Jeff met Kelly began their relationship with a lip lock when he performed CPR, and remained in a similar lip lock for the entirety of his two-week leave. The following eighteen months were reduced to postcards and a single five-minute phone call, but Jeff couldn't forget Kelly, and eagerly looked forward to his leave so he could return to her arms.
Jeff never expected to be met at the door by Kelly's enraged brother or his three backups on the front porch. And he wasn't prepared for the second female to capture his heart, much as the Kelly had done. Now Kelly's the mother of HIS BABY!, and Jeff determined to do the right thing. Too bad she doesn't see it his way.
Maureen Child lends a delightfully vivid spin on this classic plot in HIS BABY! The heroine's fierce independence and willingness to remain in Jeff's life without demanding a career change provides a refreshing and sparkling characterization. The vividly realized scene with the new father asleep with baby on his chest and fierce, Kelly's brother asleep nearby is wonderful! Indeed, These powerful characters, including the overly protective brothers, result in a superb read, making HIS BABY! highly recommended.
The characters were real - well "fleshed out". Each with a history and a life all their own. As a reader, you understand what motivates each of them - yet as the reader, you're helpless as they hurt each other and you wonder over and over - will these two find true love?
Of course, they do - wouldn't be much of a romance novel if there were no happy ending, hmm? But Jeff and Kelly's conflicts were so deep-seated in who they were that their "happy ending" seemed, at times, to be unatainable.
This is a great book - one I truly enjoyed reading.
