He Had Never Planned On Being A Father.
But now that Mike was actually faced with the prospect of a child, it was different. Surprising as it was to admit, he had caught himself almost hoping there would be a baby. A girl maybe, with Denise’s blue eyes and blond hair.
Something inside him shifted painfully Was it the child he wanted... or was it her child that had suddenly become so important?
“We’ll know for sure tomorrow,” she said, “one way or the other. ”
He nodded.
“But tonight, Mike,” she went on, “let’s forget about everything but us. I want one more night with you before we know. Before things change forever. ”

MAUREEN CHILD
was born and raised in Southern California and is the only person she knows who longs for an occasional change of season. She is delighted to be writing for Silhouette and is especially excited to be a part of the Desire line.
An avid reader, she looks forward to those rare, rainy California days when she can curl up and sink into a good book. Or two. When she isn’t busy writing, she and her husband of twenty-five years like to travel, leaving their two grown children in charge of the neurotic golden retriever who is the real head of the household. She is also an award-winning historical writer under the names Kathleen Kane and Ann Carberry.
