A Mother for Jeffrey

by Trisha Alexander

THE CHILD SHE ALWAYS WANTED Once, Leslie Marlowe had had high hopes for her future -- a man to love and lots of babies. But when those dreams faded, she tried to convince herself that she didn't need a family of her own. Then eleven-year-old Jeffrey Canfield walked into her life -- followed quickly by his handsome father. THE WOMAN HE COULDN'T FORGET Brian Canfield knew that his son's friendship with Leslie spelled trouble. Only problem was, when he tried to put an end to it, he found himself falling for her as well. And that was something this veteran of heartbreak just couldn't let happen. Because it was bad enough that Jeffrey was starting to look on Leslie as a potential mother -- but was Brian starting to see her as a second-chance bride?
