Dani Carrigan has always relied on logic when making important life
decisions, but when she discovers she's pregnant - and that there's a
chance her baby may be born "not perfect" - logic lets her down.
It would help if the baby's father would pop the question, but widowed
father Adrian seems more interested in protecting his six-year-old
daughter than committing to his new relationship with Dani. The last
time she felt this alone and scared was when she was 16 and her mother
died, leaving Dani to raise her younger sisters with precious little
help from her distant and disapproving rancher father. She felt so
inadequate then, but is she any more prepared to be a mother now?
Support comes from an unlikely source. Dani always saw her next-door
neighbour and friend, divorce attorney Elliot Gilmore, as a charming,
handsome, playboy-type. But with each challenge she faces, from
pregnancy, to delivery and beyond - Elliot reveals himself a better man
than she ever guessed.
Is it possible that Elliot hasn't been playing the field - but waiting
for her?
