Deep by Kylie Scott
4.0

Now, secret baby isn’t really a trope I read a lot of and in general pregnancies in books aren’t my jam, but it worked here! I liked this one in the way it kind of pulled in some flashback elements from the first book because Ben and Lizzie’s relationship really starts in Lead.

My favorite part of this novel is the flashes of Jimmy and Lena we see and the way Mal steps up to be a protective big brother for Lizzie. Other than that, the rest of the book is kinda meh for me. Definitely fun and sexy, but overall not my favorite of the series. Ben was basically a prick for the first….. 70% of the book and Lizzie was almost flat to me, BUT it does turn around quite well in the end.

Between Ben’s sister coming back, Ben finally getting his head out of his ass and stepping up as a dad, and Lizzie growing into more than the little sister this one had a good redemption arc. My third favorite in the series, to be sure.
