The Army Doc's Baby Bombshell. Sue MacKay

Чтение книги онлайн.

      Cooper reached to draw her into his arms and held her against his chest, where she fitted perfectly. His breath hitched at the back of his throat and for a moment he couldn’t utter a word. So he just enjoyed the moment. What would Sophie do if he kissed her?

      Finally he managed, “I’m starting to really like you.”

      “Now, there’s a novel idea,” she quipped as she snuggled closer.

      He swallowed hard and lowered his chin to the top of her head, breathed deep to absorb the scent of sunscreen and flowers, and relaxed against her. Her short breaths against his shirt, her hands on his chest—everything about her made him complete. She took away some of the doubts that had been niggling him since he first saw that baby bump.

      Whatever the difficulties ahead, they’d manage...would sort out how to go about raising a child between them in less-than-perfect circumstances. He wasn’t worried on that score. Though he should be. Because becoming a father still didn’t sit easily with him. Yet this was Sophie. The one woman he’d never forgotten. He remembered her body as hot satin in his hands that night that had led them to this moment. To this baby.

Dear Reader,

      This is my twentieth book and I couldn’t be happier. When my first book sold I was in awe of the whole process and felt stunned to have made it that far. Now I still feel the same. Not one story has been straightforward—as in I’ve never believed the process has got any easier. My stories come from the heart, and therefore I feel each and every one of them.

      I thank you all for picking up and reading my stories. Without you I’d be wasting my time.

      This one came out of the blue. It started with the idea of secret babies and war doctors. That’s all. And yet here is a story that screamed out to be written.

      When Sophie first sees Cooper she’s smitten—but she isn’t following through, right...? Throw in a bomb, casualties, surgeries and, hey, what comes next when you’re up close to the hunkiest man you’ve ever seen? The result of which is a baby. It’s what happens after this that is the real story. We can all be smitten and have a wonderful time, but it’s the way we deal with the consequences that is life-changing.

      Read the story to find out how Cooper and Sophie deal with them, and let me know what you think of their journey at [email protected] or suemackay.co.nz.

      Cheers!

      This one’s for my man, for always supporting me even when the writing turns to custard. And to my girl, her partner and their two beautiful children because they are special.

      Also to the Blenheim girls, without whom I’d go bonkers more often than I already do. Iona King, Barb Deleo, Louisa George, Deborah Shattock, Nadine Taylor and Kate David. You guys rock, and are so special. The best move I ever made was to the Marlborough district, where I hooked up with you.

      To Laura, the most helpful, wonderful editor I could wish for.

      I love you all.

      Hugs,

      Sue
