Spice Level 2🌶🌶

This book was different than most romance novels I've read. I have to actually say I enjoyed it! Even though it starts out with a pregnancy between the two, it didn't start with any sexual scenes. This book was a slow burn, and I usually don't like them, but I really enjoyed how this was written. 

Damon had a one night stand six months ago with Adeline. That ended up with her pregnant and him finding out through text message. They fight the attractive between the two of them most of the book so they can co-parent their child. They are both set in being the best parents for their child. Living together between both of their places. Damon was such a caring man during Adeline's pregnancy, the farther along she became. Damon surprised everyone her knew once his child was born. The way you could feel his love for his baby was absolutely the sweetest thing ever. It made my ovaries melt a little 😍😍 I was rooting for this couple the whole time. Even though the past keeps Damon's from moving forward with his feelings, it took losing what he wanted most (and a lot of pep talk from friends and Adeline's mom) to finally realize his true feelings. 

This book will have your last parts wishing for another baby. It did mine, lol. Sadly, my husband said no... I'm not done with that really yet, though 😉

I received this book as an ARC, but I would recommend it to anyone who likes surprise pregnancies. I can't wait to read the next story this author comes out with. I'll go along with the hastag the author picked out. Well, Damon picked out for himself in the book. #Damonstolemyheart?
