A Family Of Her Own
by Brenda Novak

Katie Rogers feels like a human boomerang when she returns to Dundee, Idaho disillusioned, broke and pregnant. She was going to broaden her horizons and make something of her life in the big city. Instead she's paying a high price for trusting the wrong man.

Booker Robinson grew up angry and rebellious. He even spent some time in jail. But thanks to the unwavering love of his grandmother, he's finally turned his life around. He owns a successful auto repair shop in town and enjoys quiet nights at his farmhouse in the mountains. He thinks he's got everything under control—until he finds Katie broken down on the side of the road.

Booker's just spent two years getting over Katie. She's the last person he wants to see. But when her parents refuse to take her in, she doesn't have anywhere else to go, and he soon finds himself with a new roommate.

Katie has vowed she'll never trust the wrong man again. But sometimes a man isn't everything he seems. And sometimes he's more...

Brenda Novak's Bio

It was a shocking experience that jump-started Brenda Novak’s career as a bestselling author—she caught her day-care provider drugging her children with cough syrup to get them to sleep all day. That was when Brenda decided she needed to quit her job as a loan officer and help make a living from home. “When I first got the idea to become a novelist, it took me five years to teach myself the craft and finish my first book,” Brenda says. But she sold that book, and the rest is history. Her novels have made the New York Times and USA Today bestseller lists and won many awards, including five Rita nominations, the Book Buyer’s Best, the Book Seller’s Best and the National Reader’s Choice Award. Brenda and her husband, Ted, live in Sacramento and are proud parents of five children—three girls and two boys. When she’s not spending time with her family or writing, Brenda is usually raising funds for diabetes research (her youngest son has this disease). So far, Brenda has raised $2.6 million.
