MEET THE CRAWFORD FAMILY
Joe Crawford: Eldest son and reclusive bachelor. He believes no woman would have him, but he craves a family and will enter into a marriage of convenience if it means finally getting what he desires.
Anna Pointer: With two children to raise, this widow couldn’t refuse Joe’s proposal of marriage. But her secret desire for her husband could lead to heartache like she never imagined.
Pete Crawford: The happily married second son has plenty of advice to give his older brother…even if Joe doesn’t want to hear it.
Carol Crawford: This family matriarch just wants all of her children to settle down and be happy. She believes Joe’s marriage to Anna will bring him all the joy he deserves and she’ll stop at nothing to bring the two together.
Caleb Crawford: The head of the Crawford family is hiding some scandalous secrets from his own children. Find out what they are, in Hush, Judy Christenberry’s newest novel from Silhouette Books, available September 2003.
Dear Reader,
The summer after my thirteenth birthday, I read my older sister’s dog-eared copy of Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen E. Woodiwiss and I was hooked. Thousands of romance novels later—I won’t say how many years—I’ll gladly confess that I’m a romance freak! That’s why I am so delighted to become the associate senior editor for the Silhouette Romance line. My goal, as the new manager of Silhouette’s longest-running line, is to bring you brand-new, heartwarming love stories every month. As you read each one, I hope you’ll share the magic and experience love as it was meant to be.
For instance, if you love reading about rugged cowboys and the feisty heroines who melt their hearts, be sure not to miss Judy Christenberry’s Beauty & the Beastly Rancher (#1678), the latest title in her FROM THE CIRCLE K series. And share a laugh with the always-entertaining Terry Essig in Distracting Dad (#1679).
In the next THE TEXAS BROTHERHOOD title by Patricia Thayer, Jared’s Texas Homecoming (#1680), a drifter’s life changes for good when he offers to marry his nephew’s mother. And a secretary’s dream comes true when her boss, who has amnesia, thinks they’re married, in Judith McWilliams’s Did You Say… Wife? (#1681).
Don’t miss the savvy nanny who moves in on a single dad, in Married in a Month (#1682) by Linda Goodnight, or the doctor who learns his ex’s little secret, in Dad Today, Groom Tomorrow (#1683) by Holly Jacobs.
Enjoy!

Joe Crawford shoved back his straw cowboy hat and wiped his forehead with his handkerchief. He’d been on the tractor for more than an hour, plowing the small pasture to prepare it for the alfalfa he intended to plant there.
The field wasn’t large, but he hated to let anything go to waste. He could make enough to feed the herd for a month by taking the time
