y separately published work icon The Montana Son California : Tule Publishing , 2015 9928956 2015 single work novel romance

'A birthday card out of the blue from his estranged father sends successful Seattle marketing man Alex Chernoff on a detour to Sweetheart, Montana in search of answers about his past. A day, maybe two, to tie up loose strings and he’ll be out of there, heading for Mexico, margaritas and blondes in bikinis.

'Emma Stanhope is all too familiar with hot, rich, entitled guys like Alex. They never hang around for long, especially not for a Plain Jane like herself. No problem. She’s smart and logical, like any good scientist, and knows better than to lose her heart.

'What Emma doesn’t count on is chemistry—of the romantic kind. What Alex doesn’t count on is meeting the girl who’ll make him want to change his ways. But when he learns that he’s a secret from his father’s real family, he can’t stay in Sweetheart… even if he wants to.

'Will love be enough to convince Alex to stay… for good?'

Does he have it in his heart to do it again? Fire chief Nick Dalton has a lot on his plate. He's had to move to a small town in Washington to get his twelve-going-on-twenty-year-old daughter away from the rough crowd she was hanging with in Los Angeles. He's also struggling with the knowledge his late wife imparted on her deathbed - their child might not be his biologically. Erin Hanson has returned to the small town she grew up in to come to terms with a failed romance, and Nick is just the kind of man to make her quickly forget her woes. But suddenly she has a more wrenching situation on her hands - she's pregnant with her ex-fiance's child. Erin knows Nick loves her. Now they both have to find out if he can love her baby, too. - back cover (Chatswood, 2002)
