Romance Series

A gorgeous hunk of a man and a billionaire to boot shows up in the Oklahoma Panhandle to seek out Julie Bartlett, partner of Agro-Air. Julie is a top notch pilot working extremely hard to make a go of her partnership as they perform their business of crop dusting. Alex Dalton is convinced their one night stand with Julie produced the infant daughter that was left on his mother's doorstep. After the DNA results return of 70% in favor of either Alex or his twin Blake being the father of Molly, the baby is now firmly ensconced in their lives. Both brothers are secretly hoping to be the father of this beautiful baby girl. Coercing Julie to return to Oklahoma City with an offer of merging Agro-Air with Dalton Int., the intent is also to test her DNA. Surprising Alex, Julie offers up a sample the first day to bring the matter to an end that she is definitely not Molly's mother. Neither Julie nor Alex intends to pick up where they left off a year ago with the hot and sweaty sex. Julie fears she doesn't fit in with their life style nor abides easily with Alex's personality of having the final word. Proud and determined to make her own way, it will take her partner's interceding to make things happen. Reading THE PATERNITY PROPOSTION was pure pleasure. Taking two very strong willed and independent adults creates a very difficult situation and takes real love to concur the obstacles. Julie is an exceptional pilot and has to weigh the possibility that Alex will demand she give it up. Alex, even though extremely rich, is a dynamic personality who does have the ability to look beyond the power that he wields. I would definitely read everything she writes if they are all as fun and interesting to read as this book was.

When a paternity test proves inconclusive, he needs Julie's DNA to determine if it is Alex or his twin brother who's now a father. But when Julie refuses to cooperate, Alex vows to tempt her into giving him everything he wants.
