The Millionaire's Cinderella Wife

The Millionaire's Cinderella Wife
Lilian Darcy

Can I beg you on my bended knees to stick around for a bit, Sierra? Ty said.Every woman on the entire East Coast would have dreamed of receiving such an offer from 'the handsome millionaire businessman who now graced the cover of A-list magazine. But not Sierra Garrett. Because few people knew that their "bachelor of the year" was still her husband! Sierra intended to correct that technicality. But, when she arrived, Ty sidetracked her with his proposition to ward off his new female fans.Of course, Ty had another motive. Because as long as Sierra stayed, he planned to use every charm known to mankind to convince jier to stay…and give their marriage a second chance!

“Help me out with this?” Ty begged.

“I don’t think so.”

Sierra put her hand on the door, intending to climb out of the car, but he leaned across and stopped her, laying one arm across both of hers. She froze. His bare arm brushed her stomach and would brush her breasts if she leaned just a little bit.

At one time they’d been way more intimate with each other than this, so she shouldn’t feel uncomfortable about it. Problem was, his touch opened up too many memories, and too many lost possibilities.

“I’m not joking, okay?” Ty said, with his voice dropped low. “Stay. A couple of weeks.”

“I—I can’t.”

“You’re on school summer break. Your family can manage without you. Some people consider Stoneport a great place for a vacation.”

Sierra’s heart shouldn’t race like this. Her head shouldn’t spin. And she should absolutely not consider that he was offering a second chance at their marriage.

Dear Reader,

What are your favorite memories of summer? Even though I spend my days reading manuscripts, I love nothing better than basking in the sun’s warm glow as I sit immersed in a great book. If you share this pleasure with me, rest assured that I can make packing your beach bag really easy this month!

Certainly, you’ll want to make room in your bag for Patricia Thayer’s A Taste of Paradise (SR #1770), part of the author’s new LOVE AT THE GOODTIME CAFÉ miniseries. Thayer proves that romance is the order of the day when a sexy sheriff determined to buy back his family’s ranch crosses paths with a beautiful blond socialite who is on the run from an arranged marriage. Watch the sparks fly in Rich, Rugged…Royal by Cynthia Rutledge (SR #1771) in which an ordinary woman discovers that the man whom she had a one-night affair with is not only her roommate but also a royal! International bestselling author Lilian Darcy offers an emotional tale about an estranged couple who are reunited when the hero is named bachelor of the year, in The Millionaire’s Cinderella Wife (SR #1772). Finally, I’m delighted to introduce you to debut author Karen Potter whose Daddy in Waiting (SR #1773) shows how a mix-up at a fertility clinic leads to happily ever after.

And be sure to leave some room in your bag next month when Judy Duarte kicks off a summer-themed continuity set at a county fair!

Happy reading,

Ann Leslie Tuttle
