He's raised a child who might not be his own. Does he have it in his heart to do it again? Fire chief Nick Dalton has a lot on his plate. He's had to move to a small town in Washington to get his twelve-going-on-twenty-year-old daughter away from the rough crowd she was hanging with in Los Angeles. He's also struggling with the knowledge his late wife imparted on her deathbed - their child might not be his biologically. Erin Hanson has returned to the small town she grew up in to come to terms with a failed romance, and Nick is just the kind of man to make her quickly forget her woes. But suddenly she has a more wrenching situation on her hands - she's pregnant with her ex-fiance's child. Erin knows Nick loves her. Now they both have to find out if he can love her baby, too. - back cover (Chatswood, 2002)
