About the book

In ‘Til There Was U, Dianne Castell introduced the strong, family-centered O’Fallon clan, Mississippi men who are always there for each other. When Rory O’Fallon discovers a beautiful baby girl on his front porch, he’s determined to find the little girl’s mother. To do that, he’ll have to call his sons home to O’Fallon’s Landing.KEEFEKeefe O’Fallon might be the newest hunk on the soap opera circuit, but to him, family is everything. That’s why he’s headed back to O’Fallon’s Landing to help his dad find baby Bonnie’s mother. He’s had enough of the press hounding his every move, and escaping to the backwaters of the Mississippi River seems the perfect answer—especially when he gets a look at the sassy, beautiful nanny. She’s terrific with little Bonnie and Keefe is wildly attracted to her...until he finds out she’s not the nanny at all. She’s the enemy. The impossible, irresistible, very desirable enemy...Keefe might be hell-bent on keeping his private life private, but Callie has other plans for the sexy new star. She needs an exclusive interview for Soap Scoops magazine so she can finance her kid sister’s education. At least that’s her plan until she actually meets Keefe, a real man of the Mississippi with the kind of good-natured charm and fiery kisses that would scorch the pages of her magazine. And suddenly, Callie has to choose between keeping her job and keeping Keefe...
