Such a sweet and easy read. Catherine, our FMC, finds herself unexpectedly pregnant after a ONS with her friend Liam. They also happen to be trying to flip a house together, but funds are tight, so she finds herself in need of a job. Enter Elliot, our MMC, the CEO of his own company, who needs a new assistant and decides Catherine is the one for the job. Fast forward a few months of her working for Elliot and them forming a friendship of sorts and a heavily pregnant Catherine is abandoned by Liam with debt up to her eyeballs and a house falling down around her and the arrival of her daughter imminent. After her daughter arrives and Elliot realises the bad situation mum & baby are in he immediately steps up and moves them in with him and it's from there that we get to see the slow development of him falling for Catherine and her baby girl Josephine. 

This gave me all the warm fuzzy feelings, it was a low angst cutesy read that demonstrated good communication between the MCs for the most part, what a supportive partner should look like and I really enjoyed how the relationship between them developed. The scenes with Elliot and the baby were adorable and I really liked the side characters, this is the first book of this series I have read as its the one my mood reading self was in the mood for, I'm aware that the previous two books are some of the side characters stories but the fact I haven't read them yet made no difference to my enjoyment of this story. It can be read as a standalone, but I will definitely be reading the others when the mood strikes. The banter & spice were good, I wish more had been done with the postscript bit within the story as it would've been really cute to have had more of that. Overall, it is a lighthearted enjoyable read. 🌶🌶
