About the book
His secret son... Tyler Whitmore has returned home after nine years to claim his half of the family ranch. Brianne is right to be nervous. When Tyler left he had taken more than her innocence - he had taken her dreams and her heart. But unbeknownst to Tyler, he had left Brianne something in return - a baby!
Daniel is her pride and joy. But then, eighteen and pregnant, Brianne had been forced to marry the only man who had asked her - Tyler's brother, Boyd. But now her husband is gone and Tyler is back in town. The years have been more than kind to him. Tyler is as devastatingly attractive as ever. But if he'd never forgive her for marrying Boyd - what would he do if he ever discovers the truth about Daniel?
