Oh. My. God. I LOVED IT!!!!!!!! It’s a standalone in the Jamison Valley series but you can read it as a standalone without confusion (although I do highly recommend all the books as top favorites)… anyways, this one was just released so be sure to grab a copy!!

FUN RECOMMENDATION: Hooking Up by Helena Hunting (Read my Review)
WOOHOOOO!!!! This was a FUN, SEXY ROMANTIC COMEDY and the best part is that it’s now live!!! The story was well balanced between hilarious moments, awkward mishaps, super sexy hotness, and actually quite a fair bit of angst! The hero is PURE SWOON MATERIAL!! He’s thoughtful, considerate and caring with a bit of a bad boy past and he totally just swoops right into the heroine’s life at her lowest moment, stands by her side when her world falls apart, and shows her what it’s like to be loved and cared for as she deserves. But there are complications with her slimy soon-to-be-ex-husband so they have some hurdles to leap to get to their happily ever after. If you’re looking for a hot, light-hearted romance, try this!! Be sure to grab a copy as it was just released and it can standalone!

He also insisted on something else — that I ditch my plan involving a turkey baster and let him do the job. He would be my baby daddy. He was a wealthy and powerful CEO with little interest in diapers or playdates. And since he didn’t want kids, I’d be on my own once his bun was in my oven, free to go my own way. But once his baby was inside me, it was like a switch had been flipped, and I got a whole lot more than I ever bargained for.”
