THE ODDS ARE ALWAYS AGAINST HER ... But this time Tessa Jamison isn't leaving River Bluff, Texas, until she finds what she came for: the father of her sister's two-year-old son. And the stand-in Santa at the local church bazaar could be the man she's looking for. Cole Lawry seems an unlikely candidate for instant daddy. What's more, the divorced ex-businessman and consummate poker player insists he's not a father —- never has been, never plans to be. Until Tessa calls his bluff. Which means gambling everything she's got. Including her heart.
