      He stared at it, hardly breathing.

      

      He could erase it with the stroke of a key. No one was looking. It would take only seconds and he could wipe out the record, make sure no one ever knew. He glanced back into the nursery, craned his head to see baby Calli’s bed. The only things visible from this angle were her little fists waving in the air. His heart lurched and he shook his head, looking back at the screen.

      

      No. He wouldn’t erase his name. He was Calli’s father, and no one would ever be able to take that away from him.

      Dear Reader,

      

      Happy holidays from the staff at Silhouette Desire! As you can see by the special cover treatment this month, these books are our holiday gifts to you. And each and every story is so wonderful that I know you’ll want to buy extras to give to your friends!

      

      We begin with Jackie Merritt’s MAN OF THE MONTH, Montana Christmas, which is the conclusion of her spectacular MADE IN MONTANA series. The fun continues with Instant Dad, the final installment in Raye Morgan’s popular series THE BABY SHOWER.

      Suzannah Davis’s Gabriel’s Bride is a classic—and sensuous—love story you’re sure to love. And Anne Eames’s delightful writing style is highlighted to perfection in Christmas Elopement. For a story that will make you feel all the warmth and goodwill of the holiday season, don’t miss Kate Little’s Jingle Bell Baby.

      And Susan Connell begins a new miniseries—THE GIRLS MOST LIKELY TO…—about three former high school friends who are now all grown up in Rebel’s Spirit. Look for upcoming books in the series in 1997.

      Happy holidays and happy reading from

She’s been married to one of those Western men for twenty years and is busy raising four more in her Southern California home.

       Prologue

      THE INVITATIONS ARE OUT

      

      “Why do they call them baby showers, anyway?”

      Sara Parker looked up from the last of the invitations she was addressing. “I don’t know. Maybe because they are a celebration where you shower the baby with gifts.”

      “Hmm.” Jenny Kirkland sounded skeptical. Leaning back in her chair, she patted her rounded belly. “I just hope this little one arrives in time for the shower you’re having. It’ll be fun for you to show all your friends your new baby.”

      Sara glanced at where her sister’s hand was placed, an uneasy mixture of love and envy filling her eyes. If only she were the one who was pregnant instead of Jenny, this would all seem more natural. But no matter —the baby Jenny was carrying would soon be hers. It was the waiting that was so hard.

      Jenny laughed. “I don’t think so. Baby showers and a bunch of women getting together to play games and drink green punch are not exactly my sort of scene.”

      Sara knew she was only being honest. Jenny could usually be found wherever the music was the loudest and the men the handsomest. It was amazing that Sara СКАЧАТЬ
