Caroline Prater: A lost twin. A widow. A pregnant woman.

When she discovers she has a twin living in an Arizona town called Shelter Valley, Caroline Prater decides to go there. Pregnant and a widow, she leaves her Kentucky hometown and drives west. She'll try to connect with her twin sister, Phyllis Sheffield. And she'll seek out John Strickland, the father of her baby--if only to let him know.

John is a well-known architect, a still-grieving widower who's settled in Shelter Valley. He and Caroline met six weeks earlier when he traveled to Kentucky....

Caroline's waiting for the right moment to approach Phyllis, unsure whether her unsuspecting twin will welcome her presence. And she develops a deeper relationship with John--but that's just for the baby's sake. Or is it?

This is the last in the series of Shelter Valley stories by Tara Tyler Quinn. While it is not as good as the other ones if you have read the other books, it is interesting to see what happens to the people from the other books

At the heart of the story is Caroline Prater, a widow with a college bound son and is pregnant by a one night stand with a widower who can't get over the death of his wife in a car accident. She finds out that she has a twin Phyllis Sheffield living in Shelter Valley Arizona (which is also where the babies father lives) She goes there and enrolled for her sisters classes and tells John Strickland that she is going to have his baby.

Along the way she meets Becca Parsons, Randi Foster, Tory Sanders, Cassie Monford, Bonnie Nielson, and Beth Richards who live in the town and also had their own books. Caroline also helps the group when Phyllis finds out that her twin son and daughter are missing.
