Wrong Groom, Wrong Bride
Chloe Patterson was one day away from becoming part of the most affluent family in Riverton…until her fiancé married another woman! Pregnant with a Hopewell heir, Chloe realized the only way to protect her baby from the powerful family was to keep her pregnancy a secret.
Simon Hopewell was used to cleaning up his brother's messes, but he never thought he'd take such an interest in his latest fiasco—or rather, his latest fiancée. It was clear Chloe was hiding something, but then again, as Simon's feelings for Chloe rapidly changed from responsibility to love, he knew he had a secret of his own….

Patricia Ann Kay was born on 7 March 1937 in a small town in northeastern Ohio, USA, where she raised along with three younger sisters. She considers herself a very lucky woman. The family didn’t have a lot of money, but she says that didn’t matter, because what they did have was worth more than money — a happy home. Her parents had a good marriage and they doted on their four daughters. That upbringing is reflected in the stories she writes. As readers all over the world have discovered, her books are filled with warmth and love of family.
Pat has lived in upstate New York, Northern Alabama, Southern California, and Stockholm (Sweden), and since 1969, in Houston, Texas with her husband. She says that no matter where she’s lived, she’s found that people everywhere are the same and want the same things: love and committed relationships. The marriage has three terrific grown children. They currently share their home with two longhaired cats, and a backyard filled with squirrels, birds, and other critters. Her hobbies and other interests include reading, walking for exercise, going to the movies and the theater, swimming, and traveling.
In 1990, Pat sold her first romance novel to Silhouette. Since then, more than four million copies of her novels have been published in eighteen different countries. Today, Patricia Kay, alias Ann Patrick and Trisha Alexander, is an USA Today bestselling author of 50 novels of romance and women's fiction.

Finally , a nice one... i felt good while reading it..
The plot was strong and the story seems so realistic ..
about how two people in the wrong place ( more like from the wrong family) at the wrong time ,fall in love and end up happy without the unnecessary tragedy that some authors tend to add.

A low energy romance where the older brother is EVERYTHING his twerp of a little brother is not.
Little brother drops his fiancee for an elopement with a woman that is worthier aka from a monied society family. The evil mother of the fiancee is rumored to have a soft side that is not in evidence.
Sllllooooooowwwww romance between the older brother and ex who is pregnant.
I broke my rule about brother to brother affiliation.

It was a really good book. However, I wished the ending was a bit better.

What a mess.
So spoiled, self-absorbed younger brother decides to get hitched while he's supposed to be working on a project for the family company. Of course, he notifies his fiancée of this via fed-ex. Of course said jilted fiancee is pregnant.
Brother apparently is highly attracted to jilted pregnant lady. Brother initiates contact, ostensibly to apologize for juvenile behavior on the part of the brat. Pregnant lady tries keeping him at arms' length. He's persistent.
In the meantime, mommy dearest is ticked off because older brother isn't increasing her stipend from the company, is planning a big reception for darling brat and his hussy, etc.
The one thing that bugged me - the heroine lets her overbearing cousin drag her into several places she didn't really want to go, and cause her a great deal of discomfort. Eventually it does occur to her that maybe she needs to create distance between herself and her cousin because the constant interference is causing problems. No shit. Unfortunately, this runs through the whole book. Cousin doesn't like it that she's planning to move (she wants to avoid the ex and his family finding out about the baby), doesn't like it that the H is showing up all the time...of course, the cousin drags her to a night club (that she didn't want to go) where the H's other brother is playing that night in the band, and to a baby shower (inconsiderate) where she runs into the ex's SIL. No - I began disliking the cousin, and wishing the h'd grow a spine and tell her to butt out.
