Successful Texas billionaire Logan Barnes inherited the Barnes Denim Factory from his deceased father. Logan is completely devoted to his infant son, Daniel, whose mother died of cancer. Being a preemie, Daniel requires special care, so Logan has employed Gina Rigoletti of the Baby Grows practice at the Family Tree Health Center in Sagebrush. But Gina and Logan have a history, which complicates matters.

Fourteen years ago, Gina walked out on the Barnes heir for reasons unknown to Logan. With Gina's PhD and specialty in pediatric physical therapy, she has moved back to Sagebrush to open Baby Grows. Treating Daniel becomes difficult with the secrets between Gina and Logan as she hides the truth surrounding the events leading up to her fast departure all those years ago. Nor does Logan know the devastating and life changing secret of what happened to Gina while at college in Connecticut that prevented her from returning to Texas until now. They must learn to juggle Daniel's treatment while sorting through the guilt of their previous decisions, as well as their still present attractions, in determining what their futures hold.

Karen Rose Smith has created a cute and heartfelt story of two very caring people totally captivated by a small baby. Their history from the past hinders their present relationship and leaves them saddled with a vast amount of soul searching. The characters are warm and loving albeit torn apart by the circumstances. This is a story to keep your interest throughout.

Book Summary

Secrets and Forgiveness

Gina Rigoletti and Logan Barnes met on the Barnes estate when Gina was 18 and Logan 22. Gina's desire to be the first college graduate in her family (she won a scholarship to an Eastern college) as well as a threat from Logan's father persuaded her to walk away from Logan, though she loved him deeply.

The night Gina left, Logan and his father argued and Elliot Barnes had a stroke. Afterward Logan decided to forget Gina and build his dad's empire to make his father proud of him. Logan took his time falling in love again. When he did marry, tragedy struck and his wife died to save their child.

Now a pediatric physical therapist and baby development expert, Gina returns to Sagebrush. A friend and fate push her into Logan's life once more as she helps his son. Little Daniel was a preemie whose development has been slow. At fourteen months he is not yet walking and Logan searches for help. As he and Gina reunite, memories and emotions are intense between them. Logan doesn't know Gina holds two secrets: the reason she left as well as the reason she didn't return--a date rape that changed the course of her life.

Both Logan and Gina have to face their pasts to find a future together. Can love truly conquer all?
