Bound by the Baby
Singer Melody Caldwell has given guarded entrepreneur Kyle Tailor months to take their relationship from casual to serious—and run smack into the wall around his heart. But fate has intervened—because Melody’s pregnant.
Jealousy. Fear. Amazement. Kyle doesn’t know how to feel about Melody’s news. He’s been holding back to protect himself. But when a mysterious someone takes too great an interest in Kyle’s woman and unborn child, it forces Kyle’s hand. If the millionaire hopes to keep what’s his, he has to stake his claim now...with all his heart and soul.
The Heir Affair is part of the Las Vegas Nights series.
“My feelings for you haven’t changed.”
“You can’t seriously believe that’s true,” Melody said.
“I want you in my life. I want to be there for our baby. How do you see your future?”
“Honestly, I sort of go back and forth—wanting us to be a happy family but thinking it might be better if I raise this baby on my own.”
“Because...” If he asked her whether she was in love with someone else and she told him yes, Kyle wasn’t sure what he’d do.
“Because it hurts too much when I think how much I love you and wonder if you’ll ever feel the same about me.”

Kyle Tailor sat on the couch beside his business partner and best friend from high school, Trent Caldwell. It was Thanksgiving. On the great room’s sixty-inch television, an interdivisional grudge match was happening between the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings. Kyle wasn’t following the action. His gaze was locked on Trent’s sister.
Until she came along, solitude had never bothered him. In most ways it was simpler to live on his own without someone else’s physical or emotional clutter. To find himself needing Melody had been a shock to his system.
Now, he didn’t sleep well without her beside him. Since she’d been gone, he slogged through business meetings and routine activities in a foggy daze, unable to concentrate or care. He missed her hugs. Her way of teasing him. He’d lost weight, had stopped working out and lost an unacceptable amount of money in the casinos in the month since he’d come to Las Vegas to temporarily
