Friday Freebie: Carrying the Greek's Heir by Sharon Kendrick

I adore the Harlequin Romances from Harlequin though I've not read many of their Presents line. Thought I'd add this one in for today's Friday Freebie since it's not often that I see a Harlequin romance for free. Plus, I'm sure there are lots of people who love category romances as much as I do. I hope you enjoy!


One Night of SinTitle: Carrying the Greek's Heir
Author: Sharon Kendrick
Publisher: Harlequin Presents
Publish date: 1 April 2012
Length: 186 pages
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Purchase link: Amazon

Pregnant with the billionaire's baby!

From the moment hardworking Ellie Brooks met mogul Alekto Sarantos her life has gone off the rails. First she was fired. Now she's pregnant with the ruthless Greek's baby!

It was only supposed to be one wild, passionate night. Yet when Ellie shows up demanding Alekto legitimize their unborn child he shocks himself…and agrees to her outrageous request!

Catapulted into a world she wasn't meant for, with a husband she shouldn't desire, Ellie's resolve wavers. Until a tiny kick from within reminds her why she made a deal with this handsome devil: her baby, his heir…

Look out for the start of Sharon Kendrick's fabulous new duet, The Bond of Billionaires, CLAIMED FOR MAKAROV'S BABY, on sale October 2015 concluding with THE SHEIKH'S CHRISTMAS CONQUEST in November 2015.

About the author

auI was told off as a child for making up stories—little did I know that one day I’d earn my living by writing them!

To the horror of my parents, I left school at sixteen and held a bewildering variety of jobs: I was a London DJ (in the now-trendy Primrose Hill), a decorator and a singer. After that I became a cook, a photographer and, eventually, a nurse. I waitressed in the south of France, drove an ambulance in Australia, saw lots of beautiful sights but could never settle down. Everywhere I went I felt like a square peg—until one day I started writing again and then everything just fell into place. I felt like Cinderella must have when the glass slipper fit!

Today, I have the best job in the world, writing passionate romances for Harlequin. I like writing stories which are sexy and fast-paced, yet packed full of emotion—stories that readers will identify with, laugh and cry along with.

My interests are many and varied—chocolate and music, fresh flowers and bubble baths, films, cooking and trying to keep my home from looking burglarized! Simple pleasures—you can’t beat them!

I live in Winchester, one of the most stunning cities in the world, but don’t take my word for it—come see for yourself! I regularly visit London and Paris. Oh, and I love hearing from my readers all over the world…so I think it’s over to you!

New Release: From Paradise... to Pregnant! by Kandy Shepherd

I'm super excited to welcome Kandy to the blog today with her new release from Harlequin Romance. The Harlequin Romance imprint is one of my favorite lines from Harlequin to read as they are warm, romantic and focused solely on the couple and their relationship. It gives me the warm fuzzies every time I pick one up to read. When I'm in the mood for something romantic, heartwarming and comforting, it is a Harlequin Romance that I reach for, and Kandy is one of the authors who fit the bill for me. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

From Paradise...to Pregnant!
By: Kandy Shepherd
Releasing June 2, 2015
Harlequin Romance

Buy Links:  Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Kobo


Synopsis


One night with consequences…

A week in Bali was accountant Zoe Summers’s dream vacation. But when the tropical island paradise is hit by an earthquake, she’s trapped—alongside Mitch Bailey, sports star and blast from her past! High on the thrill of survival, they seek comfort in each other’s arms…

It was only supposed to be one night, but Zoe soon discovers an unexpected souvenir—she’s pregnant! Now Zoe and Mitch will have to ask themselves…can one night lead to parenthood and a lifetime of love?



Excerpt

    “Had he grown taller since she’d last stood so near to him? They were both in their bare feet. He seemed to stand about six-foot-one to her five-foot-five.
    Six-foot-one of total hotness.
    Mitch was an elite sportsman in his prime, and he had celebrity status with as many fans as any actor or musician.
    Her proximity to his bare chest was doing nothing to slow down her revved-up heartbeat. If she’d had a T-shirt big enough to stretch over all those muscles, she would have offered to lend it to him. But wouldn’t it be a crime to cover that expanse of buff body?
    She wanted to take a step back, but didn’t want to signal how disconcerted she felt by said buff body being so close to her. Instead she stood her ground and forced her voice to sound controlled and conversational.
    ‘So this region sometimes gets harmless tremors? That didn’t stop it from being frightening, though, did it?’ she said. ‘I huddled under the massage table, making all sorts of bargains with myself about what I’d do if I got out safely.’
    ‘What kind of bargains?’ he asked.
    ‘Spend more time with friends and less at work. Give more to charity.’ She shrugged. ‘Stuff that wouldn’t interest you.’
    His eyes were as green as she remembered them, and now they looked intently into hers. ‘How do you know they wouldn’t interest me?’ he said, in a voice that seemed to have got an octave deeper.
    A shiver of awareness tingled through her. Sexiest man alive, all right.”
