Baby on the Way - Welcome to Cauldron!, #1

They were alone together during a three-day blizzard. They had to stay warm, didn't they?

Elizabeth "Libby" Sinclair has everything figured out: a Victorian attic apartment in small-town Cauldron far from her indifferent mother; a job at a local store; and a plan to raise her baby solo—without the man who left his "emergency contact information" seven months ago then disappeared.

Del Delaney has spent his adult life avoiding commitments. But when he shows up uninvited at Libby's surprise shower and she pretends they're strangers—while trying to hide her baby bump with a throw pillow—the truth hits him. She never called. That's his baby. The woman he hasn't been able to forget is about to become a mother without him.

Not. Happening.

Suddenly he's measuring her belly with pink yarn while half the town speculates about the father. He becomes her birthing coach, her personal chef, her rodent-removal service—whatever she needs.

But Libby needs more than good intentions, and Del's still figuring out how to be a present father with a job that keeps him gone. He needs her to believe he can be dependable—before their baby arrives.

Libby won't marry him out of obligation, but winning her heart? That's going to take more than charm and home-cooked chicken dinners.
