But the patriarch who is the H father does not want him to marry the h and tries to get her fired from her job and at the end pushes her into traffic but later changes his mind and saves her at the cost of his life. Please help

No this is not the book. Coz in that book the twin kids were a boy and a girl. And herpine has borne them and her sister and brother in law adopted those kids.

Hi Angy, I'm pretty sure the book you are looking for is The Italian's Convenient Wife.

Jacqueline - I think you nailed it! Coincidentally I've been reading Catherine Spencer's HP collection this week (she doesn't seem to write HP anymore), but I didn't have that one and one other! No electronic copies available - that I could find either, via amazon.

Monica Rogers | 15 comments I'm looking for a harlequin where the book starts near the end of a couple's relationship. I recall the book starts by the heroine preparing for a dance or ball or something and putting on earrings (weird that's what I recall, I know). It's kind of a plot twist as the book goes on you realize they're really trying to start over. I have no idea if this is enough info to get an answer but I had to try! Thanks in advance :)

Sorry, I think you want The Divorce Party Jennifer Hayward - tho there was an Everlasting love or two like that A Christmas Wedding by Tracy Wolff, All That Love Is Ginger Chambers and maybe The Scrapbook by Lynnette Kent.

RomLibrary | 260 comments that the one. Thanks !

message 2870: by Se (new)

Se Mcgregor | 550 comments I don't have much info, only vague recollection of these two but here goes...

1980's is the approximate timeframe,

Book 1
H goes to South America somewhere to marry husband. I think arranged marriage or mail order bride, perhaps she even married him in UK then flew out there later? She is out of her depth, in harsh country. I remember H getting badly sunburnt when out riding then getting really sick, hero had to carry her to bathroom.

Book 2
H is a nanny. There is a lot of snow around, perhaps set in Switzerland or French alps. I think she ends up in marriage of convenience to the hero to stay and look after his children. I remember she had really long hair which she cut really short after argument with husband. I think there as a nasty OW too.

Pinky | 18 comments Girl wakes up with stranger, later becomes pregnant, Harlequin.
Hi i know you guys are amazing at helping can anyone pls help find this book i read from a lending library a few yrs back. All i can remember about the book is the girl wakes up in a strange room finds a stranger in bed whom she has made love with. she quitely slips away i dont remember if he gets up it is a motel or hotel room. Later i recall she becomes pregnant. The guy insists on engagement. I dont remember much else other then a name george or georgie seems to ring a bell. probably H is a lawyer. Its a old M&B or HArlequin with one of the royal blue covers. The story i think is set in a small town of america. And i think the girls house or farm is a little away from main town.recall that when the H insists on an engagement ring they drive to a nearby town to buy an engagement ring whether that was to avoid public scrutiny or because there is no reputable jeweler in town I don't know . girl feels in the beginning that she is tomboy and decides to let go for one night either it is Christmas/new year/or some birthday party in which she has drunk herself. She also probably works with horses

willaful | 344 comments I don't think it is Waterfalls of the Moon. That doesn't have an arranged marriage, they get married in England, and I can't find the scene described.


message 2877: by Gloria (new)

Gloria | 25 comments Oh yes Ive remembered a bit more about the book I'm looking for

I don't think that's it. Perhaps a bit early, I really think it's 80's. The clearest part for me is the going riding, getting lost / sunburnt, getting sick and being looked after by the hero. Thank you for suggestion though!

Book 1 might be Angela Wells Errant Daughter or Catherine George True Paradise or Sara Craven Witch's Harvest - the h's get sick in these, tho it isn't sunburn if I recall.

Book 2 might be Frances Roding Open to Influence or Susan Alexander's Winter Sunlight

Thanks Boogenhagen - I think Winter Sunlight might be right, just have to try and find a copy. Will check out the others and edit this post. Thanks again!

Masha Hello, I posted the following sometime in June hoping to find this book. Was advised to re-post with the eliminated titles.

the original message -

Hi, i have been looking for this book that i read maybe a couple of years ago. H and h are married but are separated because of H's mother. h lives with her grandmother i think. h is poor and has a kid that H doesn't know exists! The kid has some kind of terminal illness. H and h are forced to come together to make a baby so that the sick kid can have stem cells (i think). H also comes to know of his mother's interference in his marriage. Not sure what happens in the end, i mean if the kid lives... I don't remember the title or the author of this book and it's driving me crazy. Please help.

ruled out books
The Seven Year Secret by Roz Denny Fox
The Tie That Binds by Laura Gale
The Giannakis Bride by Catherine Spencer
The Miracle Baby by Janice Kay Johnson
Pregnant by Greek Tycoon
The Valentine Child (Wedlocked!) Jacqueline Baird

many thanks again to all those who helped. let me know if you can think of a book like this!

thanks

I heart ❤︎ books ❤︎ Renu | 27 comments Hi, i've been searching for this book where h and H's sister are close friends and she invites h to italy or something.

First scene is h is in jail and phones H to bail her, h is robbed and assulted by cab driver but no one understands her language ( police thinks she's a prostitute ). In past, H wants to marry h but H's sister meddles by saying h has bf's to make H haste in asking h's hand in marriage and h's step brother lies to H saying they are sleeping together. H sees them embracing which is staged by h's stepbro.

H later finds out h is virgin and there is a confrontation by the end of the book with stepbro ( H and stepbro fight). h/H get married HEA.

Anyone has any idea about the title of the book please!

Samantha | 2 comments Hi everyone! I am looking for the title of an older Harlequin or Harlequin Presents book that I think was published in the 1980s or early 1990s. I can only remember bits and pieces of the story. The hero and heroine are both single parents and have two daughters that become friends. I believe the heroine and hero start working together and they do not get along. The hero is a bit of a ladies man and the heroine is not a fan of this. They go to a work function and dance together. The hero gets the flu and the heroine has to take care of him. I think they have a steamy encounter in the kitchen. That’s really all I can remember. If anyone has any suggestions, please just let me know!! Thank you :)

It doesn't match your description completely, but you may want to check Loving by Penny Jordan. They don't work together, attend a dance, and hero doesn't get sick with heroine attending to him, but the rest fits. Good luck!
