When a fiery woman shows up on his doorstep with a baby in her arms, charming Texas billionaire Jack Travis's carefree playboy days come to an abrupt halt. Jack's never been one for responsibility—or commitment of any kind—but he's about to discover there's a first time for everything, and this time involves a tiny human and a woman who challenges everything he thought he wanted. What unfolds is a delicious dance of attraction, redemption, and unexpected tenderness as two people learn that sometimes the best things in life are the ones you never saw coming. Perfect for readers who love a reformed rake discovering that love might just be his greatest adventure yet.
