Ragged Rainbows
by Janice Kay Johnson, Linda Lael Miller

Ragged Rainbows by Linda Lael Miller (originally published July 1986 in Silhouette Special Edition #324)

WOULD IT BE BETRAYAL IF SHE NEVER KNEW?

Mitch Prescott was Shay Kendall's savior. He'd bought her mother's mansion on the Washington coast, a financial albatross that Shay couldn't handle. And now he offered her true financial independence---a dream as seductive as Mitch himself. All she had to do was help him write an exposé on her mother, a former Hollywood star.

It felt disloyal, even though her mother would never know the difference. Once a legend, Rosamond now wasted away in a long-term care facility, clutching a doll she thought was her baby. It would be painful, recalling her mother's fickle love and the worst moments of Shay's life. But it could be the one thing that finally allowed Shay to move forward. And find her own love.

Includes Bonus book: The Miracle Baby by Janice Kay Johnson (originally published April 1997 in Harlequin SuperRomance #736)

If having a baby with a stranger is what it'll take to save her daughter's life...Beth McCabe is willing to have one.

Is the stranger?

Nate McCabe hasn't seen or spoken to his identical twin brother, Rob, for fifteen years. Now Rob is dead and Nate learns that Rob's widow, Beth, and her young daughter, Mandy, need him---but only because he's Rob's twin. Only because they need a miracle.

Mandy will die without a bone-marrow transplant. When Nate's tissue fails to match, Beth persuades him to step into his brother's shoes and father a baby---Beth's baby---a child who has a one-in-four chance of saving Mandy's life.

Nate learns to love Mandy and her beautiful mother---to say nothing of his future child. But when Beth looks into Nate's eyes and tells him she loves him, who is she seeing? Nate? Or the mirror image of Rob?



Janice Kay Johnson's Bio

The author of 38 published or forthcoming books for children and adults, Janice is a former librarian who now lives north of Seattle, Washington, with her two teenaged daughters (who, deeply in disguise, often appear in her books!). When she's not chauffeuring them to play rehearsals or piano lessons, she writes, quilts, gardens and is an active volunteer at a no-kill cat shelter, featured in her Superromance, Beauty & the Beasts. She also serves as doorkeeper and can opener for more cats and dogs than she cares to admit to sharing a home with.
