They pretended to be lovers.
But there’s nothing make-believe about the baby on the way.
When Joni Danielson recruits her best friend, Sweet Briar mayor Lex Devlin, to be her fake boyfriend for a wedding, it’s a no-brainer. But their staged kisses lead to real passion—and heartbreak when Lex pulls away. Now Joni’s in a bigger bind: she’s pregnant. Can she and Lex once again fake it till they make it—to a real relationship?
One night of temptation leads to more than they bargained for! With the next book in her Sweet Briar Sweethearts series, Kathy Douglass delights her reader with a return to Sweet Briar where small town living is personified. The characters are well-developed and intriguing, and the story line of an unexpected pregnancy between best friends is the shining star. Emotional, charming and oh so satisfying!
Joni Danielson had no idea that asking her best friend to pretend to be her boyfriend for a wedding she had to attend would turn their lives upside down. They’re back home and further apart than they’ve ever been because a few pretend kisses turned into real passion … passion he regretted the next morning. She’s keeping her distance and stewing in her hurt and anger … until she discovers she’s pregnant!
Mayor Lex Devlin adores Joni and just can’t understand why she’s so mad at him. Yes, he crossed a line he shouldn’t have, but shouldn’t they just be able to forget about it and continue their friendship? He’s tried love & marriage before and it just didn’t work out … but hearing they have a baby on the way has him wondering if he needs to give it another try.

ABOUT KATHY DOUGLASS
Kathy is a born reader who as a child always had her nose in a book. She went from reading Bobbsey Twins to romance novels. One day she stumbled upon The Shining by Stephen King and was hooked on horror. When she caught herself checking under the bed and looking in the closet for monsters, she knew it was time to put down the horror and return to romance novels.
Her return was short-lived. She started law school and soon her reading was limited to legal opinions. Then she discovered Harlequin romances. They were short enough to read in a week and she wouldn’t have to search her room before she went to sleep.
When her first child was born, she became a stay at home mom. Her second child soon followed, and reading was limited to children’s books.
All too soon her kids were attending pre-school. Kathy spent those hours renewing her relationship with romance novels. Soon she felt the urge to write the stories she wanted to read. In 2016, Kathy sold to Harlequin. Her first book, How to Steal the Lawman’s Heart, was released in February, 2017. Since then, she has released several more books with Harlequin.
