Sweet story

The relationship between the leads in Catherine Mann's novel Millionaire in Command is logical and passionate, usually these two traits don't go together in a romantic duo but they aptly describe this couple. Phoebe Slater is a college history professor who has been taking care of her friend's baby. She loves little Nina but Nina's mother has been gone for over two months and Phoebe cannot find her. Phoebe is concerned that social services will take away Nina and put her in foster care so she finds Nina's father Kyle Landis and offers a solution; they can marry and she can keep Nina. Kyle had no idea he had a child so he is quite literally stunned when Phoebes show up at his swanky party with a baby in tow. Kyle is as honorable as Phoebe so when he realizes Nina is his child he is more than willing to marry Phoebe for Nina's sake. Right away I liked these characters. They don't go into theatrics over a situation and both are quick to see the importance of doing what is best for the baby. Phoebe is a widow who truly loved her husband but Kyle reminds her that life does move forward. Kyle is a lady's man but when it comes to settling down with he is more than willing to change his ways. What begins as a modern day marriage of convenience quickly turns into a whole lot more with this duo.

Another Delightful story

At his welcome home gale he is shocked to find out he may be a dad. Seems this beautiful woman in front of him is saying the daughter she has been caring for a friend is his child. Kyle is floored when Phoebe Slater suggests marriage between them to keep little Nina out of foster care. History Professor Phoebe Slater doesn't mind taking care of baby Nina. But Nina's mom has been gone for months and Phoebe is worried child protective services will be knocking on her door any day now. She proposes a marriage of convenience to the baby's father to buy her some time to locate the mother. Kyle and Phoebe both enter into this marriage with good intentions. Neither was planning on being so attracted to each other. Once they give into their desires all bets are off. Now that the relationship is real will it hold up when Nina's birth mother shows up? Millionaire In Command is a real treat. You have you top notch military man and a strong capable woman, what more could you ask for in a romance. The dialogue is witty and the chemistry is spicy. Catherine Mann's stories are always a first pick for me.
