Brides of Haven, Book 2
She’s his best friend…but hiding a secret that will either bind them together or tear them apart forever.
Once bitten, twice shy, Houston Carson has no interest in marriage and children. After losing his mom, he understands his dad’s desperation for grandkids, but he won’t bend to the man’s emotional manipulation—or the hefty bribe. He’ll leave tying the knot and carrying on the family legacy to his brothers, thank you very much.
Houston’s best friend and local librarian, Allison “Al” O’Connor, has had a secret crush on him since the second grade. But he’s always seen her strictly as a pal, never an alluring, sensual woman, dying to be his in every way. When she schemes to show him what he’s missing out on, the innocent virgin falls even more in love.
But after a passionate night together, will Houston still want Al after she tells him she has a nine-month surprise for him?
