BLURB
Sassy, successful Faith Brown has earned her place in the boardroom
through hard work and sheer ambition. Making family is not on her agenda when
there are businesses to develop and competitors to outdo. So when a casual
affair with smooth and irresistible tycoon Mark Essien leads to an unplanned
pregnancy, she’s determined not to make the mistakes her mother made by living
with a man just for the sake of her child.
For Mark, personal matters have no place in the boardroom. Spotting the
perfect opportunity, he ruthlessly launches a takeover bid for Faith’s Investment
Brokerage firm. Finding out he’ll soon be a father, he knows he can’t let the
indomitable and sexy Faith go through with her plans of single parenthood. All
gloves are off. He’ll seduce her by any tactic necessary if it means his child
doesn’t suffer the same stigma he did as a child.
With the media dogging their affairs in the boardroom and the bedroom,
they find that making family is harder than making scandal.

REVIEW
I was given book for honest review. Faith and Mark have differing views on the way to raise an unexpected child both views come from their own childhood experiences. Mark’s view a child needs both parents. Faith’s view one parent is enough. Read this romantic tale set in Africa to figure out who wins the parenting debate.

TEASERS
EXCERPT
Faith's cheeks
heated and she half-laughed, half-coughed in a self-conscious manner. Her body
still tingled as if it finally woke up from a long sleep. A really long sleep.
"Of course, I
wasn’t expecting that finally getting you to loosen up will get me so out of
control I was going to explode within seconds like a teenager."
How could he say
that or even expect her to believe it? In the past year, he hadn’t exactly been
lonely. Unlike her. He shouldn’t pretend this was more than it was. Sex. Lust.
That’s all they had.
She rolled over,
trying to cover herself up in a semblance of decency. The thought of him with
other women had her heart clenching tightly.
"If I believe
that, I’ll believe anything." She pulled herself up and away from him. "You
forget that your pictures have been splashed over the papers with different
women hanging on your arms this past year."
The mattress
depressed as he sat on the edge. Tendrils of his heat curled around her.
Breathing saturated her lungs with his spice. Need bubbled in her veins. She
closed her eyes, hating the tightness in her chest.
Remember, this is just sex. It doesn’t matter
how many women he’s been with this past year.
Bullshit. Her hands clenched into fists, tightening on the seams of her clothes.
"Yes, I’ve
attended events with women all because you refuse to be seen publicly with me.
I would rather have had you as my escort on those occasions."
Fingers, steel
bands, wrapped around her ankles and tugged. Eyes flying open, she gulped in
air and slid down the bed on her back until her legs straddled his hips. One by
one, he removed her shoes and massaged her bare feet. His fingers worked
blissful magic. She purred, to her dismay.
"But I haven’t
had sex with another woman since I met you at that conference in Jo’burg."
