The Surprise Baby
About this ebook
A PRACTICAL MARRIAGE
Maybe that was all Jane Elliot's maddeningly attractive boss, Maxwell Hamilton, had to offer her, but blinded by love, Jane accepted nonetheless. And she hoped to have all the time in the world to change his mind about his "no love and certainly no babies!" policy. But then she learned that their one night of honeymoon bliss had left her in extreme violation of the rules. And a positive pregnancy test.
