Jake's wife, Elise, wants a baby more than anything.

Then Jake discovers that a brief liaison more than three years ago – before he even met Elise – had an unexpected consequence. A baby. A child who’s been abandoned by his birth mother and needs a home. And he’s not just any little boy – he has some special needs and requires extra attention.

Jake knows he can be a father to his son

and can put in the time and effort it will take to make Ben grow up to be a healthy boy. But can Elise become this little boy’s mother? She’d hoped to be pregnant by Christmas. Can she accept another woman’s child instead?
