Politician and senate hopeful Bennett Browning knows nothing about babies. When his former girlfriend dies and leaves him with a daughter he knew nothing about, he’s left scrambling until he meets Emma Kuan, his daughter’s aunt, who volunteers to be the nanny.
Emma is used to keeping secrets. She and her sister have always hidden their tragic past, but she’s stunned her sister hid the baby even from her. Meeting her niece captures her heart, and she would do anything to be with her, even living with a stranger.
Worried about potential scandal, Bennett and Emma juggle jobs, living arrangements, and parenting until a doctor gives them bad news about their baby girl. Then their priorities change drastically.
Between The Pages
This contemporary romance was an emotional read. The main characters, Bennett and Emma, were both likable and fun to get to know. Bennett comes from a political family, while Emma’s background is where ‘pull the heartstrings’ kicks in. She has suffered loss, abandonment, and homelessness, but her character is resilient and grows into an independent woman. The secondary cast is enjoyable, especially little Madelynn, who stole every scene. The author upped the emotional impact of a health issue with Madelynn and a letter from Emma’s sister. The plot was well-written and interesting. First time reading this author and would recommend more.
