About the book
Mistress...and mother!
Trish's body still tingled at the memory of her time with Adam four years ago, but he'd seemed more interested in dating glamorous women than settling down! Trish had vowed to forget him--until, gorgeously irresistible as ever, he appeared on her doorstep insisting it was Trish he really wanted....
Surely this time Adam was here to stay? The passion between them was as thrilling as Trish remembered. But then a fax arrived from his "fiancee"--just as Trish was about to announce she was carrying Adam's baby!
She's sexy, she's successful...and she's PREGNANT!
