Give & Take

By V.M. Rheault

She can't leave if she's already gone.

Jack

My 45th birthday is next week, and I want a baby. I ask Emma Cox, my personal assistant, to surrogate for me.

I've always had feelings for her, but I never wanted to acknowledge them because I'll never get married.

I think she's crazy when she accepts my terms on the condition we spend time with our friends and families so our child will have a support system without her.

What I didn't understand was Emma wasn't doing it for our baby. She was doing it to show me what I could have if I put the past behind me.

Something I will never be able to do, no matter how much I love her.

Emma

I've been in love with billionaire Jack Durand since the day I met him. I didn't want to be the office clich and kept my feelings to myself.

When he asks me to surrogate, against everyone's advice, I say yes. I want to use the time with him to make him fall in love with me.

I didn't realize how deeply his rocky childhood hurt him, and I should break our contract before he breaks my heart.

Author's Note: This is the first book in a completed trilogy. Jack and Emma's story ends happily, but this book does have a storyline that carries through to books two and three. I hope you enjoy, and thank you for reading
