This wolf is seeing red...
At first, Regan Macintosh was certain that the hot—and shirtless—stranger in the woods was harmless. That is, until he sweet-talks his way into her grandmother’s lodge and gets her to sell him cherished family land. Yes, now Regan sees past Jamie Quinn’s roguish charm to the wicked wolf she knows he really is.
Jamie has no idea what he’s done to earn Regan’s suspicion, or her efforts to block his project. His motives are purely altruistic—well, aside from wanting to kiss her until she’s breathless with want. But Jamie never expected to experience the intensity of desire he feels for Regan. And if they’re not careful, their hungry passion could make them both lose control...

—Fresh Fiction on The Mighty Quinns: Dermot
It’s hard to believe, but this title, The Mighty Quinns: Jamie, is my 90th story for Harlequin. I’ve come such a long way from that first novel.
I’ve worked with many different editors on books for many Harlequin series, including Temptation, Love & Laughter and Blaze, as well as various miniseries and novellas. I’ve scoured the world for Quinns, creating a family saga that is currently thirty-seven books long.
Is this the last of the Quinns? It’s hard to say. But I will be working on some exciting new projects in the future, so be sure to stay tuned.
Happy reading,
The Mighty Quinns: Jamie

“WHAT DOES IT MEAN?” Jamie Quinn asked, staring at the bright yellow card stapled to the front door of their house on Downey Street in Minneapolis.
“It’s an eviction notice,” Thom said. His older brother reached for the shiny new padlock that had been attached to the door, preventing them from entering. A shiver of dread rattled through Jamie’s body, but he clenched his teeth and ignored it. He’d learned to control his deepest fears. He could be as strong as his older brothers if he had to be.
“How can they evict us?” Tristan asked. “We paid the rent last month.”
“Yeah, but we were already five months behind,” Thom explained.
“All our stuff is inside. How are we going to get it?”
“We’ll break in,” Thom said. “But we’ll wait until it gets dark. There’s a broken window in the basement that Jamie can squeeze through. Until then, we’re going to have to find a place to sleep for the night.”
The trio walked
