Thank you for picking up a copy of His Pregnant Royal Bride.

I was privileged to write this duet with one of my absolute favorite people, Robin Gianna. When our editor asked if I wanted to write a duet with her for my fourteenth book for Mills & Boon Medical Romance I answered with a resounding yes !

The best part of writing this duet was when Robin, me and our editor were all at the RWA Nationals conference in San Diego and we got to hash out the timeline and plot soaking in the sun by the pool. Those kinds of editorial meetings don’t happen very often!

Nurse practitioner Shay Labadie has had a pretty rough hand in life, but it doesn’t deter her from doing work all over the world, bringing medicine to those in need. She’s quite admirable, and her first name is for a friend whom I also find admirable.

Dr Dante Affini has also been dealt several blows, but has led more of a charmed life being an Italian prince. Though he thinks it’s far from charming—and after a one-night stand leaves Shay with a baby she thinks he’s her Prince Charming either.

I hope you enjoy Shay and Dante’s story.

This book is dedicated to Robin, my partner in crime for this duet. You were awesome, and I would work with you again in a heartbeat. I’m so glad we got to meet face-to-face finally !

For my friend Shay, who is just as giving and admirable as my heroine. You do so much and ask for nothing. So glad we’re friends.

And of course Laura, my editor extraordinaire, who concocted this idea. Also for Tilda, who always helps out with my AFS and keywords and for stepping in while the rest of us were in California.
