Erin Winters has struggled ever since the accident that took her husband's life and left her young son seriously injured. Desperate to get her son the surgery he needs, she agrees to become a surrogate mother. But when the wife dies unexpectedly, Erin is suddenly faced with the demands of the grieving husband and carrying a child she has come to think of as her own.
Blake Tanner had it all--marriage to a woman he adored, a successful career as a lawyer, and a child on the way. Now, tormented by his loss and overwhelmed at the prospect of single fatherhood, Blake comes up with a solution that may be his final undoing.
In the hope that he can give his child the life he deserves, he asks Erin and her son to live with him. In exchange, he will provide them with all the advantages a Texas billionaire can offer. It's a simple financial arrangement that makes perfect sense, until Blake's grief is slowly replaced by a glimmer of hope--and desire the beautiful woman stirs in him.
As Erin and Blak surrender to the powerful sensual force that neither can ignore, the two must help each other overcome their anguish and dare to build a new life, and love, together.

“You’re pregnant.”
The implication of those two words hadn’t hit her right away, but as Erin Winters sat by her son’s hospital bed two weeks later and watched him sleep, it hit her hard.
She was pregnant again, yet she was not going to keep the baby. And she knew nothing about her baby’s father except his name—James Blake Tanner IV—and the fact that he and his infertile wife apparently had money to burn since they hadn’t even haggled over paying the fifty thousand dollars she’d asked for to act as their surrogate. His wife had apologized for his absence on the day they’d sealed the arrangement, saying her husband would have come with her if he hadn’t been tied up in court that afternoon.
Erin told herself it didn’t matter, although she’d gotten the idea that the biological father of this baby wasn’t keen on the idea of surrogacy and was going along with it to please his determined wife.
This was just another job. A job that paid well enough that she’d been able to come up with the deposit the hospital had demanded before admitting Timmy for the operation he’d had earlier today.
But . . . it wasn’t just another job. A tiny human was growing inside her, developing his or her own unique features and personality. Would he be like Timmy, cheerful and bright in spite of his immobility and the pain that often dulled his eyes and made him look older than his seven years?
Erin would never know, because she’d agreed to relinquish this baby the minute it left her womb. Closing her eyes, she lay back in the recliner and tried to rest.
