A Lullaby for the Maverick

Montana Mavericks: The Anniversary Gift #6

by Melissa Senate

How can doing the right thing feel so wrong?

Wedding singer Bethany McCreery just got dumped…and now she's unexpectedly pregnant. Disappointed by more than one man in her past, she opts to embrace single motherhood. Until she meets wealthy rancher Theo Abernathy at her brother's wedding, that is. She knows she should just walk away. With all his commitments, Theo can't be both partner and father right now—at least not the kind Bethany and her baby deserve. But they're unable to keep their distance, on a collison course that could lead them to heartbreak…or forever.

About the author

I'm the author of more than fifty novels, including my debut, SEE JANE DATE (also available in cute TV movie form to stream). I write emotional, heartfelt romances for Harlequin Special Edition. I've also had two novels published under a secret pen name, but I will happily share if you message me to ask. I also wrote seven Special Edition novels under the pen name Meg Maxwell.

I'm a proud mom and animal devotee who lives on the southern coast of Maine. 4 new Harlequin Special Edition novels are coming in in 2026 starting in late January with The Rancher's Famed Triplets, part of my Dawsons Family Ranch series. Look for The Cowboy's Surprise Baby in July.

I don't usually read Harlequin romance novels but as far as cheesy romance novels go this one was pretty good.
