The scars from Marta Lawson's near-fatal accident have faded, but she still doubts her ability to attract a man-- never mind one as handsome as the Villazon police department's Derek Reed. But when the sergeant comes up for auction at a charity event, her friends have the winning bid-- and a dream date with the blond poster boy turns out to be her birthday gift.

Finding herself in the arms of the charismatic cop is so intoxicating she throws caution to the wind, and she's not totally surprised a month later when her doctor gives her some (doubly!) electrifying news she dreads sharing with the elusive bachelor.

But he's hiding a surprise, too. Will it break them apart - -or bring them closer together?
