I appreciate when romance novels give you the pregnancy plot right in the title and description. I don't tend to read many of these but I adore Jackie Lau and will read whatever she sends my way.

This novel starts with a bang, including a delicious and voyeuristic meet HOT hookup at a party where everyone is getting it on in the open and ending with a wild weekend of sex resulting in the the unintended pregnancy (it is stated the characters are using condoms).

Marissa has had an abortion in the past but is now in her late 30s and wants to have a baby. She's also the only child of a single mother and has no extended family and she knows Vince Fong, rich, smart, and from a huge family, would make a great father. She's not interested in having him as anything more than a parenting partner, but Vince has decided he wants to be all in and is determined to show Marissa he is so much more than the party play boy she thinks he is.

Seeing Vince as the one trying to court Marissa, bringing her food, tending to her needs, and bringing her family and comfort, was super sweet.

If you enjoy this trope I think you'll love this story!

Thank you to the author for the ARC!
