Blurb<\/strong><\/h4>\n

A one-night stand gone wrong?<\/b><\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n

Michael
\nBeing traded after fighting with your coach on air isn\u2019t exactly a good look.
\nWith one mistake under my belt, I knew I needed to focus on the game and nothing else.
\nBut everything changed when I went to pick up my niece and came face-to-face with my very pregnant one-night stand from six months ago.<\/p>\n

Jillian
\nTwo pink lines changed all my plans.
\nSo did the guy I had a one-night stand with, a man who made me laugh and smile, a guy who I called to share my unexpected news with, only to find out his number was no longer in service.
\nOnce more letdown by the opposite sex, I figured I was doing this on my own.
\nThen one day, I was staring into the eyes of the man I hated, the father of my baby.<\/p>\n

All it took was only one mistake to change everything.<\/p>\n

Review<\/b><\/h4>\n

4.5 stars!<\/b><\/p>\n

What a fun read! A surprise pregnancy story that is sweet, funny, sexy and swoony, with one of my favourite book families along for the ride. This is a gorgeously functional, angst-free romance, and I loved it!<\/p>\n

This is the story of Michael Horton. Michael is the son of Max and Allison (from Something So Irresistible<\/a>), and he\u2019s all grown up and playing in the NHL like his father, uncles and grandfather before him\u2026 and a handful of cousins. After a bad experience with his coach, he has been traded to Dallas, to play on the same team as his cousin, Cooper, and hopefully get the fresh start to his career he so badly needs.<\/p>\n

On his first night in town he meets a woman who has just been stood up by a blind date. Jillian didn\u2019t even want to go on the date, but she was talked into it, and while her night looked like it was going to be an absolute disaster, she ended up being rescued by Michael, and the two of them share drinks, banter, and one steamy as hell night together.<\/p>\n

Random circumstances result in them unwillingly losing touch, but five months later Michael is picking up his young nieces from school and wouldn\u2019t you know it\u2026 Jillian is their teacher. And she\u2019s pregnant.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a fun set up, and it\u2019s so well done, and the story unfolds beautifully as Michael declares himself immediately \u2018in\u2019, and works hard to make up for the time he missed, and to prepare for the big changes coming their way.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is changing everything.\u201d
\n\u201cNot changing. Making us better.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It\u2019s such a gorgeous story and I loved watching Michael and Jillian find their way together. Michael is such a force when going after what he wants (Jillian included), but their romance is a slow build, full of chemistry, beautifully sweet moments, and an attraction that creates fantastic sexual tension. And, of course, there\u2019s also a healthy dose of sexy time that is blisteringly hot.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I loved these characters. Jillian is smart, sensible, strong yet vulnerable, and so relatable, and of course Michael is a dream. He\u2019s a good guy with a huge heart, completely alpha of course, and his sense of wonder over his unborn child is just gorgeous.<\/p>\n

One of the highlights for me was seeing the beautiful relationship between Michael and his Dad, Max. Max has always been a fave of mine in this series, and seeing him in the role of loving, protective and supportive father absolutely stole my heart. I almost teared up at one point! But along with all of that love comes a heavy dose of the ridiculous as the family descends, bringing laugh-out-loud hilarity as they insert themselves into the situation, and OMG, I loved it!<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the hell is wrong with you?\u201d She looks at me, then looks at my dad. \u201cWhat the hell is wrong with him? Didn\u2019t you teach him the whole condom thing?\u201d
\nMy father just looks at her shocked. \u201cFirst off, we had this talk with him together.\u201d He points at my mother. \u201cAnd second, I think he\u2019s smart enough to know what to do with his penis.\u201d He looks at me. \u201cYou did know what to do?\u201d
\nI get up. \u201cOf course we used protection, but it\u2019s like\u2026\u201d I run my hands through my hair. \u201cIt\u2019s not a hundred percent.\u201d
\n\u201cYou know what is a hundred percent?\u201d Matthew says, leaning forward. \u201cA baby.\u201d
\n\u201cYour wisdom sometimes is just groundbreaking,\u201d my father says to him sarcastically. \u201cWhy are you even here?\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And not just the parents! Michael and Jillian both have overly-intrusive, sassy sisters who also bring a lot of laughs to the story.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are making out on the couch,\u201d I hear Julia say from behind me. \u201cLooks hot and heavy. Should I break it up?\u201d
\n\u201cShe\u2019s already pregnant. He can\u2019t do more damage than that,\u201d I hear Alex say.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There is build-up there for the final two books of the series, and I am so excited for the stories that are to come.<\/p>\n

I loved this book, loved being back int this world with these characters, and finished this book with a huge smile on my face<\/p>\n

4.5 stars!<\/p>\n

Abou<\/strong>t the Author<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"When her nose isn\u2019t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she\u2019s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It\u2019s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn\u2019t listen to her\u2026<\/p>\n
