From the back cover

Three months after her baby is born, Vera Sommer learns her husband, Joe Powell, has been cheating with Hailey, a young secretary who is pregnant and eager to take her place. The divorce is finalized, but with no job, no money and a prenuptial agreement that leaves her nothing, Vera has nowhere to go. Joe's mother, Claudia Caire, lets her stay in the guest room of the Powell house until she finds a place, while Hailey moves her luggage into the master bedroom.

Claudia, a bestselling author, sets firm rules: Hailey must handle the household chores, while Vera is a guest and any help she gives is a courtesy. When Joe demands Vera leave and Hailey protests the work, Claudia refuses to let her grandson suffer. She gives Vera books on storytelling and writing, urging her to stand on her own.

Vera has no family left and cannot raise Luca alone, so she stays. Hailey's pregnancy looks like a sham, and Joe's career is shaky. Claudia's inheritance is the prize both of them want.

"Hailey," Claudia said, "you'll handle all the household responsibilities now."

Hailey, all fake enthusiasm, chirped, "I'll take good care of this family!"

Claudia replied, "Great. You'll start your day at five making breakfast. When Luca's hungry, you'll feed him and change his diapers.
