Along came love / by Livesay, Tracey,author.(CARDINAL)676272;
"When a silly, impulsive decision lands free-spirited India Shaw behind bars in San Francisco, she has no choice but to call the only person she knows in the unfamiliar city--the very man she abandoned after a steamy two-day fling. The fact that she's pregnant with his child is something she'd rather not divulge. Tech executive Michael Black never thought he'd hear from the quirky beauty after she left his bed four months ago, much less be called upon to post bail. He's got his hands full with a corporate merger that could make or break his career, but his honorable nature--and an overwhelming need to see her again--means he can't just leave her in jail. And when India reveals the truth about her pregnancy, Mike insists she stay with him until the baby is born. India doesn't want to depend on him for anything, but their constant proximity stirs up feelings she can't ignore. She's never desired a family before and she knows a future with Mike isn't possible --but then along came love to shake up all her plans"--Page 4 of cover.
