Heath lost his son some years back, and has isolated himself in his house ever since. Now he's expecting another child with a woman he had a casual fling with - and she's disappeared.Cassie is the investigator he hires to find her. But when the baby's mother reappears, only to drop the child off and leave again, Cassie finds herself staying for the sake of the baby - and for Heath.I'm in two minds about this book, and overall I think I liked it but not loved it. It was one of those books that kind of let me down halfway through. I thought it was going to be about one thing, and then it threw a curveball and turned into something totally different. Sometimes that's a good thing, but in this case it left me feeling quite flat and depressed. I liked Cassie's pragmatism and was drawn to Heath's tortured-soul demeanor, so I was expecting to love the book, but the twist with the baby wrecked it for me. Not one I'll read again. 3 stars (4 for the beginning, 2 for the ending).
