Expecting The CEO’s Child - Yvonne Lindsay Months after their passionate tryst, Dylan Lassiter can’t get Jenna Montgomery out of his mind.

But just as he’s gaining ground, the media unearths a shocking secret from the mother-to-be’s past. Now Dylan could lose the woman — and family — he wants more than anything...
