They named it anything but love. After a failed marriage to a domineering man, Erin refuses to be controlled by anything or anyone. That includes Seth, the father of her baby—a man who was supposed to be only a one-night-stand, a man who’s used to always getting his way. There’s a reason that Seth Thomas, a successful defense attorney, is often referred to as the Bulldozer. If something needs to happen, he makes it happen. That includes being part of his baby’s life—even if he never expected to be a father, even if Erin doesn’t really trust him. They’ll work out an arrangement in the best interest of their baby—and if they occasionally have sex, well, that’s just an added perk—but they both agree on one thing. What they have will never be love.

Erin thought she reached a hard-won happy ending. She has a sexy, successful husband, two beautiful daughters, and a life of ease and luxury. She adores her husband, but she never sees him anymore, and he seems to drift farther away every day. She loves being a mother, but she wants to be Erin too—and she doesn't think she is anymore. She and Seth have never stopped loving each other. It's just that love can be harder than she thought. Sequel to Nameless.

Seventeen years ago, a one-night stand between Erin and Seth led to an accidental pregnancy, which led to partnership, then to love, then to marriage, then to family. Through all of that, their lives have never gotten less complicated. Now their daughters are teenagers, and they have to adjust to a new stage of life. Incarnate is a slice-of-life novella that is best read after the preceding books about Erin and Seth—Nameless and Christening.
