    When Natalia Hastings is paired with a handsome guy during a quirky photoshoot for the Paradise Beach tourism board, sparks don't just fly. They explode. But what if Mr. Right has more baggage than she can handle?
        
                                                                              *****
        
        Matthew Mancini is everything Natalia is looking for: gorgeous, smart and super sweet. But he's also a divorced single dad, and Natalia isn't sure she wants to be a mother, much less a stepmom. And when she discovers that Matthew has ties to the worst part of her past, she's forced to make a difficult choice... 
        
        This is Book Four in the Paradise Beach series. All of the books in this series can be read as standalone novels.
