BOOK SUMMARY
A princess and a Southern billionaire
are expecting twins! Only from USA TODAY bestselling author Catherine Mann!
His
focus is on his family's football dynasty. Louisiana billionaire Gervais
Reynaud has no time for romance. But he can't say no to a tryst with Erika
Mitras. True, she's a princess, but in no way prim…or proper. Their time
together is unbelievable…and all too short.
When
Erika said goodbye, she meant it. But now she must tell Gervais the truth. He's
about to be a father…to royal twins. After leaving her overbearing family,
Erika wants nothing from Gervais. But the tempting tycoon just may charm her
into a future she desires all too much.

EXCERPT
His dark eyes heated her with memories as
he strode toward her. His long legs ate the ground in giant slices, his khakis
and sports jacket declaring him in the middle of a work day. He stopped in
front of her, his broad shoulders blocking the sun and casting his handsome
face in shadows. But she didn’t have to see to know his jaw would be peppered
with the stubble that seemed to grow in seconds after he shaved. Her fingers –
her body – remembered the texture of that rasp well.
Her breath caught somewhere in her chest.
He folded his
arms over his chest, just under the Hurricanes logo stitched on the front of
his jacket. “Welcome to the States, Erika. No one mentioned your intention to
visit. I thought you don’t like sports.”
“And yet, here
I am.” And in need of privacy out of the bright Louisiana sun and the even
brighter curious eyes of his team and staff. She needed space and courage to
tell him why she’d made this unexpected journey across the Atlantic to this
muggy bayou state. “This is not an official royal visit.”
“And you’re not
in uniform.” His eyes glided over her wrap around dress.
“I’m out of the
service now.” About to return to school to be a nurse, the career field she’d
hoped to pursue in the military but they would not allow her such an in-the-field
position, instead preferring to dress her up and trot her around as a
figure-head translator. “I am here for a conference on homeopathic herbs and
scents.” A part of her passion in the nursing field, and a totally made up
excuse for being here today.
“Are you here
to share specially scented deodorant to my players? Because they could
certainly use it.” His mouth tipped with a smile.
“Are you
interested in such a line?” Still jet-lagged from the transatlantic flight, she
was ill-prepared to exchange pleasantries.
“Is that why
you are here? For business?”
She could not
just banter with him. She simply could not. “Please, can we go somewhere
private to talk?”
He searched her
eyes with for a long moment before gesturing over his shoulder. “I’m in the middle
of a meeting with sponsors. How about supper?”
“I am not here
for seduction,” she stated bluntly.
“Okay.” His eye
brows shot upward. “I thought I asked you to join me for gumbo, not sex. But
now that we’re talking about sex--”
“We are not.”
She cut him short. “Finish your meeting if you must, but I need to speak with
you as soon as possible. Privately. Unless you want your personal business and
mine overheard by all of your team straining to listen.”
She definitely
was not ready for them to hear she was pregnant with the heir to the Reynaud
family dynasty.
CAT'S REVIEW
"His Pregnant Princess Bride" by Catherine Mann. We meet Erika and Gervais in this tale of a whirlwind fling that has lasting consequences. I liked Gervais - he's a hard worker that wants to prove he's a good guy. And he is! He is a bit stuffy but when he lets his guard down, he's uber sexy. Erika was an ok character for me - she frustrated me often. She is quite stubborn and her resistance to Gervais became a bit annoying after a bit. Despite that, there were many qualities that I did like about her - she's independent and knows what she wants in life. The story line was a bit predictable but enjoyable just the same. I did like the secondary characters, especially Leon. I hope in future books of the series, we learn more about him. This is a pleasant read that didn't take too long - it's just what you need to take your mind off of everyday life for a lttle bit. (received copy for honest review).
