He needed to hear her secret.
He wasn’t in the best of moods, but she had to tell him. She had to tell him now while there was still time….
“I have something to tell you, Nick.” She stood up even though her knees were shaking as much as her voice.
“You’re trembling like a leaf,” Nick said softly, then gently settled her on the sofa. He squatted down beside her, bringing his blue eyes level with hers.
This revelation was going to be difficult. She drew a deep breath and closed her eyes. She opened her mouth to reveal the one thing her husband didn’t want to hear.
“Nick, I’m pregnant….”

Chapter One
Andrea Bainbridge peered through the sheets of rain deluging her windshield and prayed she’d make it to Aunt Bess’s house before her car was swept off the road. She could barely see the pavement. Only the center white line kept her on track.
Afraid to go above a snail’s pace, Andrea thought she’d never reach the long drive that led to Aunt Bess’s farmhouse. When she finally saw the outline of the familiar mailbox through the pouring rain, she turned her car into the drive with relief and then panicked as the wheels skidded beneath her.
Mud wasn’t the right description for what was under her car now. Maybe quicksand would be better. Or shifting sands. Or—
Stop it, Andy! You’re getting hysterical!
With good reason, she argued with herself. Aunt Bess had called her three hours ago, complaining of chest pains. Andrea hadn’t been able to convince the stubborn old lady to go to the hospital without her. Bess had assured her she could wait until Andrea arrived.
Normally she could make the drive in a little less than two hours. But these conditions weren’t normal. It had been raining day and night for almost a month. Andrea knew how Noah had felt. All the rivers and streams had flooded days ago. There was only one road to Bess’s farm which was still above water.
And she wasn’t sure how much longer it would be open. She’d been petrified when she’d crossed that one-lane wooden bridge.
