THE FAMILY WAY

9 MONTHS LATER

A pregnant woman without a husband
A family without a father
And a mysterious stranger who
wants to be both

She's the pregnant mother of two children. She's also a recent widow, still mourning the death of her husband, who died before she even knew about the pregnancy. And she's trying to manage a failing resort in Nevada. Despite all this, Wendy Sloan is copingsort of.

When a handsome stranger named Josh Walker appears one day, looking for a job, Wendy figures he's too good to be true. Reluctantly, she lets him stay. In no time, her kids are crazy about him and he's fixing up the place, just as he promised. And WendyWendy's attracted to him. Very attracted. She doesn't want to be, but she is.

As it turns out, both of her contradictory reactions to Josh are right. No, he's not what he seems to be, not exactly. And yes, he's a man worth loving. A man who can bring wholeness and happiness back into her family's life. A man who wants to be a father to her childrenall three of them.
