A Broward baby bump?
A Broward—and a world-class athlete, no less—unmarried and expecting? Laney Broward is amazed she has kept her pregnancy a secret this long. Now headlines are blaring from the tabloids that she is in the family way. She can’t believe that one impulsive, out-of-character night could have such lasting repercussions….
The news that he’s a soon-to-be father stops millionaire heartbreaker Austin Johns in his tracks. This internationally known horse breeder never planned to become a parent, but he is warming to the idea of his own family. Laney can talk all she wants about her independence; they now have a bond that cannot be broken. Austin will stop at nothing to ensure his place in his child’s life—and he will not rest until he finds his way back to Laney’s loving arms….
Austin certainly had Laney’s attention as he sauntered toward her.
Tux unbuttoned, black bow tie gone and black Stetson on. He stopped only a few feet away, and in the stable’s dim halo of yellowish light, his expression was unreadable, yet tantalizing.
“I’ve been wanting to talk to you all night.”
She touched her hair, styled into an elegant updo for the party, as his rich tenor swirled over her.
“Talk to me? About what?”
His eyes swaggered over her from head to toe, lingering here and there in places that caused her skin to warm.
“Your choice of attire for the gala,” he stated matter-of-factly.
Not sure if Austin was teasing or not, Laney met his gaze head-on. “What’s wrong with it?” she blurted out.
Austin shook his head. “It’s different from your usual T-shirt and jeans,” he stated, without a hint of a smile. “And on you, that gown is far too stunning to ignore.”

Dear Reader,
There’s something about wide-open spaces and small towns that inspire romance. Throw a superrich family, a surprise pregnancy and blackmail into the mix and you have all the fixings for a juicy scandal.
Equestrian Laney Broward is still basking in the glow of her gold medal win when millionaire horse breeder Austin Johns surprises her with a passionate New Year’s Eve kiss that turns into an all-night lovemaking session. When Laney becomes pregnant, she fears the stigma of being a single mom, and worries about disappointing the entire Broward family and losing her independence.
Austin Johns isn’t used to being tied down to anyone or anything except his prizewinning thoroughbreds. Now that he’s going to be a daddy, he’s willing to happily take on the responsibility. But will Laney let him?
Loving Laney, the third novel in the Browards of Montana series, is a story you will never forget.
Be blessed,
Harmony Evans
