I am looking for a book that I have read in the past, probably 2010ish. The heroine is a prostitute and she has one night with the hero and when she looks into his eyes she starts crying. She ends up getting pregnant and sees a chance at a better life for her and her little girl. She becomes a housekeeper? for the hero. Thanks in advance!!!!

hi, I am looking for a novel where a mistress has a son and he gets kidnapped from a hospital and the father realises he has a son when he sees a picture on the news.

Hi, I need help finding an two older Harlequin Presents books. In the first I don't remember the name of the characters, only that it's an office romance. The new boss saves his secretary/assistant from rape and gets tired of waiting for her to get over the trauma and see that he loves her. He keeps pushing her out of her comfort zone to shock her into facing her demons. In the second one, there is a poem about an apple tree toward the front. I remember thinking it's a strange thing to have in a Harlequin novel, but I liked the poem. Thanks everybody!

Can you remember anything else about the second one? Both Sara Craven and Margaret Way use poetry in their HP's - as do a few other authors.
Tho Rowan Kirby's Only My Dreams has a poem that goes "I had a little apple tree, it was all I had, it's blossoms were quite beautiful..."
Hello readers! I'm looking for a book where the hero and the heroine are from different clans, I remember that they get married but they have many problems because H thinks that the heroin is still faithful to her clan, I also remember that in one oppurtunity they discussed in front of other people and the H threw h down a cliff and believed that she was dead. I hope someone recognizes this book. Thanks!
hello. can you recommend me book where hero and heroine are married but shortly after their marriage heroine abandons hero because he doesn't appreciate her and his family doesn't like her? they are mean and hurtful. or hero pushes heroine away because he was told lies about her.
Hi hope someone can help. I never actually read the book, I read the synopsis here on goodreads. Here goes the hero is presumed dead and meets up with the heroine again at a wedding i think. Cant remember much I thought at the time I would like to read it and for some bizarre reason I've lost the link for it !

Would love any help with the 2 books I'm looking for.1.
It's a Harlequin Presents. 2000's Most likely a Lynne Graham book but I could be wrong. The heroine in the book runs away from hero knowingly pregnant for the second time. She ends up working for a real estate agent in the English countryside, also pregnant, whose husband abandoned her and her other children. Soon after the woman has her child the heroine goes into labor (premature- I think) and finds herself in a cottage hospital in the hallway, alone, terribly upset when the hero suddenly appears and comes to the rescue!
2.
This one is an oldie. This one is more likely a Harlequin Romance or an early Harlequin Presents. I'm thinking perhaps the former. I've asked before without any luck perhaps some new members might know of this one.
It keeps haunting me because the heroine isn't the typical Harlequin heroine at that time period.
This is what I remember of the plot. It's a marriage of convenience. Heroine's father wants to leave his business to hero but wishes his daughter future secured and pushes them to get married. If I remember correctly father was ill. Hero and heroine have their own reasons to agree to the arrangement. The book is very typical of its time only the heroine mentally describes their love making as disappointing. She doesn't enjoy the hero's love making. And this is not a one time thing. No stars exploding, nothing. Memorable only for that particular reason:)
Appreciate your input!

The Italian Billionaire's Pregnant Bride Lynne Graham
Do you remember anything else about the second one? Like when it might have been published?
Tho the lack of enjoyment sounds like a Sara Craven book. Maybe A Bad Enemy
Thank You!!!The Lynne Graham book was the one!
Sara Craven's A Bad Enemy wasn't the book but I will go through her backlist and see if one of them jogs my memory. I'll let you know how it goes.:)
But a HUGE Thanks Again!

Happy reading, come back if you remember anymore about the second book. :)
Looking for a book with a forced amrraige or blackmail into marriage theme. the scene I most remember is that the h is caught in a storm on her way to see the hero and is soaking wet when theymeet in his office.
help to find.The h is engaged to her father's business partner, it will be moc. She is a virgin so she wants her first time to be with a man she really likes before the moc. The h meets the H and they have one night stand. After when she goes to her official engagement party she meets there the H again. It turns out the H seduced the h to get revenge on her fiance. I think there was some scene with driving in the rain or storm.

Does she have dyslexia and is a gardener or an interior designer? Plus does she have a rabbit as well as some other sisters? If yes, I think I know which one , but just need to find it.
Is it Roccanti's Marriage Revenge?
Vintage wrote: "Is it Roccanti's Marriage Revenge?"No, it's not the one but thank you! I found it. It's One Night to Risk It All
Please help me to find another one. The h is the rich H's mistress. They live together and one time they have a fight it turns out that the H had other mistresses at the same time. The h thought she was the only one but he kept visiting his other mistresses too.
I am trying to find a book where the h suffers from amnesia (not because of car accident). I remember that the H is her boss ...maybe. She once interrupts a meeting and accuses him of something bad like cheating. She still works at the same place as the hero but she doesn't remember that they had a relationship (or marriage idk). Then she faints there, the H knows she gets amnesia and takes care of her. However, at the same time, he arranges to do something to get his own back on her for the accusation...
I remember that there's a scene when she runs into the rain...
That's all I can remember. This is one of the first HPs I've read so every detail is kinda vague to me.
Please help me :)))

Huỳnh wrote: "I am trying to find a book where the h suffers from amnesia (not because of car accident). I remember that the H is her boss ...maybe.

I do know that it's highly rated by at least one of the following: StMargaret, Vintage, boogenhagen, or Ivy-h.
I'll have a look through their books and see if I can't find it again, because I was planning to read it myself!

Okay so I recently read reviews of a particular book, and now I can't remember the name, so I can't find it. Hope someone can help me out! Basically it's a second-chance story, I think - the hero wooed, married, and dumped the heroine a few years before the book begins. I think it was for revenge? Something about her grandfather's ships and HIS grandfather's ships. Anyway, now he wants her back - apparently he always loved her but had to do the wed, bed, dump thing because Reasons (possibly a deathbed promise to his grandad?)

YES!!! Thank you so much!
please help to find, The heroes have marriage of convenience. The H is a very jealous one. They have honeymoon on a yacht and the h meets a painter or just a random english guy on a beach. When the h returns to the yacht she doesn't tell the H about the guy. Later on the H finds out she has been meeting the other guy and gets very angry. I think he even rapes her.
There was one very awful novel that I've been trying to find in order to avoid the author forever. The H and h were married and going on a trip using a car. The h was pregnant and planning to tell the husband. Some criminals stopped them on the way, beat up the husband and raped the wife. The jerk (the husband) didn't believe she was already pregnant, called her a liar and left. months later after she gives birth they reunite some how and have an argument about her being raped that day, and that ass actually end up beating her up. Does this ring any bells?

I just started using the goodreads app and I totally had user error and originally posted this in a very wrong place. But I’m in the right place now, whew.I vaguely remember reading a Harlequin Presents with a heroine called Suki/Sukhy and that’s literally all I remember. I am 99% sure it was one of the ones with a white/red cover so not an 80s one.
Any ideas?

Hi Kristin,
There is one called Istri Simpanan Mistress Material by Sharon Kendrick that has a h called 'Suki'. Hope that is it for you.
That was the only one I could find as well and it’s definitely not that one.
Kristin wrote: "That was the only one I could find as well and it’s definitely not that one."The only other one I know is a Charlotte Lamb - The Girl from Nowhere.

I suspect it is the Girl from Nowhere but honestly thought it was newer than that. I was convinced it was one of those forced Greek marriages/business merger stories but I had no concrete reason for thinking that.
Thanks for all the suggestions!

Right, so this is getting ridiculous. I should just get the books when I read the reviews that make me want them, instead of hoping that I'll remember the name.Anyway, this one is a secretary/boss romance, where they've been having an affair strictly out of office hours for some time, but it's Valentine's day and she's hoping that he'll cop to having feels, instead of just copping a feel. And she gets flowers and thinks they're from him, until he sees them and demands to know WHO DARED to send her flowers. Also her horse died, her dad is leaving her mum because he wants to go back to farming, and her sister is a cow.
I'm hoping someone can help me out with a name here. Possibly I should invest in a notebook where I can write down the names of books I see on GR that I'd like to read.

Wow. All I saw was "her horse died"!
That's definitely the story I was looking for! Thanks!(I, too, am sad about the horse. I feel like it's unfair to have death in an HP, unless it's death of the deserving, such as evil grandfathers and crazy OWs. But they should especially steer clear of animal deaths)

No, that’s not it,
Please help too find this one. The h finds divorce papers and leaves the H before any explantion. I think he wanted divorce because he founds out she takes contraception pills. When they meet again the H blackmails the h and she has to have sex with him without the birth control pills.
