SOLVED. Harlequin book (?) with Heroine who leaves husband and newborn daughter due to not feeling like she can handle the new responsibilties she has.. [s]

[Jen]

Hello there, I am looking for this book I read 2-3 years ago. I am almost sure it is a harlequin.
It is about the heroine who leaves hero and her newborn daughter because she didnt feel like she was ready for that responsibilty and she may have had postnatal depression. She returns to town years later when the daughter is either teen or pre teen. I remember that the daughter wanted to meet her mother and when she and the heroine spent time together the hero's mother didnt like it.
Ofcourse there was tension between the hero and the heroine but in the end there was a HEA.

Things Im not sure about:
-The heroine may be named Lily
-The heroine might have been on the cover in a yellow sundress.

Thanks, in advance,for your help.

Who raised her daughter - e.g., her married sister as in Home Before Dark by Susan Wiggs?

For all the years that the heroine was away, the father who is the hero raised his daughter. He also had help from his mother.

Additional info:
The hero and the heroine were young when they had their daughter. That may have contributed to her leaving her family.

No Escape by Daphne Clair


'"What sort of woman can walk out on a baby?"

Karen Lacey flinched inwardly at Drew Bridger's angry question. For years she had tortured herself wondering the same thing.

When eighteen-year-old Karen fled from her husband, Drew, and their six-month-old daughter, she never expected to see either of them again. But a chance encounter ten years later brought both Drew and Holly back into her life.

Karen hardly dared to hope for a second chance as a wife and mother. If she became close to Drew and Holly again, she couldn't avoid the questions she dreaded.'

No Escape by Daphne Clair for Clare's suggestion.

Is this a reissue because it says it was published last year august and I am 95% sure this is the book but I read it probably a year or two prior to that.

Publication info says it's a first edition. I haven't found an earlier one.
