Falling for You

2005

Police spokeswoman Megan Esterbrook has a problem—she's a sucker for sexy reporter Barry Sutton. Whatever he wants, she gives him, regardless of the cost. But that's about to stop—now! And to keep strong, she's come up with a surefire "Barry aversion therapy" — index cards to remind her why she should stay away. Now all she has to do is remember to use them.... Barry Sutton used me to dig up information on a story. It almost got me fired! He's so good-looking, I do stupid things when he's around, like bending the rules to help him break another story. He kissed me and now he wants me to break in to a congressman's office with him! He's got me so hot, I'm ready to do anything he wants! HELP!!

When she bumps into gorgeous Will Murchison, she's ecstatic. The hunk from her past would be a perfect one-night stand, she thinks - until Cecily learns he's taken. What she doesn't realize, though, is Will isn't married. But he's using the misunderstanding to ensure he's the guy who fulfills sexy Cecily's needs.

This author also writes as Heather Allison. Heather MacAllister lives in Texas and is married to her high-school sweetheart. Following the instructions in How to Get a Teen-Age Boy, and What to Do with Him When You Get Him by Ellen Peck, one of her all-time favorite books, she expressed an interest in his hobby—ham radio. He challenged her—learn Morse code and get her license, and he’d take her to the senior prom. She did, and currently sports her call sign, WB5RMA, on her car license plate. Heather became addicted to romance novels in college, yet still managed to graduate and become a music teacher. And then her sons were born. Within seven months, nine baby-sitters quit, so she took pity on the childcare industry, quit teaching, and began avoiding housework by writing during her sons’ nap time. Heather has published over 40 books with Harlequin. Her award-winning romantic comedies have been translated into 25 languages and published in dozens of countries. Before she was published, Heather won the Romance Writer's of America Golden Heart Award. Her published novels have been nominated for the RWA RITA award three times, and eHarlequin.com readers voted LONE STAR SANTA favorite Laugh-Out-Loud book of 2006. In addition to awards for best Harlequin Romance and best Harlequin Temptation, Romantic Times Book Reviews has twice nominated Heather for a Career Achievement Award in Series Love and Laughter. When she's not writing, Heather spends her time collecting vintage jewelry, watching fireworks displays, and killing plants.
