Tawny had grown up on the wrong side of the tracks and was used to never being enough to keep the attention of the people she loved most, so when she meets the drop-dead sexy wealthy owner of the diner she worked at for the first time and he suggests a strictly physical relationship between them, she takes him up on his proposition. But when she finds herself pregnant with his child and tells him the truth, she doesn't understand what went wrong or why he refuses to believe that the baby could possibly be his, immediately kicking her to the curb even after living together for nearly a year. With no place to go and no one to turn to, Tawny embarks on what's meant to be a new life, far away from the man she never should have allowed herself to fall in love with; determined to start over. So, when Jeremy shows up on her doorstep, demanding the truth and making outrageous decisions for her life even though he'd made it perfectly clear that he wanted nothing to do with her or the baby she carried, Tawny is thrown for a loop. She's afraid to trust Jeremy with her heart again after he crushed it the first time. Was it possible that this baby could really change things between them, or was he only playing her just until the baby was born so he could abscond with the one and only person Tawny had ever expected to eventually love her enough to stick around? Only time would tell!
