DON’T DROP THE BABY
By: Linda O’Connor
The Plot:
Dr. Brogan Corkie is happily semi-
retired from medicine and now has time
for other hobbies. Her passion for food is
second only to her skill at matchmaking!
Ross Skye, owner of BabyCare, a
high-end line of baby merchandise, is in-
jured in an accident, and Brogan uses her
cooking, medical—and matchmaking—
skills to help him out. Dr. Lauren Kane is
taking care of her nephew for two weeks,
and Brogan agrees to babysit while Lauren
is at work.
… Ross is trying to convince Lauren that they‟d make an
awesome parenting team. Brogan suggests they test-drive par-
enthood by looking after a simulated baby for a week—a com-
puterized version that eats, sleeps, wets, and cries. Ross and
Lauren experience the “joy” of having a newborn firsthand. …
Their first goal is: don‟t drop the baby.

An Excerpt
“Eventually you‟re going to have to deal with the demons,
you know. You can‟t just hire out a baby.”
“Maybe I‟m rethinking having my own.” As soon as the
words came out, he regretted it. “I‟m sorry. I‟m making a mess of
this. Blame it on the lack of sleep. I know this is a temporary
solution, but I‟m desperate. Please, Lauren. Could we just try? I
have a roomful of BabyCare merchandise that I‟d be happy to
give you in exchange. You could take your pick.”
“My sister does love your stuff.” The grudging reluctance in
her voice gave him a glimmer of hope. “Is Brogan okay with
this?”
“Yes. And I promise, if he doesn‟t settle with me, then Bro-
gan can take him home.”
She sighed. “All right. As long as he‟s happy and gets his
sleep, I‟m okay with it.”
“Thanks, Lauren, I appreciate it.”
