"A very beautiful and heartwarming story"
Josh Morris traveles to the world's most remote locales
in search of stories for magazines. On the other hand, his
former wife Briana prefers the confines of her small
Missouri farm as the extent of her globetrotting. Their
relationship, albeit rather short, produced one precocious
little girl, Nealie. Now in Moscow after a dangerous stint among the
Pitcairn penguins, Josh finds messages from his agent to
urgently call his ex-wife. When he reaches her by phone,
not that easy to connect from Moscow to Missouri, he learns
that his beloved Nealie is extremely ill with the deadly
Yates anemia disease. Only the blood contained in the
umbilical cord of a sibling can save the little girl's
life. As Josh immediately returns home, Briana wonders
whom will save her life when she becomes intimate with the
only man she loves before he deserts her for his next
deadly assignment? THE BABY GIFT is a heart-wrenching contemporary romance
that uses modern medical science to perform miracles on
Nealie and on the relationship between the lead
characters. The entire cast is a delight though if they
talked with one other instead of hiding their feelings
inside secrets, they would have had less trouble (and we
readers no romance). Still Bethany Campbell provides a
gift of a tearjerker that will enthrall the audience with
its angst-laden story line. Harriet Klausner
