More Than Words Volume 3

Five bestselling authors Five real-life heroines

They're your neighbors, your aunts, your sisters and your best friends. They're women across North America committed to reaching out and changing lives, one good deed at a time. Five of these exceptional women have been selected as this year's recipients of Harlequin's More Than Words Award. And once again five award-winning bestselling authors have kindly offered their creativity to write original short stories inspired by these real-life heroines.

Because of this year's recipients' dedication, thousands of tiny babies born into poverty are going home from the hospital wearing warm, hand-knit clothing. Inmates are raising pups to keep people safe and be loyal guide dogs. Special-needs kids finally have a sports league to call their own. Cancer survivors enjoy a week of relaxation and rejuvenation nestled in Canada's stunning cottage country. And high-quality, low-cost children's books in Braille are finding their way to the thousands of children who need them.

We hope More Than Words will touch your heart and inspire the heroine living inside you.

Thank you. Proceeds from the sale of this book will be reinvested in the Harlequin More Than Words program to support causes that are of concern to women.

I'm so glad that I picked up this book! Though the stories are fictitious, they are based on real support causes by real women who have made real impact to people's lives. I was so inspired to rush right out and find a worthy organization to volunteer my time to! While all five stories are heartwarming, delightful and inspirational, I particularly liked the first three. And now I know 5 more authors to read from!
