'Twas the Night Before Mother's Day

Jocelyn Tavers faces her 26th birthday, falling on Mother's Day, at the same time as she wonders what happened to a certain officious lawman and a certain deserter father remembers her birthday after only fifteen years of neglect.

An ex-boyfriend and the appearance of a complete stranger are not the only obstacles to disrupt Gordon Fieldcott's book launch, especially when that stranger is her next editing assignment.

Jocelyn doesn't want anything to do with him.
