That awkward moment when an ER doctor has to inform you that you’re pregnant…with his baby. Three things Lynsey Jones knows about the hot doctor: he’s grouchy, an arrogant jerk, and strangely obsessed with pie. Three things Dr. Dick knows: he doesn’t talk about his past, he doesn’t do relationships, and the crazy girl in the hospital cafeteria who ate a fistful of French silk pie…is annoyingly irresistible. After a chance meetup at a bar and a heated cab ride together, things come to a head and now instead of hating each other, they’re horizontal in a bed. Three months later, the weird cafeteria stalker who crept out of Dr. Dick’s house like a thief in the night, winds up as his patient in the ER after her Tinder date from hell. Dr. Dick is prepared to keep it cool and professional. That is until her bloodwork reveals that she’s pregnant. What really throws him for a loop…is that the surprise baby…is his.

I have a week off and a leave pass burning a hole in my pocket. I should go home to Conception Ridge. I head there, but when the exit on the highway comes up, I keep on driving to Virgin Peak, and my cabin on a mountain lake. I don’t expect to find a squatter. Or to immediately have a visceral connection to the young woman, who refuses to tell me her name. And despite the fact I’m a big guy, a Navy SEAL, she seems to trust me. We have five days together. Five nights, too, and I’ll use every second to forge a stronger bond between us. Before I leave this island, I will know her name—and give her mine, if she’ll have me. Operation: Wife Her Up is underway, and I never fail in my mission.

But then circumstance forced me together with a big, annoying purple monster who’s arrogant and bossy and pushes all my buttons in the worst—and best—ways.
