BARBARA WHITE DAILLE (Cont.) ONE WEEK TO WIN HER BOSS BLURB EXCERPT When Amber is temporarily forced from her apart- ment, her only option is to stay at her boss‟s private lodge, where she‟s the housekeeper. A stormy family re- union leaves Michael seeking the solitude of his lodge, where he finds Amber in residence—and in trouble. At- tempting to save her from her matchmaking family, he announces they‟re a couple. His good deed backfires when they‟re instantly included in every holiday event in town. So much for solitude. Penny let out her I‟m-ready-to-eat screech. Michael‟s suddenly blank expression proved he had heard the baby, too, and wasn‟t pleased. But wait—there’s more. Penny‟s hunger cries were loud enough. How would he handle her being colicky? “What was that?” he demanded. “Not what. Who. My daughter.” Michael had never met Penny. In fact, he hadn‟t known about Amber‟s preg- nancy until she was so far along he couldn‟t miss the baby bump. “Ah,” he said. “When it comes to not making a peep, it doesn‟t look like you were speaking for your daughter.” She smiled sheepishly. “Sometimes she likes to speak for herself.” He shook his head, but his mouth curved up at one corner. He was fighting a smile. Even in the midst of this disaster, even with the recent reminder that she couldn‟t and shouldn‟t trust her judgment around men, that half- smile was enough to make her melt.
