To Julie Henke, who flew all the way from St. Louis to Orlando to meet me at a book signing.
Wonderful readers like you are why I do what I do.
What would you do if you had a one-night stand with the man you secretly loved and then found yourself unexpectedly pregnant? You’d tell him, right? But what if, afterwards, that man was so cold and cruel you vowed to raise the baby alone—even though he was a billionaire?
For a year, hotel maid Hallie Hatfield has secretly loved her boss, Cristiano Moretti. When he seduces her it’s like a blissful dream—until he tosses her out at midnight and has her fired!
Desperate and pregnant, Hallie is lucky enough to meet two friends at a New York City single moms’ group. The three women are very different. Hallie cares most about family. Tess cares about love. Lola cares about money. But they all have one thing in common: they’ve never told any of the powerful billionaire fathers about their babies.
The Secret the Italian Claims is Hallie’s story. Tess’s story follows in The Heir the Prince Secures. The trilogy will finish with Lola’s story, The Baby the Billionaire Demands.
I loved writing these stories about three vibrant women and the untameable men who finally meet their match. I hope you love them too.
With warmest wishes,
Jennie
