There are certain words that have always described Cam Brantley: Town bad boy. Soldier. Protector. But never, ever dad. Until he returns home from his latest military tour to discover the girl he had one smoking-hot night with is now mom to the adorable two-year-old Zoey. Who has his eyes.

Plenty of words could describe Emma Walker these days. Mom, dutiful granddaughter, budding designer, the town's golden child. But when her longtime crush Cam Brantley comes back to town--and starts working on the very same property she's in charge of--she knows the perfect word to describe herself: screwed.

Cam's doing his best to learn all that daddy duty entails, but with every family outing, each day on the job together, and all the stolen kisses, he falls harder for Emma. He's determined to get over his past and be the man both girls need...now if only he can get Emma to believe it, too.
