I love the connecting series that Melody Anne, writes. The matchmaking is in the background, but you know that it is there and helps us root for the couple.
Kian has more patience than most men. He gives Roxie time and space, Plus gives his daughter attention regardless of the problems that he and Roxie have.
I can't wait for the next book in the series.
I found the story to be well-written and entertaining. Good overall romance.
This was such an unusual synopsis for a book I knew it would be right up my alley…and my angsty sense was correct. Holy macaroni…the first chapter blew me away. Trauma surgeon, Kian, is called to an emergency only to leave the confines of a hospital privacy curtain knowing that he is now a father… Whoa. What a shock to your perfectly organized life. But the next shock is seeing your once-in-a-lifetime true love, Roxie, at the bedside of your daughter.
This is my favorite line of the entire book, “Seconds passed without sound beyond of their breathing.”
Oh my..Let the questions begin for Kian. The first being… How in the H E L L did you manage to knock up the sister, and 2) Why did you and Roxie break up?
“One night they’d been making love; the next night she’d been gone with very little explanation.”
The story is told in third person, alternating between characters. It was a very good storyline, but I did find that not a lot of depth was given to Roxie’s character. Her family past was a little rough, and I feel like we were just given a small enough glimpse into it to validate her absence for all those years. So much more could have been elaborated upon.
I really liked Kian’s character. He was strong, caring, and fiercely devoted to those he loved which included his daughter and his ex-girlfriend. He never lost his love for Roxie. He wants her back, but Roxie is too dang stubborn.
“Their time had come and gone, and to think of them in a relationship again was impractical and just wasn’t going to happen.”
Kian is 35 years old and has been through the run of the mill single club, and now he’s wanting a chance at a family. Roxie needs to open up her eyes. My goodness woman. There is an incredibly sexy man wanting you but yet you are too hung up in the past. Ugh… sometimes a strong-willed woman really irks me when they don’t see what is best for them.
Kian and Roxie need to get over the past and move forward raising this beautiful little girl. Along the way we meet Kian’s brothers and I think we will be in for a real treat reading more about them.
