Book Synopsis

Sheltered her entire life, Jessie Murdock has rarely gotten her way. Until her dying father makes a deal with Cadde Hardin. Cadde will get shares of Shilah Oil on one condition–marry Jessie.

In love with him for years, Jessie doesn''t hesitate to sign the papers. But she didn''t sign up for a completely absent husband. Now Jessie has a counter offer. She''ll give Cadde controlling interest of the business if he''ll give her a baby…the natural way.

Only he has a few caveats of his own. When life refuses to follow their written plan, Jessie and Cadde have to decide which is more important: their unspoken love or the family business.
