A BABY ON THE WAY
A secret, no-strings relationship with Aaron Travers has suited Melody Hartman just fine for the past eight months. The lives of the Mustang Valley veterinarian and the deputy sheriff have always been complicated—and are about to become more so, because Mel is pregnant!
Raising his toddler daughter and protecting his Arizona town are Aaron’s priorities. But this unexpected pregnancy is a life changer. The widowed single dad is ready to do the right thing and marry Mel. Can he say the three words she is waiting to hear? Will she think he wants to marry her only because of the baby? Or will she acknowledge that their feelings for each other run deeper than either of them realized?
Aaron lifted her off her feet and hard against him.
“Is this a good idea?” Mel’s voice wavered. The message earlier had been hands-off.
“You can tell me no.” He lowered his mouth, stopping a millimeter shy of kissing her. “Otherwise, hang on.”
Hang on? Like to his shoulders? Weak in the knees, she decided maybe she’d better. Just as a precaution.
In the deepest recesses of her mind, a small voice shouted a warning to be careful. This was inviting danger.
She didn’t listen. Aaron smelled too delicious and felt too good for her to stop now.
“I’ve missed you, Mel.” He brushed his lips across hers, the touch softer than a butterfly’s wings.
The words she’d longed to hear. Aaron had never said them before, in this or any context. Missing her implied he thought about her when they were apart. Hadn’t she just ripped the rug out from under him with her pregnancy announcement? Yet, he admitted to missing her.
This wasn’t just a matter of growing feelings. There had to be more.
