      THE ENGAGEMENT ARRANGEMENT

      After his divorce, cowboy turned Navy SEAL Wayne Brustanovitch swore he’d never remarry. Now he needs a wife—and fast—in order to fulfill his ailing father’s final wishes. Wayne has a plan, but for it to work, he’ll need his pregnant friend Paisley to agree to...

      A make-believe marriage! Paisley Carter knows her hunky neighbor’s idea is a bad one, even if it’s for a good reason. Then again, after her ex left her pregnant and alone, a no-risk relationship is the only kind Paisley wants. But as she and Wayne play pretend at his parents’ Arizona ranch, the line between the ruse and reality begins to blur. Can Wayne and Paisley resist falling for each other for real?

      LAURA MARIE ALTOM is a bestselling and award-winning author who has penned nearly fifty books. After college (go, Hogs!), Laura Marie did a brief stint as an interior designer before becoming a stay-at-home mom to boy-girl twins and a bonus son. Always an avid romance reader, she knew it was time to try her hand at writing when she found herself replotting the afternoon soaps.

      When not immersed in her next story, Laura plays video games, tackles Mount Laundry and, of course, reads romance!

      “It really is a half-baked plan, but...”

      Wayne worked past the knot in his throat that hardened every time he thought of a world without his father. “If we can pull this off and bring my dad comfort in the last weeks of his life, it could be worth it.”

      “When you put it that way...” Paisley wiped her tears with the backs of her hands. “Maybe we should throw caution to the wind and go for it?”

      “You think?” Relief and the thought of doing something—anything—proactive toward helping his dad made his pulse race.

      “For the record, you have to know this could end in disaster.”

      “True.”

      “Just give me a couple days to wrap my head around the logistics.”

      “Deal.” He stood, then crossed the short distance between them to shake her hand. When their hands touched, was it his imagination, or was there a spark that had never been there before?

      Not cool. Sparks were the last thing he needed.

      Dear Reader,

      At the time I’m writing this, the US has just witnessed the heartbreaking devastation of hurricanes Harvey and Irma. What an awful pair, right? In Oklahoma, we’ve had a lovely start to our autumn. Warm, sunny days and cool nights—pleasant enough to make it inconceivable how much damage is taking place in other parts of the country.

      My thoughts and prayers go out to all who were affected by these terrible storms. Hope your lives soon get back to normal. In a few weeks, I’m traveling to Florida for a long-planned conference and I dread seeing homes and businesses that didn’t fare so well.

      In Wayne and Paisley’s story, they’re both dealing with the kind of pain that can’t be fixed with a hammer and nails or fresh coat of paint. Wayne has learned his father is dying of cancer, and oddly enough, his best friend and very pregnant neighbor, Paisley, is the only one who can help. To find out how, you’ll have to dive into their story.

      Happy reading!

      Laura Marie

      For my mom, Louise. I love you. xoxo
