      From undercover lovers to happily-ever-after?

      Investigator Kathleen Winston’s task is clear: uncover the truth about the alleged safety violations at Kingsley Oil and Gas. But one look at ruggedly sexy VP Morgan Kingsley and her scrutiny transforms into seduction! Kathleen can’t deny their explosive chemistry during the workday...or the unbridled passion in his arms at night. But can the emotionally guarded bachelor forgive Kathleen once her identity and her heart are revealed?

      MARTHA KENNERSON’s love of reading and writing is a significant part of who she is, and she uses both to create the kinds of stories that touch your heart. Martha lives with her family in League City, Texas, and believes her current blessings are only matched by the struggle it took to achieve such happiness.

      Morgan slowly rose from his seat. “Excuse me.” His brows snapped together, and he came out from around his desk.

      Kathleen stood defiantly in front of him. “You asked me out, then, what...changed your mind or got a better offer?”

      Morgan was confused, but by the scowl on Kathleen’s face he knew she believed what she was saying.

      “And another thing, mister.” She used her right index finger and poked him in the chest. “You don’t say all those beautiful things to a woman and just kick her to the curb without an explanation.”

      Morgan grabbed her finger and held it at his heart. “I didn’t kick you to the curb, and I certainly didn’t blow you off. You said you were leaving early and doing something with your sister this weekend. I’d say you blew me off.”

      “No, I didn’t.” Kathleen stepped forward, closing the gap between them.

      Morgan watched Kathleen’s face morph from anger to confusion to desire. He could see how sincere she was, and he was overwhelmed with emotions. Morgan lowered his head and gently kissed her on the lips. Kathleen slid her hands up and around his neck, pressed her body against him and moaned his name into his mouth. Morgan deepened the kiss.

      Dear Reader,

      If you have read any of my books, you know how important it is that my stories come from a place of love, based in some truths, and showcase strong and sometimes unique family dynamics. I hope The Kingsleys of Texas hasn’t disappointed. So far, you have met three amazing men. Now it’s time to meet the final Texas Kingsley.

      In The Heiress’s Secret Romance, Kathleen Winston is a special agent for OSHA determined to bring down the Kingsleys for perceived malfeasance against their employees. Morgan Kingsley, the second eldest of the Kingsley brothers and a proud commitmentphobe, finds himself second-guessing his thoughts on the subject after spending time with Kathleen.

      I love interacting with my readers. Please let me know how you liked Morgan and Kathleen’s story. You can contact me on Facebook or Twitter, @kennersonbooks. I hope to bring you more exciting stories of fascinating families shortly.

      Until then,

      Martha

      I’d like to dedicate this story to all my faithful readers. If not for you I would have all these stories and characters stuck in my head with nowhere to go. Thank you for your continued support.
