The Bad Boy's Baby

A fabulous second chance romance and wonderful return to Hope Springs! Emma is a smart, single mom who is hoping her current job overseeing the renovations at Mountain Ridge will lead to a better opportunity as an architect at a firm in a larger city. Emma had one indiscretion in her life, with longtime crush and town bad boy, Cam Brantley. That one night gave her Zoey, the daughter Cam doesn't know about. Cam Brantley has just returned home from the military to live out his dream of running Mountain Ridge with his brother, Heath. Cam takes learning of his daughter in stride. Of course there's a little bit of contention but based on his description in the blurb of being a "bad boy", he took the news really well and immediately bonded with his child. Cam's description as a bad boy didn't really seem to be accurate. He was a good guy who jumped into his unexpected responsibility with both feet. I have loved every book I have read by this author and this one is no exception. Her ability to connect you to the characters and not be able to put a book down until you know how it ends is extraordinary. I received a copy of the book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

Loved this story of second chance romance, but not really sure if it was romance to both sides on the one night of fun between Cam and Emma. Emma has kept a secret for the last two years of who the daddy is of her precious daughter, Zoey. Upon return from the military, Cam took one look at Zoey's eyes and new it was his daughter. I really enjoyed this story, Cam will have you laughing out loud as he learns to become a daddy. I am swooning over Cam still. Loved how they put their faults aside to become a couple, and find their true love. Great chemistry between Cam and Emma. You to, will fall in love with this couple along with Zoey!!

My favorite stories to read are the ones involving surprising twists. There are no road maps in life, it's the little things that determine the directions taken. I received a copy of The Bad Boy's Baby in exchange for an honest review. I'd like to say it was obvious what was going to happen when I went into the story and for awhile that proved to be true. Boy meets girl, boy loses girl has all been done before, but when a child is thrown into the mix it changes the dynamics of the story. In reality as well as on paper a child brings out the true nature of a person. Allowing maturity and heart to factor into decisions more than hormones. The arrival of Zoey was just a step on the ladder to adulthood for Emma and Cam. Cindi Madsen has written a light hearted jewel about love and family.
