    Synopsis

    She's having a baby! Darby Parker Conrad was the town widow--a sweet, single mother of twin girls. John Sparks was the town sheriff--a former bad boy and her late husband' best friend. And now, three months after one secret night of passion, they were the talk of the town.

    John was going to be a father!

    And a husband too, if only Darby would say yes. But the headstrong beauty was convinced he was only asking because she was carrying their baby. And though that might have been true at first, the confirmed bachelor soon realized he was falling for his best friend's widow....

    October 11, 2002: Erick Conrad died heroically as a firefighter in a tragic blaze. He left behind a wife Darby and twin six-year-old daughters. Nine months after his death, Darby and Erick?s best friend Old Orchard County, Ohio Sheriff John Sparks share one night of passion as both sought solace in the other?s arms due to mourning their loss. Afterward and feeling guilty, John and Darby agree to cool their romance. Three months later, Darby informs John that she is pregnant. Initially taken aback, John wants to do the right thing for Darby, the two girls, and their unborn child. He proposes marriage, but Darby retains feelings of betraying Erick. Besides she knows marriage needs more than his willingness to take culpability and his feelings of responsibility to hold it together. However, John always desired Darby, but hid his feelings when his buddy pursued her. He loves her and Erick?s kids, but can she really hear his heart when she believes she was unfaithful to Erick and must force herself to ignore her own love for the sheriff? WHAT A WOMAN WANTS is a deep romantic triangle in which the third participant is the convergent memories of a loved one. The story line has been used before, but feels fresh because Tori Carrington does not demean any of the three key players to make a second chance at love easier to attain. John and Darby seem human with strengths and frailties and their memories of Erick paint a picture of a caring individual. Readers will delight in this warm contemporary romance from Team Carrington who seem to consistently know what the audience wants. Harriet Klausner
