Blake Dalton, CFO of Dalton International of Oklahoma City
and his twin, Alex who is CEO of DI, are attempting to
uncover the paternity for the infant left on their
doorstep. Molly, 6 months old is proven 99.99% to be a
Dalton; but which brother actually fathered the girl is
unknown. What is known is that a nanny is needed to help
care for Molly.
Grace Templeton applies for the nanny position but does not
reveal that Molly is in fact her cousin's infant. Grace
made a deathbed promise to her cousin Hope (aka Anne) to
take Molly to the real father, and not to reveal which twin
is the father, and lastly to keep secret her desperate
flee from Jack Petrie, her abusive and dangerous husband.
Hope had changed her name and all legal documents, and had
been working at DI when becoming pregnant with Molly under
her assumed name and then met her tragic fate. Searching
for the facts surrounding Molly, Blake hires a detective
and uncovers the relationship between Molly, Hope and
Grace. Blake then decides to marry Grace but both know the
arrangement is dangerous and they are playing with their
true feelings of desire for each other.
The emotional tie Grace has developed with Molly becomes
her whole focus in life. When she falls for the sexy and
virile Blake, she actually has hope that she might gain a
real family and become mother to the child she desperately
loves.
THE PATERNITY PROMISE has loads of mystery and suspense
surrounding Grace's attempt to protect Molly. I thoroughly
enjoyed THE PATERNITY PROMISE. The quick paced short story
kept my constant attention
"You're the father."
After leaving her late cousin's baby on the Dalton
doorstep, Grace Templeton poses as a nanny to discover
which of the billionaire twins is the father. Grace
promised to protect the child, but she didn't plan to fall
for the seductive brother she learns is the daddy.
For single dad Blake, there's only one priority—protecting
his daughter from whatever secrets Grace won't reveal.
He'll get the truth from her—any way he can. And until she
talks, he'll keep the temptress at his side all day…all
night.
Not as the nanny, but as his wife!
