Martha Russel is recently widowed and is set to lose everything unless she miraculously finds herself pregnant with an heir. She decides to try and make it happenn after the fact with the delicious Theo. Theo is more than happy to help the lovely widow with her plan to have a baby - but didn't expect it to be so hard. Martha is dead set to dislike him and all the time they must spend together. He must find a way into her heart, because she quickly found a way into his.

Theo was an interesting character. Always talked about as a rogue, he had a very gentlemanly quality that he was almost afraid to let show. Martha was a bit annoying at times. She was so dead set against ever being happy, that she didn't really notice that she was. A few twists and turns to keep the reader interesting, but I wish there had been more development in Martha earlier in the book.
