Synopsis

When she receives the news in late 1944 that her baby's father was shot down in the South Pacific, Amelia Richards loses hope. Jobless and broke, she has nowhere to turn for help but her infant's paternal grandparents. The only problem is, they don't know that she—or their grandson—exists. When Amelia discovers that the family is wealthy and influential, dare she disclose the truth of her relationship with their son? Or could the celebration of the arrival of another unexpected baby nearly two thousand years ago be the answer to her dilemma?

3.5/5 A cute little novella, but I felt like the writing was a bit childish and the protagonist never really seems to be like, "Hey, this is a problem" in regards to sleeping with a guy she wasn't married to ... even though yeah it was. That said, it was mostly quite well handled.......more
