Visit Mercy, Indiana, hometown USA, where life may be slower, but love grows strong. In THE DADDY'S PROMISE, Shirley Jump makes you homesick for a town that welcomes the lost and the loveless, and helps them to heal.

Anita Ricardo gave up her fast paced job in LA and drove half-way across the country to reach Mercy. With every mile she promised her unborn child this trip wasn't about her former boss or the sizzling kiss they'd shared in his office over a year ago. No, this trip was about starting over, and finding a home. So, why was Anita pushing the last mile out of the Honda in her determination to reach Luke Dole's hometown?

Luke Dole has struggled for two years to get his life back on track, and to connect with his twelve-year-old daughter after his wife's death. Anita Ricardo appears at his door in a pouring rain storm, charms his daughter into a normal conversation, and shocks Luke out of his mind. Anita, beautiful, bright, efficient, and his partner in a kiss that has filled his dreams for a year, is sitting at his kitchen table dripping wet and very pregnant.

In a heartwarming story that proves sometimes love is just meant to be, three people find themselves making a family for an unborn child. Shirley Jump will have you laughing and crying in this tale about finding true love. Be sure to read, THE DADDY'S PROMISE...a great way to celebrate Father's Day, and catch up on Luke's family.
