Renaissance musician Ed Barrett, one night of frolic leads to a detour she never expected. Could it also bring her the kind of love she never imagined? A busy autumn wedding season moves the Inn at Verde Springs into the black. Next up? Planning her sister Harper's April wedding at the Inn. But over-achiever Paige struggles with telling Mr. Renaissance Man that he's fathered a child until it's unavoidable. Even though Paige's lie-by-omission is unforgivable, Ed Barrett is excited to finally be a father. Then, when Paige's pregnancy turns high-risk, Ed sets his anger aside and follows his heart. As Paige and Ed navigate their precarious relationship, the imminent birth of their baby has the power to unite them or divide them. But for Paige, the future is clear: Ed is the man who makes everything work, not just for her, but for all of them. When a serious accident puts Ed's life at risk, Paige devotes herself to helping him through the crisis, and, finally, brings him home to the most healing place she knows: The Inn at Verde Springs. "Love Child" (Book 2, The Inn at Verde Springs Trilogy) celebrates the slow-simmering love between two strong people with a second chance to build a life, together.
