Alec received a shocking news back in Weston's Treasure (Book 3) that he is a daddy to a babygirl from a one night's stand. Alec's Dream is the continuation of the Gemini Group series and once again, I enjoyed reading it.

Now I might be a minority and I struggled with this for many days before writing my review. Eventhough I received this ARC, I'm adamant about being honest on my thoughts on this book. As I said, I'm in the minority where most reviewers seemed to love Macy, I don't quite like her character for about 80% of the book. I find her to be such a doormat for others, especially her ex-husband but when it comes to Alec who was trying his best to protect her, suddenly she developed a backbone and became all fiesty! Perhaps I'm being harsh and perhaps I should be more understanding of her plight but I seriously wanted to slap some sense into her. A couple of times I found myself putting down my kindle and I had to go do something else to calm myself down. I think that's why it took me longer to finish this book where I usually am able to finish Riley Edwards book in one sitting.

Alec on the other hand is a DREAM! I adore him and he made such a great daddy! Oh he struggled initially and he had his doubts, he also abhorred resentment towards his baby's mother. Had she not passed away, Alec would never had known about his baby. He struggled with his thoughts but that doesn't deter him from trying to be the best daddy for his little girl.

Alec's Dream is filled with cute daddy/daughter moments which made me go "Awww" and also it has suspense with of course, really sexy times. This book can be read on its own but I do highly recommend reading them in order.
