He’s ready to die…Riddled with survivor's guilt, Detective Kevin O'Brien stoically accepts his doctor’s diagnosis. He gets his affairs in order so he can spend his last days in comfort and peace in a quaint bed and breakfast inn. What he finds is a charming young woman who can use his help.…but she makes him want to live!More than anything, Bethany Miller longs to have a baby before the alarm sounds on her biological clock, but without the hassle of a husband. She fights her attraction to the mysterious Kevin; he doesn’t fit into her plans. She reconsiders when he proposes a no-strings offer of fatherhood...and marriage. But Kevin and Bethany learn that the best-laid plans are subject to change.

Reviews

[Cheryl Norman · Rating 5 out of 5]

This one won the 2003 EPPIE for best contemporary romance. Even though I wrote it and loved the story, I couldn't in good conscience rate it 5 stars because my writing has improved since then (or so I've been told.)
