BARONESSA GELATERIA
in Boston’s North End
In addition to our regular flavors of gelato, this month we are featuring:
Vanilla pudding with melted caramel
All it took was one deep look into Phoebe’s warm amber eyes and a brief taste of her vanilla-flavored lips to rock Daniel Barone’s world. Women usually wanted to catch him, snag him, tame him. Not Phoebe. And suddenly Daniel knew he was in trouble. Big trouble…
Handmade pastries
With his poster-perfect face and sculpted body, Daniel Barone was handmade by the gods. From the first moment she saw him, Phoebe couldn’t help but stare. He made her blush, made her nervous—made her feel like a woman….
Boston cream pie with imported Italian chocolate
Phoebe and Daniel were as opposite as two people could be. But they shared a powerful, passionate attraction that wouldn’t be denied, no matter how they tried. Indulging was never an option; they had to have each other—if only for one short, steaming-hot Boston summer. But what a summer!
Buon appetito!
Dear Reader,
When it comes to passion, Silhouette Desire has exactly what you need. This month’s offerings include Cindy Gerard’s The Librarian’s Passionate Knight, the next installment of DYNASTIES: THE BARONES. A naive librarian gets swept off her feet by a dashing Barone sibling—who could ask for anything more? But more we do have, with another story about attractive and wealthy men, from Anne Marie Winston. Billionaire Bachelors: Gray is a deeply compelling story about a man who gets a second chance at life—and maybe the love of a lifetime.
Sheri WhiteFeather is back this month with the final story in our LONE STAR COUNTRY CLUB trilogy. The Heart of a Stranger will leave you breathless when a man with a sordid past gets a chance for ultimate redemption. Launching a new series this month is Kathie DeNosky with Lonetree Ranchers: Brant. When a handsome rancher helps a damsel in distress, all his defenses come crashing down and the fun begins.
Silhouette Desire is pleased to welcome two brand-new authors. Nalini Singh’s Desert Warrior is an intense, emotional read with an alpha hero to die for. And Anna DePalo’s Having the Tycoon’s Baby, part of our ongoing series THE BABY BANK, is a sexy romp about one woman’s need for a child and the sexy man who grants her wish—but at a surprising price.
There’s plenty of passion rising up here in Silhouette Desire this month. So dive right in and enjoy.

Who’s Who in
THE LIBRARIAN’S PASSIONATE KNIGHT
Daniel Barone–All around the world, he dared to do what most mortals feared, and his exploits were the stuff of legends. But what Daniel did best was leave. No matter the place, no matter the thrill, he always left. Why, then, did one irresistible librarian make him want to stay?
Phoebe Richards—Having lived in Boston all her life with her cat, friends and books, she’s a maiden—not old maid—librarian. But she’s happy, comfortable. Why, then, did one footloose jet-setter—albeit a gorgeous, sexy footloose jet-setter—make her want so much more?
Karen Rawlins—She has just discovered that she’s a long-lost cousin to the Barones. But where will this loner fit in to the overwhelming first family of Boston?
