him, bare skin to bare skin. “I
swear, I’m gonna follow that kid when he takes his first date parking. Right when
they get to the good part, I’m gonna turn on a flood light. Better, I’ll borrow
Sam’s police car and hit both the lights and the siren.”
“You do that.” She patted his fabulous bare chest. “Right now,
though, you need to change a dirty diaper, and I’m heading home. We can finish
the movie another night.”
He rolled off the sofa, muttering to himself.
Darlene was right. He definitely could stand to have that beautiful
mouth washed out with soap.

in a small town, that's where her heart takes her—to those quirky small towns
