--> That's how excited I was about this book! It drove me crazy not knowing who the baby's daddy was. Finally, the secret's been lifted!

Besides Savannah’s story, this one was the most anticipated book in this series for me, especially after how book #2 ended. I was so excited and had high expectations with a storyline like that, because there were so many possibilities and you just never knew on which path it would lead you.

'This is like a wild fucking pitch I didn't see coming that hits me right in the helmet.'

The story had a fast pace, was quick and easy to read and very enjoyable. As always, I loved the Bailey family and how fun they were. I can’t say that I got to know much about Harley but she seemed like a nice woman who lived her life without much drama as she had enough of that while growing up. Calista was a sweet kid and I liked how everyone seemed to be smitten with her.

The beginning of the story was great with Harley coming into this small gossiping town and looking for her baby’s daddy. It was a great start but not long after, when she was still somewhat of a stranger after only a couple of days in Lake Starlight, the time jumping forward and rushing the story along kept me from connecting with the characters. It took away some great things from the story because I would have liked to see more of the first moments between the father and his child as well as with Harley. I also expected him to struggle a bit with his new role in life and the responsibility for another human being, having to learn his way with a baby. But sadly this was all taken away and showed hardly any development but jumped right into the almost perfect family. I also didn’t like Harley’s rash decisions without further thoughts.
Maybe my high expectations of this book and its unused potential were the reasons why I was slightly disappointed.

Don’t get me wrong, it was still a very well written story with a few funny moments in true Piper Rayne fashion (absolutely loved the kitchen scene!) and some hot sequences, but I guess I expected a bit more depth all things considered. It also wasn’t as memorable of a story as other’s in this series were. Nonetheless, I’m looking forward to the next book, especially because it will be about one of my favorite members of the Bailey clan. ...more

Not sure how I missed rating and reviewing this, but I absolutely loved it.

How often does a woman have a one-night stand, goes looking for the father and finds out the SOB gave her his twin's name?

Well that is exactly what happened to Harley. Rome gave Denver's name which means she basically wasn't sure who the father of her baby was. Once it's cleared up Rome does everything in his power to get her to stay in Lake Starlight so that he can get to know his daughter.

And the rest is history.
