Inevitably Yours — Verlene Landon

Love can be unexpected, but sometimes, the fall is inevitable. Augusta is a carefree soul with the heart of an angel, the face of a pixie, and the body of a…pregnant woman? When she decided to carry a baby for friends who couldn't do it themselves, she knew she'd have to give up a lot -- coffee, seeing her feet, and possibly even her chance at happiness with the man she adored. John doesn't thrive in chaos. Control and routine are more his style. Some might even say he's anal. This way of life has served him well for decades, but he's due for a change. That's easier said than done, though, particularly when your motivation is about to give birth to another man's child. When old wounds reopen, sometimes clinging on to tight control is the only way to survive the ride. But when the only way to grasp the future is to reach for it with both hands, you have to let go of something. Some things in life are inevitable, but that doesn't mean they're easy. (Although this book is the complete tale of a couple, I wouldn't consider it a stand-alone. For the richest experience, I recommend reading the series in order.)
