But when Darcy Cooper arrives at Marlowe Downs with a shocking accusation, Lachlan's world is thrown into chaos. It's not just because Darcy is the most beautiful woman he's ever seen, it's because she claims he's the father of her late sister's baby and must provide for his son financially. Lachlan is stunned - he's never even met this sister, let alone fathered a child with her. Is this some kind of sick joke, or is Darcy a cunning fraudster looking to cash in? Darcy is determined to make Lachlan face the truth. Her beloved sister revealed on her deathbed that Lachlan was the father of her son, and there's no way she would have lied. But Lachlan refuses to take responsibility, and Darcy won't back down. She's traveled over three hundred miles through the harsh outback to make sure Lachlan does right by his son, and she won't leave until he does.
