About this ebook
A mission to seduce
It was four years since Jessica had last seen Mitch, yet she'd never forgotten or forgiven his heartless treachery.
Now, blackmailed by her boss, and in the name of "business", Jessica was forced to confront Mitch again and pretend that the attraction between them burned as fiercely as ever! Pretending to fall in love with Mitch was dangerously easy dangerous for two reasons:
1) He might break her heart again.
2) He might discover that he, Mitch Carradine, confirmed bachelor, was the father of her son!
"Grace Green generates an unbeatable emotional intensity." Romantic Times
Grace Green
Grace was born in the Highlands of Scotland, and grew up on a farm in the Scottish northeast. As an eleven year old, she earned her very first paycheck by gathering potatoes during the school holidays - "tattie-howking" as it was locally known; back-breaking work as it was generally acknowledged! Then, earnings in hand, she cycled to Elgin, a nearby town, and with the precious pound bought a shiny black Waterman fountain pen. Grace had always loved writing, and with the treasured pen she continued to write...diaries, letters, and poetry...and fan mail to faraway movie stars living at, what seemed to be, a very romantic address: Culver City, California. Little did she dream that just over two decades later, she would move to North America with husband and children and eventually settle in Vancouver. It was there that she began to write novels...and all because of a newspaper article she read, about a popular Harlequin romance author. Until then, Grace had always believed writers to be extraordinary people, who lived in ivory towers, and she had considered it would be presumptuous for any ordinary person to aspire to become one. But the author in the article appeared much like herself... a housewife, a mother, and Scottish to boot. So should she give it a shot? Having always enjoyed writing and always enjoyed a challenge, Grace decided she would. And after a five-year period of hard work and several rejections - which she likes to think of as a five-year apprenticeship - she finally made the first of many sales. Since her childhood days, Grace has graduated from laboriously writing copperplate with her Waterman pen, to clattering the keys of an ancient Olivetti typewriter, to typing on a second-hand IBM Selectric, to using a computer, as she now does. But no matter the tool, her attention remains firmly focused on the writing itself, and the spinning of emotional, family-oriented love stories that come from her heart.

Reviews for Trouble In Paradise
3 ratings1 review
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Trouble was what she was in when Ellie Fitzsimmons realized that she was being fired from her job as a serving girl because she was pregnant. With no where to go and no family to rely on, she made the dramatic decision to use her new pen pal as an excuse to move from New York to Nebraska. Receiving a letter about the impending arrival of the lady that had been corresponding with him, Parker McMillan had to inform his brother Roy about their houseguest. As confirmed bachelors, the McMillan brothers was unsure how that would work out, having a women under foot. Being the skeptic that he was, Roy was suspicious of her motives from the beginning, but after meeting her he soon realized that a women’s scheming weren’t the only way they could disrupt the routine of his life. With the return of his mother after so many years, there was not a McMillan man in the county that would be safe.Characters that are easy to get into and to understand. Great regional descriptions of the town of Paradise and the surrounding area. Typical - she lied and wondered if she could ever make it up to him - type of story. Several touching moments, a little bit of humor, a questionable love scene and a scary house fire later, Roy has to decide what to do next, if his brother doesn’t beat him to it, or the ranch hand for that matter.
