Hero in the Nick of Time
by Marie Ferrarella

CHILDFINDERS, INC.

THE MARRIAGE MASQUERADE

Cade Townsend knew almost nothing about his new wife! But posing as McKayla Dellaventura's husband was the only way they could expose the black-market ring that had stolen her infant niece-and his son. Still, the savvy investigator realized his marriage to the beautiful stranger who'd blasted herself into his solitary life needed to look real in every respect. He just didn't expect this amazing woman to arouse almost-forgotten emotions and needs. And he suddenly knew his family would never be complete unless McKayla made him more than just her hero in the nick of time!

When a child is missing and a heart needs mending, it's time to call ChildFinders, Inc.

Marie Ferrarella's Bio

Born in West Germany, arrived in the U.S. at four, I began writing when I was eleven. I began selling many years after that. Along the way, I acquired a Masters in Shakespearean Comedy from Queens College in N.Y, a husband and two kids (in that order)---the dog came later. My first romance was bought by Second Chance At Love November of 1981. The road from there to here has a hundred and thirty-seven more sales to it. I've been published by Silhouette, Harlequin, Zebra, Harper, Bantam and Berkeley. I've been fortunate enough to have received several Rita nominations from the Romance Writers of America Association over the years, with one win for Father Goose (in the Traditional Romance Category). I've also been nominated several times in various categories by Romantic Times Magazine. I hope to be found one day---many, many years from now---slumped over my computer, writing to the last moment. But before then, I would dearly love to write a successful screenplay. My goal has always been to entertain. Entertainment Weekly 2015 named me the fifth most prolific romance author of all time---and I have since moved up to the fourth position, having published 296 works.
