Like a Virgin — Carol M. Schede

Sarah Hatfield hates everything about sex. Jacob Trent hates everything about commitment. So why is this unlikely twosome trying to have a baby? Certainly not for any of the normal reasons! Sarah's sudden attack of maternal instincts is highly suspect -- while Jake is more engrossed in the mechanics of baby-making than the result. But somewhere amid their varied and often skewed reasoning, they manage to pull off the miracle of making a baby and find a love neither had anticipated or even wanted. The bad news is that their once-strong friendship is now reduced to tattered disarray. We tag along on a disastrous honeymoon for one, then quickly move on to the shopping trip from hell in search of a wedding gown. Just a minute . . . can that sequence of events be correct? And even more confusing . . . who the heck is the bride?

Carol Schede was born, raised and has spent most of her life in Knoxville, Tennessee.
