Maureen Child - An Outrageous Proposal


Falling in love wasn't part of the deal
When Georgia Page accepts Sean Connolly's proposal, she knows it's crazy. But surely she can pretend to be a self-made billionaire's fiancé e for a little while, just until his mother regains her health. Surely she can keep her heart out of this affair, no matter how sexy he is-or how well he plays the devoted lover.

It all seems so simple-until their pretend kisses and fake embraces lead to something all too real, something neither of them expected. Something that could turn an outrageous proposal into wedding bells...

What are friends for?
She wants a baby. He needs an heir. It seems like the perfect arrangement...until they decide to conceive the old-fashioned way.

Having a baby with his best friend is the means to an end for Nick Caroselli. In his quest to receive a ten-million-dollar inheritance, he'll also be giving Theresa Phillips the one thing she really wants...a child. Once the baby's born and the money's in the bank, they can divorce, share custody and go back to being buddies. But their best-laid plans are about to take a sharp turn under the mistletoe, as things really heat up this Christmas.

She didn't look like any secretary he'd ever met
Billionaire Zach Delaney needs a live-in assistant while he recuperates from an injury. But when Emma Hillman arrives at his Texas ranch with her suitcase, he knows he'll have to work hard to resist her. She's sexy and efficient, but way too family-oriented for a risk-taking globe-trotter like him.

Emma is supposed to type, file and sort through centuries-old Delaney family letters-not be seduced by her gorgeous boss into a can't-last affair. But as she tries to transform Zach into a man who values family, she ends up expecting a Delaney of her own. Will Zach head for his jet...or welcome his Christmas heir?
