What Love Can Be (Shelby Falls Series)

Successful attorney Mark Jansen would like nothing more than to settle down and have a family of his own. But after losing both of his parents in a fatal car crash when he was just seven years old, trusting his heart to someone else doesn’t come easy. That is until one night of passion when one woman manages to break down all of his defenses. But just as quickly as he falls for the sweet, sexy redhead with the unforgettable green eyes, things unravel—just like they always do.

However, fate isn’t finished with these two quite yet when, two years later, Mark realizes he may be a father. But he won’t know that for sure until he finds out the truth, and for that he needs to find the woman who stole his heart.

What he didn’t plan on was falling in love with her…a second time.
