Annalise is desperate to have a baby, but unwilling to give up her freedom to take a mate. Desperate times call for desperate measures, so she hires a stud to breed her. When Annalise meets the alpha hired to fulfill her needs, she starts to question what she's claimed to want. Liam shows her what life with an alpha could be like, and it becomes a struggle to stick to the contract and keep her emotions locked away. Liam values family above all else. Being asked to help create a baby he'd never be allowed to see is the worst decision he's ever had to make. His attraction to the omega and the chance to see his family sways his choice, but he can't help smashing through the walls Annalise tries to erect between them. He's all in, and he won't give up the miracle growing in her belly without a fight. ***This is the third book in the Hired series and features pregnancy throughout the story.
