SHE HAD HIS BROTHER'S CHILD
Schemer. Seductress. Deceiver. The minute he'd laid eyes on her, Joe Douglass knew what kind of woman Lissa Gray was. He would never forgive her for betraying his brother ... or for keeping his baby niece a secret from him. And he'd never expected the explosive passion Lissa aroused--he couldn't deny it, and it was impossible to resist....
Lissa quickly realized that Joe would never believe a single good thing about her! But his "loving" brother hadn't even cared that she might have been pregnant, and now Joe wanted to claim the little girl. True, he could give the baby a good life--what was she but a working mom trying to make ends meet?--but what about love?

Look, I don't care that your brother died and you believe that his mistress ruined his marriage, nor do I care that you're angry that that mistress never let you know that she had your brother's child. All that jazz doesn't give you an excuse to go all asshole over the woman, refuse to listen to her, and start managing her life as if you own her. You're an asshole Joe, and I don't care how many nice things you did for Lissa later on, you're still an asshole.
And you, if you have a child you want to take care of, you can't be so big a doormat. If someone treats you like this, you get a restraining order, you don't let him manage your life, no matter how attractive he might be. Even attractive bastards are bastards.
Let us say I both hated the hero (Ha! please) and heroine in this, and felt like neither redeemed themselves by the end. At the other hand, maybe they deserved each other.
