Michael's Family

by Kathryn Shay

The last thing widower Luke Rayburn expects--or welcomes--is his adopted son Michael's request to find his birth mother. Sixteen years ago, the adoption was arranged by Luke's mother and her closest friend, whose teenage daughter was pregnant. The two women agreed to cut all ties. Now the boy's request has brought beautiful, haunted Meredith Hunter into their lives. And with Meredith comes a secret that could destroy them all.
