Love and the reluctant mogul
A tragic accident has left software mogul Callan Tierney guardian to a young girl and caregiver to her elderly grandparents. But “family man” isn’t Callan’s strong suit and he chafes at his new responsibilities. Until he reluctantly accepts the help of Livi Camden—a one-night stand who’s haunted his dreams ever since...
Two months ago, widow Livi Camden finally let loose with one exotic Hawaiian night that left her breathless...and pregnant. Now, on a mission to make amends to a family her forbears have wronged, Livi finds herself helping her onetime tropical lover. As passion reignites, she hesitates to reveal her pregnancy. Is Callan willing to add “husband” and “daddy” to his list of family duties?
“Anyway,” he repeated, “now here we are...”
“Here we are,” Livi echoed.
“And I thought maybe we should talk about... you know... where we go now.”
He did meet her eyes then, and Livi responded with an acknowledging raise of her chin. But she didn’t say anything because she had no idea where they should go now—especially factoring in that pregnancy test she had in that bag in the trunk of her cousin’s car.
“How about we just put it behind us?” he suggested then. “Forget it happened. Start fresh...”
Easy for him to say.
“You want to help Greta,” he went on, “and now she’s kind of my job—her and the Tellers—so we’ll be seeing each other. But Hawaii was... well...”
A one-night stand? A vacation fling? Pure stupidity on her part? Yes, what exactly should they call it?
As bad as the past two months had been for Livi, this was worse. This was excruciating. It felt like a brush-off. As if he was telling her that even though they’d slept together, he didn’t want there to be anything more than that.
And while she certainly didn’t, either, it was still a rejection. One she hadn’t signed on for because she hadn’t so much as entertained the idea of Hawaii going anywhere further.

The Camdens of Colorado: They’ve made a fortune in business. Can they make it in the game of love?
After years of grieving the loss of her soul mate, Livi Camden has done something completely out of character. An attempt to escape the pain of a lonely wedding anniversary led to a night of abandon in the arms of a stranger. Filled with regret, now not only is she afraid she’s pregnant, that man has suddenly come back into her life.
Software mogul Callan Tierney already has his hands full when he reconnects with the beauty he had to run out on. The former bad boy has lost his two best friends and inherited their nine-year-old daughter and her grandparents.
There couldn’t be a worse time for Livi and Callan’s paths to cross again, let alone for them to sort through what happened in Hawaii—the results of which Livi is keeping secret until she decides if Callan should be told at all.
Will she or won’t she tell him? Can Callan handle any more? Those are questions that have to be answered amid the memories of their amazing night together. But it was an amazing night...
Hope you enjoy finding out what happens!
Happy Reading,
