Synopsis "Due Dates: Scandals Book #1 (in English)"

An inheritance brought her more than she ever could have imagined... Killeen Ames has it all...beauty, brains, a college softball scholarship and a rich and handsome boyfriend who has helped to stretch her college funds and fill her social calendar. He is the only boy she ever allowed past second base and now he's her baby daddy. However, being a father was not in his short-range plans. He graduates, then he splits, leaving Killeen to decide what she wants to do about the pregnancy...and to worry about how she's going to keep her scholarship. With no marketable skills, no job, no home and medical bills for her and the baby on the horizon, she knows she must move forward. A knock at the door of her boyfriend's apartment changes the game forever when an attorney gives her the news of an inheritance from an unknown dead relative. After traveling to Austin, Killeen walks into the meeting and is surprised to find out that the relative was actually her birth father, and he had been a popular music star who recently died of an overdose. Even more shocking are the four strangers who share the same absentee dad. He has left them a highly successful private investigation agency, Scandals. The catch is...they have to make the commitment to work there. Their introduction to the P.I. business almost gets them killed when a bomb goes off in the warehouse that sends Killeen to the hospital. She has kept the secret of her pregnancy from everyone, including Christopher, the totally irresistible manager of Scandals. Their hot night of wild sex in the office was a one-time thing...right? She chalks up her attraction to him as just raging hormones. They have no chance of a future together. He's gorgeous, intelligent and successful. He would never want anyone with so much baggage. Christopher has a secret of his own. He's been investigation the possibility that, despite popular opinion, their father's death hadn't been an accidental overdose. He thinks it was murder. Even though the five siblings still haven't accepted the fact that they have a father who made no attempt to be a part of their lives, they join together to discover the truth about his death. The search throws Killeen and Christopher together and their passion grows hotter. As her feelings for him slowly become more serious, she knows she must tell him about the baby. After a fun day in the sun, an event happens that outs Killeen's secret. Christopher, as expected, doesn't take the news well. But they must continue to work together to track down a killer, especially since the killer has now focused on them. Someone doesn't want them to stay and take over the business. In fact, someone wants them all dead and now the decision on whether or not to be a part of the agency seems very unimportant compared to the job of trying to stop from being killed. They set up a trap that goes terribly wrong. Suddenly, Killeen must make a big decision. Who should she save? Her baby? Christopher? Her new brothers and sisters? Their lives are in her hands. Due Dates is the first book in the Scandals New Adult series of romantic suspense. Each book of the series will focus on one of the offspring of Roger Elliott, a famous musician who left them with a legacy they weren't expecting. This book is about Killeen Ames who must deal with an unexpected pregnancy, an absentee baby daddy, an irresistible attraction to a hot new guy and four new half-brothers and sisters. Killer Date, the second book in this series will be released in Summer, 2014 and will tell Reno's story.
