New York Times best selling author Diana Palmer is back …

Billionaire oilman Blair Coleman puts his business first; having been used by women, his personal life is far from his priority. He knows only one person who has ever truly cared for him—but the blonde beauty is off limits as the daughter of his best friend.

Niki Ashton has seen Blair wounded and she's seen him fight. Blair is the strongest—and most stubborn—man she's ever known. That very heart and passion makes him the man of her dreams, but whenever they've been getting close, Blair has always pushed her away.

It takes a possible tragedy to change things. Now it's all or nothing: marriage, baby, family, forever. But will the choice be too much for Niki…or too late?
