BECAUSE OF THE BABY

**Marriage…because of the baby

Friendship has boundaries…doesn't it?**

Melissa Lopez is a doctor at the medical clinic Kyle Davenport runs. They work together, spend off-hours having fun together-they're friends.

It was never supposed to happen, but one hot summer night they give in to the secret attraction they feel for each other-and Melissa becomes pregnant with Kyle's child.

They want to give their baby the best life possible. Which means two full-time parents. They're not in love, though, so maybe a wedding, shotgun-style, is the solution. Romance won't figure in the bargain-just mutual support, respect and convenience.

Soon their safe, tidy arrangement is less than satisfying. But they can have more-if they're willing to face old fears. If they're willing to risk real commitment. Their own happiness depends on it. More important, they need to take the chance…because of the baby.
