Valentine's Secret Child

By Christine Rimmer

Nine years ago Kelly Bravo and Michael Vakulic went their separate ways – he to a new name and a new life, she to a family she never knew she had. And then Kelly comes across a tantalisingly familiar photo in the newspaper. Her long–lost Michael has reinvented himself – as Mitch Valentine, multimillionaire entrepreneur. As for Kelly, she's got a new name too – mother! And a little girl with Michael's eyes... How can she tell him the truth? How can she not?
