Undeniably Unexpected follows the story of Keegan, Loomis, and Fen(ric).
Keegan is going through the motions of finishing up her residency as an OB/GYN doctor at the main hospital in Boston. When we meet her in this book she is at a local coffee shop working on a paranormal romance novel. Yes, Keegan is doing both at the moment but we all know where her heart lies. As much as Keegan loves taking care of moms and their babies she loves writing more. But as a woman from a prominent family in Boston.. can she really write full time?
Well.. here comes her inspiration the tall, blonde, and handsome, Loomis. Loomis has been a secret crush of Keegan's for years. These two have known of each other for a little bit but Keegan never crossed the line of taking things to the next level with playboy Loomis. Yes, Loomis has a reputation. But that reputation is about to change when he finds out he's a dad.
These two embark on a fake dating rouse because Keegan's ex will not leave her alone. A little quid pro quo. Little do either of these know.. that they're going to fall in love, hard and fast.. and Fen is going to be the star of the show in blocking most attempts of them getting close.
I do love these characters so much and I enjoyed reading this lovely contemporary romance novel because it's different. It has elements of mystery, intrigue, and laughs. These two are surrounded by a bounty of family members and friends who would move mountains to keep them safe.
If you're looking for a movie star daddy that falls for a red headed paranormal romance writer, then this book needs to be on your TBR.

I have been enjoying this series, so I was happy to get my hands on this one. I wasn't sure how this was going to go, but I was pleasantly surprised with how J. Saman created this world for Keegan and Loomis.
I really enjoyed Loomis' character. The playboy turned fatherโI thought his character was developed really well. I loved how vulnerable he was able to be and how he attempted to maintain the boundaries he set, even if in the end those lines got blurred. I loved how much he loved his son; being thrust into this new role without an inkling of information, he did what he needed to do. I loved that his need to make sure that Fen grows up knowing unconditional love.
Keegan, I have loved her since the beginning of this series and all the little snippets we have gotten of her throughout. I love that she has a secret romance author hobby going on and I can understand her fear of going against the grain and not feeling "Accepted" about what she may want from her life. I could understand why she struggles with decisions about what she wants for her future.
The sexual tension between these two that literally starts at the beginning until it finally explodes emanates off the page. I loved the flirting and the banter. It all felt natural and real. How hard they fought to keep the boundaries they set, but at the same time, we know they don't want to keep them.
I loved the family component; it was perfect. I love that Julie keeps everyone together. I love this aspect of this series; we get to keep tabs on everyone. It also adds dimensions to the MCs themselves.
I am excited to see what comes next for the Undeniable series.

I was late to the game with this series, but Iโm in it now and LOVING IT!!
This was such a fun fake relationship, forced proximity listen! How can you not fall in love with a bad boy British movie star whoโs new to a single dad role? Loomis and Keegan have some great chemistry that sparks from the first encounter.
This story is a great example of why I enjoy dual POV! As the reader, we know the characters are secretly obsessed with each other while believing the other doesnโt feel the same. Rather than finding it frustrating, I think it creates emotional tension and anticipation, rather than miscommunication. J. Saman writes some exceptional spice! Itโs organic and authentic to the character dynamic thatโs natural and reflects a nice balance thatโs both romantic and kinky. ๐
Both narratorsโ accent work is phenomenal! Loomis is British and Keegan is American so both narrators were not only executing dual POV for both the male and female characters but also seamlessly jumped back and forth between a British and American accent as well - super impressive!
Iโve said on multiple occasions that Samโs dude could get it but Samโs British dude is next level! I thought the softness she brought to Keegan amplified her vulnerability with Loomis as well!
I adore the British accent - itโs so posh! Add that element to the deep, rich, smooth timber of Will M. Wattโs voice and itโs just so freaking soothing! He makes wonderfully natural choices with his timing and inflection that adds just that little bit more to the performance. He reminds me a bit of Jude Law. And when Loomis calls Keegan โloveโ?โฆ๐ซ ๐ฎโ๐จ
Highly recommend this series in audio! Planning to work my way through the entire Saman-verse soon!
Thank you to @mustloveaudio and J. Saman for the ALC!

Thanks for the ARC, VPR!
I was bummed when I didnโt Get the ARC for Undeniably Enemies, but when i was approved for this, I WAS SO EXCITED.
Keegan is one of the memorable characters in the series! So for her to get her HEA, it was GO-Go.
Paired with her unrequited no so finally LOVE, in the form of Tinsleyโs British movie star-tabloid darling, Best friend was a good job by J.Saman cos finally they are heading somewhere.
I love single dad romance,especially if the dad is a reformed playboy, whoโs clueless what to do with his child. Loomis was endearing to read plus charming.
Keegan is always the quiet & soft one in the bunch, so upon reading knowing thatโs she a secret romantasy writer, was a blast. Kickass O&G by day, steamy author by night!
Love that they created a family for baby which was sweet & cute plus Keegan & Loomis were sparks everywhere.
I still prefer Jack & Wren/Owen & Estlinโs book though. But since iโm a fan of this series, of course I will be rooting for Vanderโs.
P/S if youโre new to the series, you might get lost, i understand but if you like to be rogue, have a try, J.Samanโs writing is superb.

The story follows Keegan Fritz and the Hollywood bad boy, Loomis Powell. When a simple outing together sparks a flurry of dating rumors, the two decide to fake a relationship in order to protect Loomis' son's identity and repair his public image.
๐ have always had a soft spot for misunderstood characters, and Loomis is no exception. Despite his flashy lifestyle, he is a good person at heart who is simply trying to navigate the complexities of fame and unexpected fatherhood. Keegan, initially relegated to the friend zone, finds herself drawn to Loomis during a private getaway, leading to a realization that their attraction is impossible to ignore.
๐ง๐๐ก๐ dynamic between Keegan and Loomis is electric, and my heart swelled when the Fritz family welcomed Loomis's son with open arms. The dual narration by ๐๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ฆ๐จ๐จ๐ซ and ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐๐๐ญ๐ญ was spot on. They do an excellent job bringing the characters to life, and to be honest, Samantha Bretmoor can do no wrong in my eyes!
