Maggie | 7 comments I have another one I need help with. I believe this may have been one of the free short online reads from Harlequin,but under the HP line. h was a model and H's mistress. They break up and she goes home to a ranch where her mother is the housekeeper? Or her parents owns the ranch. The H and the owner of the ranch are doing some business. h is pregnant. I also remember a scene where the H lands on the ranch in his helicopter. TIA

This is a guess, may send everyone off on a wild goose chase.The one I'm thinking of was not a short read but part of a series, the name "The Barons " comes to mind. The series came out late 90's early 2000. Sandra Marton?

mystic_rose | 11 comments Would be very grateful if someone could help me find this book!

H and h are former lovers who are reunited a few years later. I think they broke up due to a misunderstanding, so their relationship is fairly hostile and angsty.

The h is raising a baby that belongs to another family member. The family member was unable to cope with raising a child, so she left the baby with the h. The H visits the h’s house and thinks that the baby belongs to the h. This is the major misunderstanding for most of the book and it’s not resolved until the final few chapters.

I think the h sends a letter to the baby’s real parents so that they’ll come forward and claim their child, but it takes them weeks to respond. In the meantime the H is extremely angry and jealous that the h supposedly had a child with another man. The h is furious that he won’t believe her and there’s plenty of angsty bickering between them.

The misunderstanding is finally resolved when the bio parents arrive to collect the baby. H sees a copy of the baby’s birth certificate and realizes that the h was not the mother.

Other details:
- H wasn’t a billionaire tycoon type, although he was likely rich.
- Book wasn’t Deceit of a Pagan by Carole Mortimer.

Maggie | 7 comments Thank you. That's it. As soon as I saw the name Gabriella, I knew it was the right one. I should have known it was one of the older HP writers. Sadly her indie books just aren't the same. 🤦‍♀️

Bee Mills (beemills) | 50 comments Google is being singularly uncooperative today :( I'm looking for an HP I read a while ago where the H/h have been married for a few years. They have a son and the h is pregnant again.

They have a car accident and the H forgets the h - remembers their son but not her.

Anyone got a name?

I remember this book by the blurb because I remember thinking it sounded original but I know I haven't read it. I will be on the lookout for you for this title. Have you asked Boogenhagen?

Bee Mills (beemills) | 50 comments Thanks for that, I think it is the Christmas Baby one. What a silly title...


message 4512: by Maggie (new)

Maggie | 7 comments I think the book originally released around December hence the Christmas title. It's one of my fav books.

Thanks RomLibrary! I've been searching through my epub library trying to find it. The only other detail I can vaguely remember is that it seemed like an “old-school” romance in the style of Carole Mortimer or Sally Wentworth.

message 4523: by Danielle (new)

Danielle | 10 comments Hi everyone, I'm looking for the name/author of a book.

I believe the hero is royalty and he believes that he is unable to have children.

The heroin was born with an illness that affects her spine (I don't remember the name) and she grows up wearing a back brace. She feels different from the other kids. Her parents don't let her play soccer, etc. So when the brace comes off she leave and starts a new life for herself. She does not want to have children because she does not want to pass on her illness to her child. The illness is technically not hereditary, but her mom had it too.

Hero and heroine are having a secret affair with the assumption that neither of them wants children. When she becomes pregnant, she is really scared and he is really happy. He wants them to marry, saying that he will love the baby. She does not agree until he finally tells her that he loves her too.

thanks for the help :)

This is the Harlequin Presents thread. You may have better luck posting your question on the Historical threads.

I do have one suggestion for you. Look at Patricia Grasso's To Catch A Countess. The h was dyslexic and everyone made fun of her.

Near the end, h is meeting H in Athens? to go to ball or party. She goes to his previous apartment unknowingly and his niece is stepping out of the shower. h thinks H is having affair and she runs away. I would guess early to mid 2000's
