I've read quite a bit of Lilian Monroe's books and I have to admit there is one big reason I keep picking them and that is the whole surprise baby/accidental pregnancy trope.  I know this is a wildly unpopular book trope but it is my favorite (I can't get enough) and Lilian Monroe's always deliver on this trope.  I have to say that overall I enjoyed this book and the story but the writing isn't the best.  I know going into these books that they can be kind of formulaic, but that doesn't bother me all that much because I know what to expect but there were some parts that were so repetitive in this book and I'm not sure if she always wrote like that and I just didn't recall but there were some moments that were so repetitive that I kind of took my enjoyment out a little bit.  There were times where the author kept bringing up the same issue over and over again without elaborating (for example the whole issue between Marcus and his sister) and I just found that a bit annoying and unnecessary.  I still was able to enjoy the book though and I liked the characters.  I just wish the whole pregnancy part of the book lasted longer because I just a sucker for that but overall this is my type of quick and easy read that I have a good time reading.
