“I’m Thinking That Maybe You Believe Sleeping
With Me Might Make For Good Publicity.

Or you want the novelty of sleeping with an actress.” Had she actually said
that? She hadn’t even known the fear existed until the words fell out of her
mouth.
Sam held up one finger. “First. I don’t need you or the damn press in order to
be successful. I could buy your family business twice over.” He ticked off a
second finger. “Second, if I wanted novelty there are other women I could turn to
who wouldn’t accuse me of chasing them for their money.”
Bella’s eyebrows shot upward. “You really aren’t lacking in ego.”
“Women chase me for my money. That’s nothing to be proud of.”
A hesitant smile tipped her mouth. “I really don’t have anything you need.”
“Now, there you’re wrong.” He stepped closer, his body totally flush against
hers, his hard muscles a sweet temptation against her.

Don’t miss the exclusive in-book short story
by USA TODAY bestselling author
Maureen Child after the last page of
Propositioned Into a Foreign Affair!

Dear Reader,
Thank you for tuning in for the next installment of the Hudson family saga!
What a delight it was for me to tell Bella Hudson’s story, since she’s an actress.
Prior to my writing career, I too made my living in the theater—on the stage
however, rather than the big screen. After completing my master’s degree in
theater, I returned to Charleston, South Carolina, and worked at the historic
Dock Street Theater.
While my theater days are now long past, I still find my training comes in
handy with my books—such as when staging a scene or delving deep into
characterization. And best of all, while submerged in the world of creating
stories, I get to write the script and direct the show, as well as be all the
characters!
Thanks again for picking up Bella’s book and happy reading!
Cheers,
Catherine Mann
