Zoie (The Norton Sisters #2)
E.L.R. Jones

Zoie Norton is the eldest child of William and Ella Norton and the second to share her story. She has always been the one to desire the big family. She chooses to throw all caution to the wind and give in to her maternal calling. Her life has always been about caring for others. Her clock has ticked its last warning and she begins treatment to bring her long awaited child into the world.
James Kenyon is a man with no desire to have a wife and/or family of his own. He applauds his best friend for stepping out and finding love, but he wants no parts of it. He decides to aid a friend in having a baby. He doesn’t see why his friend is so willing to have a baby and raise it on her own, but he promised to help and James Kenyon is a man of his word.
Zoie and James find themselves in the company of one another more than Zoie would care for. When tragedy strikes Zoie, James is the one there to pick up the pieces. Will she give up on one dream to allow for another to be ushered in? Or will James’ closed mind call a halt to the relationship before it begins?
