Have my baby.
That was what my single dad best friend Seth said to me while I was waitressing at the diner.
His little girl wants a sibling. But Seth is a workaholic millionaire and doesn't have time to meet someone.
Someone who won't screw him over, like his kid's mother.
Only problem is this someone has secretly been in love with him since high school. I've been hiding it forever, not wanting to risk our friendship.
Sleeping with him is my biggest fantasy. And I've fantasized plenty, being a virgin. Another thing he doesn't know.
Now I have to make the biggest decision of my life.
Is having a no strings attached affair just to make a baby better than never having him at all?
Author’s note: this case of insta-love and insta-naked-time has been brewing for over a decade. Babymaking has never been so hot…or so funny…or so complicated.
MY REVIEW:
This
book was a sweet friend to lovers to more book.
At fifteen Seth Hamilton, the twin son of the wealthy real estate
company owner of the sleepy lake town started public school. He had been going to a prep school in
Connecticut with his twin Oliver but hated it.
He only lasted one year. Then he
decided he wanted to try the tiny school in his hometown.
He wasn’t
too sure about it on the first day. But
on the second day, the girl who had been absent day one was there day two. Which he thought Ally Lawrence badass for
ditching. But later found out that Ally’s
mom was very ill and stayed home to keep her company. Considering on the first day when he thought
she was badass for ditching well knowing now why he thought she was even more
badass for the reason she did it. He has
no mom she just walked out on the family so he liked that they were close
because Ally was will to share her mom and he enjoyed spending time with her.
Their
friendship didn’t stop from that day forward it only grew. Even when Seth dated, each time breaking Ally’s
heart but she was always happy he was happy.
Then Seth got caught with hand in the cookie jar so to speak you see he
got Marj pregnant and so being Seth, he had to make it right. He married her. He wanted to make sure that Ally knew that
she would always be his best friend and that they would still be as close and
hang out as they did. She said no they
couldn’t and wouldn’t for he had a wife now and she would be his best friend
and he needed to spend time with her and his family he made.
Before
he could argue with her the day of the wedding she was gone. Out to sit with guest in the church. But not six months later Marj wanted a pay
out and gave up all rights to Laurie their daughter she didn’t want their life
or baby. She didn’t like Ally or having
her in the picture at all.
So,
they divorced. Leaving Seth with a new
born and that is when Ally stepped in to help her friend. From that point on it was the two of them
caring for Seth’s daughter. Until Ally’s
mom started to take a turn and she was needed home to care for her more. She was doing all this while working at the
diner too. Even when Marj was around she
was help care for Laurie because she had no mothering instincts and would only
get pissed at the baby which would only make her more pissed because Ally was a
round. Catch twenty-two.
Well,
that baby was now getting ready to turn four and Seth was looking to extend his
family. A way to help Ally financially during
a difficult time too. So, he comes up
with this cut and dry way for Ally to be a pod that, carries his baby but doesn’t
think the scientific way no the good old-fashioned way of making babies is good
for him of “I want you in my bed.” Not
only that he drew up a contract to go with it.
Ally
has a major freak out. After all these
years of fantasying about him and tampering it down then he flat out she he
wants to “F” her she can’t think so she runs.
She won’t talk to him. Now this
is new to Seth they haven’t gone more than a couple of days without calling or
texting and this is torture for him.
Not to mention if they ever make it into bed
Ally has a huge surprise for him. She
had hoped that years ago he would have noticed her and married her but the day
he walked down the aisle with another woman dashed that dream. So, now almost thirty makes her almost a
freak. Life is about to get
exciting. After years of being friends
and trying to hide her feelings, also year’s of having Seth in her erotic
dreams was mind blowing enough but now for them to be acting on them. It’s overwhelming to her. To the point that after each encounter she
runs and he understands and wants to get closer freaking her out.
I loved
Laurie the daughter of Seth, she was written so cute into this story which
binds them as a couple. She also,
humanizes Oliver into a loving character opposite of what everyone sees
him. I ended up liking him too. Sage well she’s sage what a hoot. I give this: 5 stars. Provided by netgalley.com. Follow us at www.1rad-readerreviews.com.
