title: Vineyard Heir
author: Loveright, Faith
description: When Ricardo Francini’s father died, leaving him the Italian villa complete with acres and acres of vineyards full of the finest grapes, he thought for sure he had struck gold. But part of his father’s last will and testament included a codicil that demanded he produce an heir. Not wanting to tie himself down in marriage, he does the only thing that a man in his position can do. He hires a woman to act as a surrogate. The last thing Ricardo expects is that while he’s waiting for his heir to be born, his emotions start to get wrapped up in the woman that had agreed to bare his child for him. Can Ricardo find a way to convince Stella to consider a more permanent roll in his life and that of the child they had created together? It may be time for Ricardo to consider tying his life to a woman in holy matrimony after all, because Stella is an all or nothing kind of woman!
