One runaway rabbit, a borrowed baby, and an oversized turkey turn one quiet holiday into utter chaos.
When Megan Murphy discovers a floppy-eared rabbit gnawing on the hem of her skirt, she means to give its careless owner a piece of her mind, but Dr. Patrick Hunter is too attractive to stay mad at for long.
As for Patrick, he wants nothing more than to play house with Maggie—and make Thanksgiving dinner for their families. But Megan has wept over one failed love, and she's afraid to risk her heart again. Can the good doctor help heal her heart?
An unexpected baby left in Patrick’s kitchen suddenly turns the two strangers into instant foster parents, long before Megan can retreat to her quiet pottery studio. She resolves to treat baby-sitting as a temporary favor, yet dodging flying spoonfuls of smashed beets across his kitchen table quickly shatters that sensible plan. Patrick swears he can manage an old-fashioned holiday feast, though scorching the applesauce and wrestling an oversized turkey across the floor suggests otherwise.
