“Constance?” Wendy said, and Michael nodded. Constance was perfect. Their daughter’s name would
stand for the constancy of the love that had brought her into the world, the love that had sustained her parents through months of the painful aftermath following Patterson’s death—he’d survived only a few hours—and James Batliner’s prosecution.

Michael knew that love would sustain them through the rest of their lives. He brushed Wendy’s hair from her face, then kissed her softly. “Constance,” he murmured, and the baby squalled her approval.

THE EDITOR’S CORNER

Welcome to Loveswept!

Love is in the air this month — and no, I’m not talking about
that holiday
. I’m talking about all of our fantastic Loveswept releases coming up, and I’m so excited to share them all with you.

Tina Wainscott’s red-hot
WILD ON YOU
introduces the Justiss Alliance, an elite team of heroes out to do right. This is one book that will be hard to put down, as one untamable SEAL meets a woman who handles the wildest sort of animals — until she herself becomes the hunted. Another book that I keep raving about it Sally Eggert’s electrifying romantic suspense,
IN THE DARK
, where passion raises the stakes when a woman is drawn into a dangerous game, with a man who may not be what he seems. Intrigued? I was! If you’re a fan of historical romance with tons of sensuality, adventure and intrigue, look no further than Sharon Cullen’s
PLEASING THE PIRATE
, where a ruthless pirate and a Scottish lass are wrenched between love and duty. And if you were sucked into Stacey Kennedy’s CLAIMED like I was, you’ll be happy to hear that the oh-so-sexy Club Sin returns in
BARED
— a wicked and wild tale of submission, seduction, and love.

And of course, we can’t forget about those classic romances that made us fall in love time and again. This month we have two fantastic books from two beloved authors: Sandra Chastain’s irresistible reads:
JOKER’S WILD
and
LEAN MEAN LOVING MACHINE
, and Ruth Owen’s wonderful historicals:
MIDNIGHT MISTRESS
and
GAMBLER’S DAUGHTER
. Then there’s Karen Leabo’s tale of hot pursuit and hotter passions,
HOT PROPERTY
, and Linda Cajio’s
EARTH ANGEL
, where a boardroom hotshot discovers heavenly pleasure with an unlikely angel. And a sensuous historical tale from #1
New York Times
bestselling author Iris Johansen,
WILD SILVER: THE DELANEY’S
— who doesn’t love a story with a wicked prince and a beautiful, willful captive?
