Trope Tuesday - Secret Baby

Welcome to Trope Tuesday - Secret Baby!

Secret baby is a popular trope in romance and often seen in the titles of the Mills & Boon range. Basically, there is a baby or child that your hero doesn't know he has until the heroine shows up announcing he's a daddy.

Storylines using this trope generally consist of the hero and heroine reconciling whatever differences lead to their separation and falling in love all over again on their way to becoming a family.
