Pregnant and widowed hadn't been part of her "happily ever after" dream. And now, someone was trying to kill her . . . Erin Macintyre never expected to be a widow and a new mother in the same year, anymore than she expected mysterious notes, threatening phone calls, and a strange homeless man who seems to know all about her. The thought of raising a child without a father is daunting enough-worse when you have no idea who might want to harm you. Put an old flame into the mix, and her life begins a tailspin into a world she never knew existed. When P.I. Clay Buchanan, stumbles upon Erin at her husband's gravesite, he's totally unprepared for her advanced pregnancy. Her venomous reaction at seeing him, however, was predictable. But Clay can't let her distrust, or his guilt, get in the way-not when he has evidence that proves Erin's life is in danger. With few options left, Erin begrudgingly accepts Clay's help . . . and it just might be her undoing.
