***rewrite/revised version of Almost A Bride written under the pen name Raye Morgan When he hijacks his brother's fiancé from the wedding, is he doing a favor for his brother—or himself? Kendall McCormick got left at the altar and she's decided fate is trying to tell her something. Men—who needs them? But when she finds out the man who rescued her from humiliation at the chapel is really her ex-fiancé's big brother—and the one who convinced her fiancé to dump her—things don't seem so simple anymore. Rafe Carrington is dealing with a lot of things that have him stressed out—including learning how to live with his two little girls now that his wife has died. Still, even when stressed out, he doesn't usually steal his brother's women. It's just plain tacky. But there's something about Kendall that grabs him in the gut. He should leave her alone, but he can't ignore the aching need to have her—in his life and in his bed. Includes love scenes Original published in print by SILHOUETTE DESIRE and recently revised as part of the Destiny Bay Series.

Helen Conrad
Author · 22 books

aka Jena Hunt and Raye Morgan. Helen Conrad was born on April 11, 1945 in Pasadena, California, U.S.A. and grew up between Holland, Guam, and California, and spent a few years in Washington, D.C. as well. She obtained a B.A. in English Literature. Helen was working toward a Master's in Library Science when she dropped out to have her first son. "One look into those baby blue eyes and I knew it was going to be a long time before I went back to school. But with young ones, you do have time to read, and the more I read, the more I learned about writing". She started writing because she felt guilty about spending so much time reading. "Through writing I figured I could still immerse myself in the stories I love, but I could actually claim I was working! The amazing thing was when I sold my first book and the excuse was justified. Dreams really do come true!" After years of writing romantic suspense in the style of Mary Stewart and children's books in a lot of styles, she finally sold a romance to Jove's Second Chance at Love and there was celebration all around-at least in her ever-patient family of husband and four boys. She published four more romances for Jove under the name Jena Hunt, then began writing Silhouette Desires. A few sales to Bantam Loveswept and Harlequin Romance, Temptationand SuperRomance under the name Helen Conrad followed, as well as to Harpers, Dell Ecstasy, Mills & Boon, and even an historical with Zebra. Today, she is concentrating on Silhouette Romance, completely captivated by the breezy fun and touching poignancy of their compact, to-the-point form. She feels the perfect "quick read" should make the reader smile, sigh and put the book down feeling better about the state of love in the world. Now, she lives in the Los Angeles area now with Nick, her geologist-computers cientist husband and the two of her four sons who still live at home."Having the boys around helps keep me up on the current trends," she says with a laugh. "But writing helps keep me in touch with the romance that weaves through the everyday lives we all live."
