This former cowboy’s planned his future, then love gets in the way!

Holden Monroe is focused on sending his son off to college until ex-girlfriend Bernadette Carlisle drops the bomb that she’s expecting their baby.

What did you like best about writing this series?

When I began the series for Harlequin, I had Bridgerton in mind. I’ve always loved the series by Julia Quinn. Unlike her series, I have plot threads pulling things through. For example, in the first few books, there’s a myth about a stagecoach robber and hidden gold. In the next few books, there’s trouble because a twin switch led to secret babies with a movie star dad. And then we enter a revitalization of the town with efforts focusing on new business ventures. The last few books deal with the over-arching plot of the family’s involvement with the town moving forward. The twelve books take place over the course of a year.

What other books (not in this series, have you written?)

I have a small town matchmaker series with Forever Romance (Sunshine Valley). And I write a rom-com series (The Kissing Test). Plus I’m part of a multi-author series set in fictional Christmas Town, Maine (all authors write for Harlequin Heartwarming).

Where can we find links for all your books?

I just launched a Welcome page on my website that describes a little about each series.

Melinda Curtis Social Media

Prior to writing romance, award-winning, USA Today Bestseller Melinda Curtis was a junior manager for a Fortune 500 company, which meant when she flew on the private jet she was relegated to the jump seat—otherwise known as the potty. After grabbing her pen (and a parachute) she made the jump to full-time writer. A hybrid author, Melinda has over 60 titles published or sold, including 40 works to Harlequin, five to Grand Central Forever and two to Arc Manor, mostly sweet romance and sweet romantic comedies. One of her Harlequin books – Dandelion Wishes – was made into a 2020 TV movie – Love in Harmony Valley. She recently came to grips with the fact that she’s an empty nester and a grandma, concepts easier to grasp than movies made from her books or jet-setting on a potty.
