A hero's child

by Diana Whitney

SOMEBODY'S HERO... SOMEBODY'S CHILD Rae Hooper had loved only one man: Martin Manning. But her clean-cut warrior had marched off to glory a decade ago, never to return home. Luckily, he'd given her a child. But, sadly, little Martina would never know her daddy. But at ten, scrappy, freckle-faced Martina suddenly found a father figure. The mysterious drifter couldn't resemble Martin less, yet he stirred an eerily familiar hunger in Rae. He drew her like a bee to clover. They'd told her Martin was dead. But was her long-lost hero alive and well...and home to stay? The ups, the downs, the laughter and the tears...it's all a part of PARENTHOOD.
