What does the richest man in the world do when he's afraid to love his baby girl? *** What do you do when your three-year-old insists on sleeping in a hammock - two stories up from the ground?

""Andry, don't encourage her,"" Devin said with a sigh, and as Karana's beaming little face fell, he cursed himself for his fumbling lack of subtlety. He should have left it to Andry, who seemed to have been born subtle. You'd think that having spent every minute together that they could arrange since their mothers first had them share a cradle would have gotten some of that to rub off on Devin, but no...
