It Started With A Pregnancy. Christy Jeffries

      

      It isn’t puppy love.

      But when one night leads to babies on the way, is a forever family far behind?

      Animal rescue director Rebekah Taylor isn’t a pet person—or the family type. But now she’s pregnant and a newbie parent to an adventure-loving stray dog nobody can catch. Kind of like Grant Whitaker, the fancy-free tech consultant who’s not your typical daddy-to-be. Except this dude’s sticking around. Can Grant persuade Rebekah to trust in him and the future they’ve started creating together?

      CHRISTY JEFFRIES graduated from the University of California, Irvine, with a degree in criminology, and received her Juris Doctor from California Western School of Law. But drafting court documents and working in law enforcement was merely an apprenticeship for her current career in the dynamic field of mummyhood and romance writing. She lives in Southern California with her patient husband, two energetic sons and one sassy grandmother. Follow her online at christyjeffries.com.

      To Patty Kawano Barberio. Thank you for taking a

      young and sometimes smart-mouthed girl under your

      wing and being a bonus role model. You showed me

      how to shop for jewellery, how to play blackjack, how

      to travel independently and how to love dogs again.

      Most importantly, you showed me how to be kind

      to others. You are the heart of my hearts.
