"He doesn't want to love her, but Mitch can't resist"

Five years ago, Ginny Morgan was swept away by a handsome, sweet talking man from Texas. A man who she thought loved her but disappeared after Spring Break was over. When Ginny realized she was pregnant, she tried to find Mitch Holden, but he seemed to have disappeared off the face of the earth.

Ginny did what she had to, raising her son on her own, saving every penny so that Joey could have an operation to fix his eyes. Until during her break one day, she saw an article about John Mitchell Holden donating a large amount of money to a foundation. Thinking she finally found the father of her child, she packs Joey up, takes a weeks vacation and heads off to Tumbleweed, Texas. She doesn't need Mitch to be a father, but if he has money to donate to charity, he could spare some to help pay for Joey's surgery.

Mitch Holden doesn't know who this woman is on his doorstep looking for him, but when she faints dead away, he knows he's going to have to help her. The last thing Mitch wants is to open himself up. After losing his wife and daughter in a car accident, Mitch has closed himself off from most of the family and buried himself in work. But when he finds out why Ginny is looking for a man who claimed to be him, he not only wants to help her, but her child too. And just maybe he can find out who was using his name all those years ago.

A deal is all that Mitch had in mind when Ginny was back on her feet. He would pay for little Joey's operation if she would stay and work as his secretary until his came back. What Mitch ended up getting was feelings he thought died along with his wife, thoughts of keeping Ginny around for more than her secretarial skills.

What a sweet, heart-touching story. You are instantly pulled in and and are rooting for Ginny. All she wants is what isbest for her son and the sacrifices she's made makes youlove and respect the woman and mother she has become. Mitch is a man you feel for because he lost what was most dear to him, but you are surprised at how he deals with his pain. Not to mention Joey, the little sweetie and some other characters in the book really makes the story complete by pushing Ginny and Mitch together. Ms. McMahon touches your soul with love in THE BOSS'S CONVENIENT PROPOSAL. I really enjoyed this warm, heart-felt story and look forward to reading what Ms. McMahon writes next.
