“Oh, I’ve found her already,” Aaron said.

Something made Shelly catch her breath. He actually sounded as if he meant it. Could this be happening? Had some special woman secured a place in Aaron’s heart? “Why haven’t you told me about her?”

“Because she hasn’t said yes yet”

“Forgive me, but I hardly think you’re serious.”

“Oh, I am. With any luck I’ll be engaged before, say, the seventeenth of May….”

Shelly felt as if a rug were being pulled out from under her. “You’re saying you’ll be engaged by the time I get married?”

“No. I’ll be engaged before you get married….”

Have you heard the great things being said about Husband Next Door by Anne Ha?

“I enjoyed every page. When Shelly tries to teach Aaron the proper way to dump a woman, I laughed out loud. This talented new writer offers a warm and gentle twist on the sweet traditional romance, hinting at wonderful stories to come.”

—Bestselling author Leigh Michaels

“Husband Next Door is a charming and piquant tale filled with a wry sense of the absurd. This debut novel by a very talented writer is not to be missed; Anne Ha is going to the top, fast.”

—Affaire de Coeur

Dear Reader,

Happy Valentine’s Day! Silhouette Romance’s Valentine to you is our special lineup this month, starting with Daddy by Decision by bestselling, award-winning author Lindsay Longford. When rugged cowboy Buck Riley sees his estranged ex with a child who looks just like him, he believes the little boy is his son. True or not, that belief in his heart—and his love for mother and child—is all he needs to be a FABULOUS FATHER.

And we’re celebrating love and marriage with I’M YOUR GROOM, a five-book promotion about five irresistible heroes who say “I do” for a lifetime of love. In Carolyn Zane’s It’s Raining Grooms, a preacher’s daughter prays for a husband and suddenly finds herself engaged to her gorgeous childhood nemesis. To Wed Again? by DeAnna Talcott tells the story of a divorced couple who are blessed with a second chance at marriage when they become instant parents. Next, in Judith Janeway’s An Accidental Marriage, the maid of honor and the best man are forced to act like the eloped newlyweds when the bride’s parents arrive!

Plus, two authors sure to become favorites make their Romance debuts this month. In Husband Next Door by Anne Ha, a very confirmed bachelor is reformed into marriage material, and in Wedding Rings and Baby Things by Teresa Southwick, an anyminute mom-to-be says “I do” to a marriage of convenience that leads to a lifetime of love….

I hope you enjoy all six of these wonderful books.

Warm wishes,

Melissa Senate, Senior Editor Silhouette Books
