A Review by Lexi Connor
Wow! Emily McKay has done it again. She’s given us a touching story with characters to love and a romance for even the most cynical person to believe in.
Lucy Alwin will stop at nothing to protect her baby niece. After her irresponsible twin sister leaves the baby on the doorstep of the father, Lucy decides it’s best to pose as her sister, claim to have made a mistake and then walk away with the baby. However, Lucy doesn’t count on powerful businessman Dex Messina embracing fatherhood. According to the tabloids, wasn’t he a playboy after all? But the precious baby soon wraps Dex around her finger, and Lucy begins to realize he isn’t the cold, unfeeling man she expected. When Lucy finds herself falling in love with Dex, she knows she must tell him the truth. But will Lucy’s lies tear them apart or can this perfect family be mended?
As a devoted fan of Ms. McKay, I knew her talents would once again capture my heart when I sat down to read this book. However, I was totally unprepared for the excellent twists she throws into Lucy and Dex’s love story, ones that had me turning pages as fast as I could. The problems surrounding Lucy and Dex, the fears they both keep guarded, threaten to derail any chance of a happily-ever-after. But once again, Ms. McKay doesn’t disappoint her readers. Wonderful plotting, believable characters (not to mention one adorable baby!), and the unfolding of a tender romance make this a first-class read not to be missed!

Oh, fine. Now I have *another* book to go buy. Sheesh. ;?) Seriously, though, it's always good to have a recommendation from someone I know -- there's so much on the shelves out there, and nothing's worse than investing time and emotions in a book, only to discover it tanks at the end.
I love your book reviews.
Kerry, I don't review unless I really like it either.
Thanks, Nicole! Look for another one (for Laura Griffin's new book) in another week or so!
I'm anxiously awaiting my copy from Amazon...
