Mills & Boon Heart — Stories of love, compassion and happiness.
More Than A Temporary Family - Marie Ferrarella
A visit with family in Spring Forest, North Carolina, was just what Josie Whitaker needed to put her marriage behind her. Horseback riding lessons were an added bonus. But her instructor, Declan Hoyt, was somewhat distracted dealing with his moody teenaged niece. The divorced single mum knew just how to help and offered to teach Declan a thing or two about parenting — never expecting a romance to spark with the younger rancher! Dare Josie take the reins on this exciting new adventure?
Heir To The Ranch - Melissa Senate
The more Gavin Dawson shirks his new role, the more irate Lily Gold gets. The very pregnant single mum-to-be is determined to make her new boss see the value in his late father’s legacy — even more so because her livelihood, and her home, depend on it! But Gavin’s plan to ignore his inheritance, and Lily — and his growing attraction to her — is impossible. Then her newborn baby arrives on the scene, raising the emotional stakes even more…
An Unexpected Cowboy - Shannon Stacey
Lone wolf cowboy Irish is no stranger to long, lonely nights. Some might say he even prefers it that way. But somehow Mallory Sutton tugs on his heartstrings. The feisty single mum is struggling to balance it all — and challenging Irish’s perception of what he has to offer. She shows the guarded cowboy everything a family — and real love — can be. But will their unexpected connection keep Irish in town…or end in heartbreak for Mallory and her kids?
The Mayor’s Baby Surprise - Anna J. Stewart
Ineffective, shortsighted and self-centred — that’s what top family lawyer Leah Ellis thinks of Gil Hamilton. And that’s why she’s vying for his position as mayor of Butterfly Harbor. But when a six-month-old baby is left on Gil’s doorstep, he turns to her for help. Gil’s dedication to baby Eli shows Leah she was wrong about her rival. But can he win her vote for a future together?
Their Together Promise - M.K. Stelmack
Mara Montgomery insists she does not need a guide dog despite her vision loss. But charming dog trainer Connor Flanagan’s plan is one that even Mara can’t resist, though it means she’ll be around Connor more. It would be too easy for Mara to fall for both him and his dogs. But will Connor still want her when he realises she can’t — or won’t — give him all that he deserves?
A Deputy in Amish Country - Patricia Johns
When Annabelle Richards needs someone to keep her safe until she’s able to testify, Deputy Conrad Westhouse volunteers to protect her at his family’s ranch, deep in Amish country. Watching Annabelle charm his neighbours and dream of starting over in the Ohio countryside tugs at Conrad’s heart…even though keeping his emotions locked down is the only way to protect the woman he’s starting to care about.

aka Marie Charles, Marie Michael, Marie Nicole, Marie Ferrarella
Marie Rydzynski was born on March 28 in West Germany to Polish parents. She moved to America at the age of four. For an entire year, Marie and her family explored the eastern half of the country before finally settling in New York.
Marie swears she was born writing, "which must have made the delivery especially hard for my mother." From an early age, Marie's parents would find her watching television or tucked away in some private place, writing at a furious pace. "Initially, I began writing myself into my favourite shows. I was a detective on '77 Sunset Strip,' the missing Cartwright sibling they never talked about on 'Bonanza' and the 'Girl from U.N.C.L.E.' before there was a 'Girl from U.N.C.L.E.,' not to mention an active participant in the serialized stories of 'The Mickey Mouse Club.'" Marie began to write her first romance novel when she was 11 years old, although she claims that, at the time, she didn't even realize it was a romance! She scribbled off and on, while dreaming of a career as an actress.
Marie was only 14 when she first laid eyes on the man she would marry, truly her first love, Charles Ferrarella. During her days at Queens College, New York, acting started to lose its glamour as Marie spent more and more time writing. After receiving her English degree, specialising in Shakespearean comedy, Marie and her family moved to Southern California, where she still resides today.
After an interminable seven weeks apart, Charles decided he couldn't live without her and came out to California to marry his childhood sweetheart. Ever practical, Marie was married in a wash-and-wear wedding dress that she sewed herself, appliqués and all. "'Be prepared' has always been my motto,"the author jokes. This motto has been stretched considerably by her two children, Nikky and Jessi, "but basically, it still applies," she says.
In November of 1981, she sold her first novel for Harlequin. Marie, who now has written over 150 novels, has one goal: to entertain, to make people laugh and feel good. "That's what makes me happy," she confesses. "That, and a really good romantic evening with my husband." She's keeping her fingers crossed that her reader's enjoy reading her books as much as she enjoyed writing them.
