Looking for a an older HP - If I remember correctly - it is probably from the 70 or 80s - I have been researching and looking for a long time and unable to find :-(
The beginning starts out with the heroine (who is a nanny) going to ski with the children that she is governing with the father of the children. The mother is evidently at home in bed not feeling well. The scene I remember is all of them in the car driving together going to ski.
So fast forward and they return home from the ski venture and the next thing that I remember is drama of some sort and the mother of the children asking the nanny - ( heroine )- if she would go to see a man who lives on a ranch/farm to talk with him for the mother. I believe he is a bullfighter. Evidently the mother believes that she and this man are having a love affair of some sort, but the man, if I remember correctly, states that he is not having a love affair with the mother.
The heroine arrives at the ranch - (enter the Hero - which is the man the mother thinks that she is having an affair with) When she arrives at the ranch/farm, somehow the Hero decides he wants this girl as his wife and he does everything he can to coerce her to marry him. I think he actually demands it. At one point, I do remember he takes her to a bullfight to watch him, but somehow she escapes from the arena and tries to leave, but then enter an awful, crazy OW - who tries to place the heroine in danger of some sort.
I hope that I do not have two books mixed up - but if you remember anything similar to what I have mentioned, any suggestions would be appreciated. I have been going crazy looking for this book. :-(
Thanks again you all for trying :-)

Maybe The Greek Prince's Chosen Wife or another book from this list: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/8...

Could also be (if it was set in Australia)
The Heir from Nowhere Trish Morey
Other search area could be "IVF Mistake"

Thank you!!! willaful. yes, it was The Greek Prince's Chosen Wife.


Your book might be "The Unfaithful Wife by Lynne Graham"
This one is similar"
Also by Lynne Graham - The Greek's Chosen Wife

Romance books are fiction. Not as many billionaires as they would have you believe wandering around either.
eg. There a a couple of thousand billionaires globally, less than 20 of those from Greece - yet so many books about them!

The last king of Greece was deposed in the 70's then monarchy was abolished.

But to be fair, the exiled royal family is still known as prince so and so of Greece...

I know that they came to live in the UK (until a couple of years ago when they returned to Greece, where they live now without their titles and a simple -but rich- civilians) because of all the tax they owed, not because the referendum that kicked them out of office (I hope we get a similar result on the Windsors some time this century in the UK) also kicked them out of the country. They are known as 'ex' so and so everywhere.

That book is quite new, I thought search was for older one? Close to the worst I've ever read. Picked it up for $2 on Amazon and nearly asked for a refund!


Thank you very much Wanda tthat's the one

I think it's this book by Sara Craven
The Marchese's Love Child


I have totally read this book but I can't seem to find it. I thought it might have been a Maya Banks title. I'll keep looking.

It is . It's The Tycoon's Secret Affair (The Anetakis Tycoons #3):
She hadn't known she'd slept with the boss. But the next morning Jewel Henley learned the exotic stranger who'd swept her off her feet was her new employer, Piers Anetakis. And before she could explain, Jewel found herself without a job...and pregnant.After five months Piers had finally tracked down his one-night lover. Determined to explain the mistakes that had been made, he was confronted with an undeniable truth. Jewel was carrying his child. His Greek honor demanded they marry. Yet was there more between them than lust...and was it enough to make their marriage of convenience last?

Oh I absolutely love you!!! Thank you so much!!


2 - Very easy, I just re-read it two days ago. It's book two in a four?book series by Dani Collins.
More than a Convenient Marriage?
Could book 1 be one of Carol Marinelli's Do you recall if he is Russian? In - Bound to the Warrior King by Maisey Yates, the hero doesn't know his age and they discuss how he has never received a birthday cake.

The beginning starts out with the heroine (who is a nanny) going to ski with the children that she is governing with the father of the children. The mother is evidently at home in bed not feeling well. The scene I remember is all of them in the car driving together going to ski.
So fast forward and they return home from the ski venture and the next thing that I remember is drama of some sort and the mother of the children asking the nanny - ( heroine )- if she would go to see a man who lives on a ranch/farm to talk with him for the mother.

Chawanzi - Any idea which decade? Sounds familiar. UK Based?

Yes it was UK based actually! I can't be sure which decade but I would guess late 90s to early 2000s. I'm sorry I can't remember more, I read it years ago. The hero drove a huge truck and had to lift her in on their first date


Sounds a bit like The Pregnancy Affair by Anne Mather. Hero drives a truck/4WD, she is wearing very high heels and he does have to lift her up - they were briefly married as teenagers. The hero was close to her father who had a farm. Not sure it's the same one though, maybe too many differences to your recollection. I threw hundreds of my old M&B out when I moved house. Mainly keep electronic collection these days - easier to search through.

Thank you Rose for reminding me to post this!! I found this finally after looking and searching..
Sweet Torment
I think I had the ending incorrect by memory - but everything else flows.
Thank you all :-)

He comes in looking to marry someone to save a company and to keep it as his. Vera marries him.
Years later she seeks him out to get a divorce, but they end up in love.
What's the title of this old romance book?



Thank you!


Not sure, sounds familiar, could it be Trish Morey The Spaniard's Blackmailed Bride ?
If it's set in NSW north coast, many Miranda Lee books are set there.

I am looking for an old Silhouette (the ones with the purple border on the cover). I think early 80s.
The heroine had amnesia. As she and the hero went walking in the woods one day, they either found a dog or it was the hero’s dog. Anyway, it was walking funny and in pain or something. The heroine examined it and popped its shoulder back in place, because it was dislocated.
Turns out, she was a veterinarian.
Anybody remember this?
TIA!

small town, second chance kind of story, the heroine is from the wrong side of track, Hero comes from rich family and Heros family does not like heroine at all. heroine leaves the town dont remember why but she comes back later. meanwhile Hero is engaged to a nice homely school teacher. However once Heroine is back hero and heroine cannot stay away from each other and then HEA. I remember one scene where hero and heroine are really intimate and the hero's mother comes into the house.
Thanks in advance for the help to identify the name.

Meets her hero and has relationship with him she becomes pregnant but not sure weather it's her fiances's or the heroes please help me

Could it be Choices by Lacey Dancer? - It was originally released in 1990 called Silent Enchantment but re-released/"enhanced reprint" in 2013.
Choices

-it..."
Tara - What about Don't Let Me Die!? Lead character is Lucy, she has an accident with tractor/trailer, is trapped. Her boyfriend is called Dash. I haven't read this one, and it's not harlequin. I had read Choices though. Maybe some more details, 80's, 90's, 00's ? Perhaps someone else might know it.

I'm looking for an older harlequin.
I think î read it about two years ago but it's definitely an older one.
so, the heroine was only 17 or 18 when she married the older H.
she left England (I think) with the H. they moved to wherever he came from.
the Health owns a Farm or smth like that. it's still growing, so he has to put in a lot of work, work he shares with his Assistant that hashe a slight obsession with him. The Assistant- ow puts a lot of effort into keeping the Hero away from home-his wife. h starts to get jealous.
she's having temper tantrums and keeps fighting with the H.
H keeps calling her Childish (well DUUUHH you married a freaking teen -.-')
anyways have gets fed up, packs and leaves.
a few years later.
the h is in the hospital with (forgot what kind of sickness.)
anyways, the doctor tells her mother that she needs to leave England and England and the cold weather.
her mother doesn't have enough money to make it happen, so she calls the H. He comes an takes sick h back to the farm. OW is still his assistant. blah blah blah....
H rapes h, gets her pregnant.
h tries to run off again.
H figures out that the OW is a lying lunatic, runs after h and begs for forgiveness.
would be great if someone could help me.
