Hopelessly Devoted to You — Tressie Lockwood

All Raina can think about is the possibility that she might be pregnant, but her boyfriend tells her to get rid of it if it's true. Angry and hurt, she goes to confront him at his brother's house only to find he's been killed in a car accident. Stunned and grieving more because her baby will be born without a father than the loss of a man she only now realizes wasn't right for her, Raina accepts comfort from Hunter, her late boyfriend's brother.

But Hunter and she have never gotten along. Hunter is ex-military, rigid, and condescending. He never seemed to feel Raina was good enough for his brother despite the fact that she busted her butt for her masters degree and was making something of her life. Raina can't understand why Hunter would now be the one to support her and even ask to be named as the baby's father.

Hunter doesn't care how long Raina fights him. He will be there for her and the baby. He knows he made the wrong choices before his brother passed allowing Raina to see only a cold exterior. The truth is from the moment he laid eyes on her, he was lost. He has to win her heart or lose the woman he's been hopelessly devoted to for years. The challenge is not managing Raina but loving her. If he can find the balance, just maybe she'll run into his arms where she belongs.
