Some people created haunting melodies, some saw hope in a far-off land. Owain O'Neill couldn't pinpoint the urge that led him to Belle River, Wisconsin, to see for himself the child he'd created. He only knew he was glad the child turned out to be twins who were healthy and happy. And that their mother turned out to be Cara Williams.

A quick look and then he'd be gone. That was what Owain had promised himself. But Cara--funny, warm and so easy to love--kept Owain bound to the little town long after it was safe for him to be there.
