A Letter from the Editor
Dear Reader,
I hope you liked the latest romance from Avon Impulse! If you’re looking for another steamy, fun, emotional read, be sure to check out some of our upcoming titles. We have something for everyone next month!
If you’re a fan of bad boys, you’ll definitely want to grab a copy of BAD FOR HER by Christi Barth! This is the first in a hilarious, sexy new series about three brothers in witness protection who are forced to start over in a tiny Oregon town. With a fake identity and too many secrets, ex-mobster Rafe Maguire can’t get serious with the gorgeous local doctor . . . but trying to be good doesn’t mean he can’t be a little bad.
We also have a fun new sports romance from Julie Brannagh! The latest installment in her Love and Football series, NECESSARY ROUGHNESS is a fun, steamy story of a gruff, grumpy football star with an injury that’s put him out of commission and his sexy, spunky physical therapist who is almost too tempting to resist.
And finally, for a quick, sexy, suspenseful read, you’ll want to one-click the new novella from HelenKay Dimon! THE NEGOTIATOR is about a woman who discovers her supposedly long-dead husband’s body on her kitchen floor and must team up with sexy, savvy Garrett McGrath to uncover the truth before she’s accused of murder!
You can purchase any of these titles by clicking the links above or by visiting our website, www.AvonRomance.com. Thank you for loving romance as much as we do . . . enjoy!
Sincerely,
Nicole Fischer
