Laine Ransom wanted a wife and child to love. The doctor's told him he couldn't have any children. His family decided to give him a cruise trip as a birthday present. On this trip, is where he met Regis Melbourne. Regis owned a beauty salon in California. Her sister Sabrina gave her the tickets for the cruise. Regis was reluctant to go on the trip, but went to please her sister. She met Laine Ransom and fell in love. Laine and Regis got married and that when all their misunderstandings started. Regis ends up pregnant, but when she tells Laine, he doesn't believe her. The doctor's told him he couldn't get a woman pregnant because of his love sperm count. He and Regis had to struggle to get back to each other. Everytime it seemed they were going to get back together, something would happen. I love the Ransom family. They are a loving family from the mother Amanda to the baby girl Elle. Each family member is unique. If you aren't familiar with them, you should start with the book Forever Always, Heart to Heart. Ray Ransom is in the book Hidden Blessings, which was published right before Forever Always. These stories are definitely keepers. Don't miss out, get familiar with them for yourself.
