Big problem: It’s not his baby.
When I met Griffin Cannon, I fainted. He saved me from face-planting into the gravel. He’s the rescue-y, protective type, which fits seeing as he’s a hotshot firefighter.
I didn’t think I’d ever see him after that. Until he saves me again. Just when I think maybe fate is trying to throw me into his arms, my life skids sideways in a big way. I’m pregnant. The guy who should step up skips town instead.
Scrambling, I accept a new job and move. I figure Griffin is in my rear-view mirror, yet fate brings him back into my life. I’m working for his brother and Griffin’s the newest smokin’ hot firefighter in town. He can have any woman he wants, while I’m busy learning how to live without sleep and win awards for the most-frumpy single mom ever.
And yet, Griffin wants to cook me dinner. From changing diapers to so much more, he’s there as I stumble through the stress-fest of my life. I don’t even believe in love. But when a firefighter with a heart of gold does the dishes, it’s near impossible to resist.
Griffin & Tish’s story is perfect for readers who love: protective firefighters, slow burn, he falls first, workplace romance, boss’s brother, small town gossip, emotional romance with a dash of angst, oodles of steam and swoon, and a golden retriever hero who takes protecting the woman he loves as the most important job in his life.
*A full-length, standalone romance.
This book developed in a slightly different way than I was expecting from the blurb. That's not to say the blurb wasn't accurate to the book, just that the way this one developed didn't go as I expected, which was actually kind of nice.
Griffin and Tish have a couple of meet cutes and in each one it's clear that there is an attraction between them. I also really liked how griffin, once it finally seems things may go their way, just wasn't willing to let go of Tish, no matter the obstacles or the reasons she had that they wouldn't work.
I'm a sucker for "he falls first" romances. Not that I don't enjoy others, but there is something really appealing to me in this trope, and this one really worked. I was as charmed by Griffin as Tish was, which worked out well for both of us as I really connected with the characters.
I enjoyed and recommend this title.
