A not-so-secret baby?

Since their impulsive night of passion, widower Flynn O’Grady has visualized countless scenarios of seeing Darcie Moretti again. He’d imagined running into her at the grocery store, or maybe spotting her across a crowded room. Never in his wildest dreams did this single dad imagine he would look up during a Daddy Club meeting to see her waddling—er, walking—back into his life, pregnant with his child.

Now Darcie is here, beautiful and glowing and carrying a secret that was never really a secret at all. Flynn is a man who loves deeply, who puts family above everything, who would move mountains for the people he calls his own. And this baby? This baby is absolutely his.

Darcie knows exactly how Flynn’s honorable mind works. He’ll insist on doing the right thing. He’ll offer marriage without hesitation, without question—because that’s the kind of man he is. Strong. Steady. Dependable.

But dependable isn’t the same as in love.

Darcie wants more than a proposal born out of obligation and a sense of duty. She wants the whole dream—the kind of love that keeps you up at night and makes you smile for no reason at all. She deserves a man who chooses her, not just the situation.

So she’s giving Flynn four short months to figure it out. Four months to look past the pregnancy, past the responsibility, and straight into his own heart. Because somewhere in there are three little words that could change everything.

The question is whether he’ll find them in time.
