Book #2—THE PLAYBOY’S OWN MISS PRIM The Playboy is a daddy! Wild horses couldn’t get wealthy horse breeder Ethan Callahan to settle down…but a bundle of baby could. Especially when the child was his—and was hand delivered by the preacher’s daughter! Good thing a full-grown woman came with the baby, because while Ethan was renowned for his know-how with females, he knew next to nothing about kids. Dora Watkins had specific instructions from her sweet charge’s mama to make certain Ethan would change his ways to care for his own.

Eden had only six months to make a baby or forever hold her peace. Stony was just the man for the job. A gentle giant if there ever was one, he embodied all of the good qualities Eden hoped to pass on to her child—and possessed all of the male sex appeal a woman could want. Taking Eden to bed would be Stony’s pleasure, but he wouldn’t do it without taking her down the aisle first. “Stony Stratton is a hero who would make it onto any woman’s wish list . . . Mindy Neff masterfully blends humor with a romance that will melt your heart.
