Mandy Keeling, while on her way to a job interview is overcome by morning sickness in an elevator. She manages to keep it down but, the gorgeous man on the elevator with her just happens to be none other than Damien "Demon" Sharpton, the very man her interview is scheduled with.

Damien is just as horrified, being totally clueless as to what to do for this very sick woman. Despite the interview ending with Mandy throwing up in his wastebasket, he does hire her as his assistant.

He's grateful that he has found someone so efficient. Only...he never sees her as their communication is done by IM and e-mail. He has no way of knowing that she's purposefully avoiding him so he won't notice her slowly expanding waistline.

She desperately needs this job for the health insurance and regular hours so she can easily arrange day care. Damien wants to spend more time with her and insists that she accompany him on a trip to the Caribbean. Mandy doesn't want to go, not only for the risk of Damien seeing her in a swimsuit, but because she has been having highly erotic dreams about him.

Soon the two of them are playing games, both innocent resort games and more erotic private games. Eventually Damien finds out about Mandy's pregnancy; when he fully understands the reasons behind her secrecy, he cannot believe that the father could abandon her the way he did.

Despite the intense sexual attraction between her and Damien, Mandy is worried about what the future will hold for her and her baby. Damien is sure that he isn't able to maintain a lasting love since his heart and soul were shattered when his wife was murdered.

I was able to polish this fast paced story is a day!
