When the opportunity to have Emma Cooper in his bed surfaces, Dr. Noah Kerrigan jumped all in. That one night changed everything, leaving Emma with a secret pregnancy she wanted to desperately hide. Especially from her brother.

As Noah fights to claim the family with her he never thought he'd have, a woman obsessed with him seeks revenge?with Emma in her crosshairs. And when a hurricane hits Cypress Bay, Noah must save the family he always wanted before it's too late.
