Reilly is one of the Jennings of Blackwater and this is his story. He had a one night stand with Lucy, who is the best friend of his brother’s girlfriend. The morning after ends badly and the two part ways. Reilly tries to contact her but she avoids him. Lucy has been hurt before and refuses to be hurt again. Two months later, she has a positive pregnancy test and has to tell Reilly. His reaction is one of shock but he accepts this and the rest of the story is their getting to know each other.

I’m a big fan of this series. I like family sagas and unexpected pregnancies in love stories. I wish the relationship would’ve had more time to build but this is a novella series. The love scenes were hot as hell. They always are with Anne Rainey though. I enjoyed this and look forward to the next one.
