Their unexpected family
Ellie Thomas was meant to be a surrogate mother to the baby growing inside her, but when her best friend abandons her, everything changes. The moment her son is born, Ellie knows she could never give him up! But the one person she can turn to for help is the doctor who delivered her child.
Dr. Luke Gilmore didn’t have a picture-perfect childhood, but he instinctively wants to protect Ellie and her baby. He was only passing through, but he may have just found a reason to stay…
Have you ever been blindsided by something? Something totally unexpected that was huge enough to change your life for ever?
If you have, I really hope it wasn’t something awful—like an accident or a house fire—but something amazing—like meeting the gaze of the love of your life for the first time. Sometimes, though, even a disaster can turn out to be the catalyst for something much better to take its place.
I blindsided my heroine, Ellie, in this story more than once. I gave her a baby she never expected to have to raise. And then I burned her house down!
I guess I blindsided my hero, Luke, as well—but that was a much more gradual process and it took him a long time to realise that it had happened.
And it was definitely something amazing! :)
I do hope you enjoy reading this story as much as I loved writing it.
With love,

HOW COULD SO many things have gone so terribly, terribly wrong?
Ellie Thomas could feel the shape of the phone she was holding against her ear. The edges felt sharper as her grip tightened. They were tangible and real.
What she was hearing couldn’t possibly be real.
Could it...?
‘Ava—are you still there?’
A moment’s silence and then she heard her friend’s voice again. Her best friend since...since as long as she could remember. A bond that had lasted throughout childhood. Through the trauma of Ava’s surgery and chemotherapy as a teenager. With happy
