Part of the Millionaire, Montana series where 12 people win the lottery and how it changes their personal lives and the lives of their town.

Part of "The Elliotts" series.  This is the story of Bryan Elliott, the only Elliott NOT involved in the publishing companies.  The reason he's not involved?  He's secretly been working as a spy!  His restaurant business is only a cover, which he enjoys in his spare time.  Bryan's been working with Lucy, a pretty and conservative bank worker, who accidentally stumbled on embezzlement and terrorists.   When someone finds out that Lucy has been working with Bryan and The Feds, Lucy's life is in danger.  Bryan pulls her out of danger, and hides her away at his personal home because he suspects the leak about Lucy came from within his organization.  Not able to trust anyone, they pretend Lucy is Bryan's girlfriend while they work together to get to the bottom of the puzzles. 

Natalie sleeps with ex-husband Josh at their 25 year reunion and gets pregnant to both their surprises as infertility was the cause of their break-up. Josh insists on being part of the baby's life so Natalie moves from Dallas to Houston but the road to romance is complicated by his twin sons, her teenage adopted daughter and pregnancy hormones.

This book was a first for me in the Harlequin American Romance line as well as a first by the author, Kara Lennox.  I chose it because the story was about two people who find themselves back together at their 25th high school reunion and are still madly physically attracted to each other.  (They also live in Texas, like I do!)
