The Baby Plan 

 

What he wants...

...is a baby. A child of his own. Jake Manning more or less raised his younger siblings; he loves kids and knows he's a natural father. However, he's had zero success as a husband. So he comes up with a baby plan, one that requires a woman, but not a wife.

What she needs...

...is money. Security. An education. A home. Harley Emerson might be a crack mechanic, but a flase conviction makes jobs hard to come by. She has no family and few friends. Jake's proposition offers her a way to get what she needs. But before she'll agree to have his baby, Harley insists on two things: a marriage of concenience and an "old-fashioned" conception.

What they find...

...is love. Neither of them expected it. Neither knows what to do with it. But sometimes plans change -- for the better. Sometimes you need more than you want -- and want more than you need.
