The Billionaire's Desire: His Baby
“I'm Izzy, an ordinary girl working as a full-time nurse throughout the week. On the weekends, I go out clubbing with my colleagues. One night, I chose to leave the club early on my own. I was attacked as I passed by an ally, so I screamed for help. A stranger who I later learn is billionaire Luke DeVille, comes to my aid. He was stunning, and I owed him a lot, though I doubted I'd ever see him again. One night though, I got invited to his VIP suite at the club. All I wanted to do was thank him, yet one thing lead to another and I found myself naked in his arms. However, I hadn't felt bad about it. I had never slept with anyone better. So what was wrong? Intoxicated, I hadn't even considered wearing protection. Now, here I am two months later, expecting his child... And he's clueless.”
