The Baby Wore A Badge
by Marie Ferrarella

From Super Cop... to Super Dad?

Now we've seen everything. Jake Castro has come to Thunder Canyon...with a seven---month---old infant in tow! The decorated police officer is clearly hoping the family---friendly town will prove the perfect place to raise his daughter. But the rumor mills started to churn the moment Calista Clifton was hired to help out the handsome single father...

Serious sparks flew as soon as our hometown star met the out---of---town hero. But my sources tell me Jake might not yet be ready to settle down, despite his daddy status. Can he make Calista's dreams come true---and transform the babysitter into a bride? Stay tuned, loyal readers---this column will reveal all!

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.
