Dear Reader,
As always, Intimate Moments offers you six terrific books to fill your reading time, starting with Terese Ramin’s Her Guardian Agent. For FBI agent Hazel Youvella, the case that took her back to revisit her Native American roots was a very personal one. For not only did she find the hero of her heart in Native American tracker Guy Levoie, she discovered the truth about the missing child she was seeking. This wasn’t just any child—this was her child.
If you enjoyed last month’s introduction to our FIRSTBORN SONS in-line continuity, you won’t want to miss the second installment. Carla Cassidy’s Born of Passion will grip you from the first page and leave you longing for the rest of these wonderful linked books. Valerie Parv takes a side trip from Silhouette Romance to debut in Intimate Moments with a stunner of a reunion romance called Interrupted Lullaby. Karen Templeton begins a new miniseries called HOW TO MARRY A MONARCH with Plain-Jane Princess, and Linda Winstead Jones returns with Hot on His Trail, a book you should be hot on the trail of yourself. Finally, welcome Sharon Mignerey back and take a look at her newest, Too Close for Comfort.
And don’t forget to look in the back of this book to see how Silhouette can make you a star.
Enjoy them all, and come back next month for more of the best and most exciting romance reading around.
Yours,
Leslie J. Wainger

Born of Passion
Carla Cassidy
Bound by the legacy of their fathers, six Firstborn Sons are about to discover the stuff true heroes—and true love—are made of….
Kyle Ramsey: When he returns to Montebello on a covert mission, this blatantly masculine Firstborn Son reunites with the exotic beauty he’d shared a night of passion with. Can this restless top-gun pilot reclaim the mother of his child?
Joanna Morgan: Out of self-preservation, this headstrong military attaché has been keeping a precious secret from her globe-trotting lover. For she yearns for the one thing an adventure-seeking Kyle can never give her—a place to call home.
Major Edward Ramsey: Though he’s raised his boys to be all they can be, his rebellious Firstborn Son will be the one to follow in his footsteps….
King Marcus: His kindness and compassion are legendary. But this formidable ruler’s kid gloves come off when his country and his kingdom are threatened!
Prince Lucas Sebastiani and Sheik Rashid Kamal: To the dismay of their families, these royal heirs are still missing in action….
A note from prolific author Carla Cassidy:
Dear Reader,
I was thrilled when I was asked to participate in another one of Silhouette’s exciting continuity series. This one, FIRSTBORN SONS, was especially fun, because it deals with a powerful covert organization, handsome, daring men of action, and women strong enough to love those men.
Born of Passion begins with a one-night stand that my hero, Kyle Ramsey, can’t forget and my heroine, Joanna Morgan, desperately wants to forget. One delicious, unforgettable night that stirs in these two strong people a passion that will make them fight the odds to find a lasting, forever kind of love.
I have been writing for Silhouette for the past nine years, and in that time have written over fifty books. I’ve been a Romance Writers of America RITA Award finalist and have won a variety of awards from Romantic Times Magazine.
I hope you enjoy reading Born of Passion as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Intoxicating.
Kyle Ramsey drew a deep breath, discerning the tang of lemon, delicate citrus blossoms and exotic spices among the many fragrances that rode the warm air that surrounded him.
Montebello. The sounds and smells of the Mediterranean island seemed to welcome him back as he grabbed his duffel bag and hopped into a taxi.
“The U.S. Embassy,” he said to the driver, then settled back in the seat.
It had been three months since he’d been here, and while on the surface Montebello showed no change, Kyle knew there had been changes…changes that threatened the fiber, the very heart, of the beautiful island.
He brushed at a tiny piece of lint on the sleeve of his naval uniform. He’d flown on a transport plane to Montebello and could have taken military transport to the embassy. But he’d opted for a taxi instead, needing time alone to think and to prepare himself for whatever responsibility lay ahead.
His commanding officer had been vague about Kyle’s exact mission when he’d given him the orders to return to Montebello. He’d simply explained that the ambassador in Montebello would fill Kyle in when he arrived.
“You’ve come to the prettiest island in the world,” the cabbie said, his dark eyes looking at Kyle through the rearview mirror.
