Synopsis

Friendship has boundaries...doesn't it? Melissa Lopez is a doctor at the medical clinic Kyle Davenport runs. They work together, spend off-hours having fun together -- they're friends. It was never supposed to happen, but one hot summer night they give in to the secret attraction they feel for each other -- and Melissa becomes pregnant with Kyle's child. They want to give their baby the best life possible. Which means TWO full-time parents. They're not in love, though, so maybe a wedding, shotgun-style, is the solution. Romance won't figure in the bargain -- just mutual support, respect and convenience. Soon their safe, tidy arrangement is less than satisfying. But they can have more -- if they're willing to face old fears. If they're willing to risk REAL commitment. Their own happiness depends on it. More important, they need to take that chance -- because of the baby.
