From the Back: As far as Morgan was concerned, Jodie's visit was worrying. According to the baby's birth certificate, Jodie was the child's next of kin-- but Morgan knew he was the baby's real father. Unless Morgan acted, Jodie would get custody-- and he would lose his precious son... But the attraction between Jodie and Morgan was overwhelming... the passion explosive. Perhaps there was a way for Morgan to keep his son: Marriage! From the back cover I was some how expecting something totally different then what I got when I read this book. It was a pleasant surprise. Jodie is a woman just leaving her live in relationship with her boy friend in New York and has decided to finally meet her birth father in England event though she hasn't heard from him in the 6 months since he first contacted her. Morgan is living in Sam's, Jodie's fathers, house watching the baby he knows is his but the world thinks is Sam's. The problem is Sam has been in the hospital since his fiancée and the baby's mother died in a car accident 5 weeks prior. Problems arise because, Dam does not want to see Jodie, he thinks that Jodie never contacted him, Jodie's is stubborn and Morgan is afraid to lose his son and more afraid to break Sam's heart, Sam having acted like a surrogate father to Morgan as a boy growing up. Given all this the book is a great read full of emotion and passion. The characters are lovable and down to earth. My major two issues in the book are small first if Jodie grew up in America some of the terms she used just aren't used here. For instance "Daily's" may be the day help in England but that term is almost never used here. My other issue was with Jodie's stubbornness she refuses at one point to leave her fathers house saying that she has more right to be there then Morgan does. She has yet to even meet father yet. Otherwise the book is a quick enjoyable read. That I will probably pick up and reread again.
