4.5 Stars rounding up to 5 stars.

A really good, pleasant romance, Jenny Frame style. You've got your single Femme, Rebecca, a mother of a gifted 10 yr old son and she is pregnant with her second. Fiercely independent and private which leads to problems when her pregnancy is not going smoothly. Then you have your Butch, Dale. A player who has become weary of her lifestyle. I feel that Dale isn't Frame's typical Butch - a bit softer maybe? All the MC's are very likable, except for the villain of course. I also loved Jake, scarily genius but still a 10yr old if not younger socially.

Funny, it was one those books that I read over half in one sitting. Then I forced myself to slow down and not rush through it. I will warn you *everything* is very predictable. But it didn't matter to me. I enjoyed the book. Frame has become one of my favorite authors who's books I enjoy rereading. I'm looking forward to her next book, "Charming the Vicar" with the Vicar, Bridget from Courting the Countess.

Self-made business owner Dale McGuire has always enjoyed two things in life: women and fast cars. Now in her mid thirties, she’s restless and can’t work out why. Then one day a ten-year-old boy turns up, claiming to be her son, and her simple ordered world turns upside down. Rebecca Harper bears the emotional scars of her father’s crimes, and now she has two rules: never let anyone get too close, and never admit weakness. Thanks to an anonymous egg donor, infertility didn’t stop her from having her son Jake. Now pregnant for a second time, she’s horrified when Jake brings home the woman he believes is his other mother. When distrust turns to understanding and passion, can Dale and Rebecca, two women bound by fate, make a family neither expected?

This was a surprisingly short and unexpectedly happy book; and I’m happy about both of those. Heartwarming and just descriptive enough without dragging out the content.
