From Dare to Due Date

Sugar Falls, Idaho #3

by Christy Jeffries

THE NIGHT THEY MADE A BABY

Mia Palinski had never even considered herself the kind of girl to have a one-night stand. Yet there she was, in a big-city hotel room, wrapped in the arms of a handsome stranger she simply couldn't resist. Now she's pregnant, and she has no idea how to contact the father—until he shows up in her hometown of Sugar Falls.

The man she knew only as "GP" is Dr. Garrett (Patrick) McCormick. The ski town's newest orthopedist has literally just opened his practice when Mia walks through his door. And although he is surprised at her announcement, he's ready to jump right into fatherhood. Mia, on the other hand, is wary. Doctor Daddy seems wonderful, but can she trust Garrett with her heart when he won't reveal his own?

I felt somewhat differently about this book than others did. In my opinion it got off to a slow start and that could have been rectified a little if we would have been privy to their first intimate encounter instead of a fade to black in the bar sharing a kiss. Then we were forced to wait until the end of the book for any other display of affection.

I felt for Mia and the tragedy she had suffered through but it was past time for her to move forward and put it behind her. I am surprised she had not gone to therapy to learn how to deal with the constant fear. I know it changed her life but when one door closes....and I would have thought she would have been grateful that throughout the attack she had not been raped which is what I thought happened. I thought she treated Garrett very poorly for most of the book and would have loved to actually see the love grow instead of 'poof' and there it was.

Garrett was a very likable guy but I was disappointed towards the end when he was going to let her go...to protect her! I wish others didn't always think they knew what is best for us. We do have minds of our own. All they need to do is talk to us about it instead of thinking they have it all figured out....especially when they're usually wrong. Of course, that wouldn't make much of a story if they did the sensible thing.

I think I will let this book be the conclusion to this series for me. Each one I have read seems to move a bit slower than I like and I was impatient with the long wait for a relationship to build.

From Dare To Due Date by Christy Jeffries a Sugar Falls, Idaho series. Mia Palinski was out of town and had a one night stand with a stranger. She has never done anything like this before. She left the hotel before he woke up the next morning. As it turned out he is Dr. Garrett McCormick and he is opening an office in Mia's home town. In fact Mia's two best friends, husbands are good friends with Garrett. Mia found herself pregnant from that one night stand. A very good read.

I liked this book, but it was a little slow at times. I did like them adjusting and working their way through the changes. I liked both characters, though Mia was a little standoffish longer than I think she should have been. Overall, enjoyable.

Pleasant, well paced story with likable, good common sense characters and some fun secondary characters. I would like to read more in this series.

It was cute, but the characters were so bad at communicating with each other for the entire book and were suddenly forced into a situation where one proposed and the other said yes.
