After two years of being deafened by the tick-tock of her biological clock and tormented by Mother Nature's refusal to grant her a baby, Emma Hamilton decides to go for the instant solution: finding a Russian baby in need of a home. But Emma hasn't reckoned on the route to adoption being so complicated .... 
 
Between proving that she's fit to be a mother (by inventing an unblemished past and discovering an unsuspected talent for housekeeping), driving her long-suffering husband insane with madcap schemes to make them the perfect would-be parents (a few Russian verbs a night and they'll be fluent in no time), and tripping over red tape every step of the way (who knew social workers could be so terrifying?) Emma finds out that adoption is far from the easy option - and that perfection has very little to do with finding the perfect match.

 But when Lucy begins to receive anonymous threatening messages, she realizes that there’s more at stake than a trophy. Even more alarming, Wes seems to be keeping secrets – and Lucy is determined to figure out what they are, even if it kills her.

And this is precisely why Everett doesn't date anymore.
