About the book
"Doesn't your job ever make you yearn for a child of your own?"
Rachel Ellis had come to Spain to find her brother and, instead, discovered a tiny niece she hadn't even known existed. Rachel longed for a baby of her own but, since there seemed little chance of finding Mr. Right, looking after Luisa seemed to be the next best thing.
But little Luisa came equipped with a self-appointed guardian - Vincente de Riano. A man who was husband material by anyone's standards, and Rachel found it all too easy to imagine being married to the charming widower. It was a dangerous dream, for Vincente had turned his back on love and Rachel was too much of a romantic to settle for anything less.
The baby business had always been fraught with hazards. Rachel was used to growing too attached to her small charges - it was her feelings for Vincente she couldn't control!
