Zora’s life falls apart at her husband’s funeral when she meets an older woman holding a baby. The woman says the child in her arms is Zora’s late husband’s. Is she telling the truth?
Or are there more surprising secrets waiting for Zora? Zora stared at the last moments of her husband’s funeral. She couldn’t believe Talon was gone.
He’d died in a car accident. A week had passed, but she still felt him near her. How could he be gone forever?
With a heavy heart, she walked toward the cemetery gate, telling herself she needed to figure out what to do with her life now. Suddenly, an older woman with a baby stood in her path. “Are you Zora?” the woman asked as the baby in her arms whimpered.
Zora didn’t know her. Who was this stranger? “I am.
Who are you?” Zora answered. Zora’s heart sank when the woman, named Corin, said the baby was Talon’s child. “You’re the only one who can take care of this child now,” Corin told her.

But when Zora opened her car door, she froze. The same baby was lying in the back seat, crying softly. Zora looked around.
Corin was nowhere in sight. “How did this baby get here?” she wondered. It was cold outside, so Zora took off her jacket and wrapped it around the little one.
Then she stopped dead when she saw a birthmark on the baby’s neck. “This can’t be real,” she whispered. The birthmark was just like Talon’s.
Zora didn’t want to think her husband had cheated. But now, she had to know the truth. She needed to find out if Talon had betrayed her.
Zora drove home with the baby, grabbed some of Talon’s hair from his brush, and went to a hospital. “Hi, I need a paternity test,” she told the woman at the front desk. “Sure, ma’am.
