“Have you always been this much of a skeptic? Or do babies make you that nervous?”
“Come on,” Eric said. “You waltz into my life with some crazy story about a sister I never knew I had? Wouldn’t you have some doubts, too? A desperate woman looking to find a decent home for her baby can come up with a very convincing lie.”
She leveled him a look that would have made most men back off in a hurry. “I personally guarantee that if you don’t want to raise the girls for any reason at all, they will always have a good home—with me.”
The intensity of her words brought him up short. This woman was not fooling around. “You want to adopt the twins?”
“With all my heart.” A fine sheen of tears appeared in her eyes, but she didn’t let them spill over.
“Then why did you bother to track me down? I never would have known otherwise.”
“Because I promised I would.”

Chapter One
“I’m going to be a father.”
Still stunned by the news, Sheriff Eric Oakes sat down heavily in the swivel chair behind his desk, trying to figure out how it had happened. Or if it could possibly be true.

“Hey, I didn’t even know you were seeing anyone. How come you’re keeping secrets from—”
“No, it’s not like that. It’s like—” He was stammering almost as much as the woman who’d called him with the news a few minutes ago. “They’re my sister’s kids.” Three months old, the woman had said.
Rory frowned, and a hank of his dark hair slid across his forehead. In a futile gesture, he shoved it back into place. “Have you been nipping at that bottle you keep in your bottom desk drawer? You don’t have a sister. Two brothers, me and Walker. Unless ol’ Sharpy has had a sex change I don’t know about—”
“No, that’s not it.” Eric pushed back from his desk, stood and paced across the room to look out the window onto
