(Summerfield Publisher Aug. 1, 2018)
Jessica Taylor couldn’t believe her ears. “I paid for her to have my baby, so where is it?” She overheard her father being threatened by someone in the living room of their mansion in Beverly Hills.
“Jack, you don’t need to pay anyone to have your baby! But look, it’s all in hand…”
Jessica couldn’t believe it. Was her father that cash-strapped that he had sold her body to surrogacy? And for how much?
“Then I want my million back!”
Jessica burst in the door.
Jack Wilson stood before her, famous soccer player with L.A. Galaxy. He was looking for a surrogate mother for his child?
“Daddy, what’s going on?” but her father crumpled to the ground before them. Jessica called the ambulance, but Patrick Taylor was already dead leaving behind nothing only Jessica and millions of dollars’ worth of debt, casting Jessica into the obscure world of poverty which she had never known?
“Now you owe me!” was the only note of sympathy Jessica got from that hateful man, Jack Wilson on the day of the funeral.
But could having Jack Wilson’s baby save Jessica from the mind-numbing grind of poverty?
