Publisher's summary

Professional basketball had always been Nico Maxwell's dream—but a life-altering diagnosis changed his plans. When his goals were crushed, it took him some time to realize he had to live life fully and spontaneously. Instead of planning for the future with a career, wife, and family—he's taking life one day, one woman at a time.

Marketing Expert, Destiny Harlow, thought her girlfriend title would soon be upgraded to wifey. That was until her boyfriend broke her heart. She was crushed and found an old friend, Nico Maxwell, the perfect guy to help ease her heartache.

A growing baby bump was not what either expected. But was what they needed to help change their perspective on their life goals.

I need mooorrreee...

This was really good. I was expecting the mother to be a little more than extra based on some reviews, and although her approach was terrible I understood where she was coming from. Besides Destiny's ex being a jackass I was glad there wasn't a whole bunch of drama. They both had growing to do, which they did and I just need to know what's going on with them. Follow up book please!😘

A good read

I loved the story. It was cute. It’s a surprise pregnancy romance. I’m glad Nico and Destiny worked out for the best.

Enjoyable listen

Totally enjoyable listen. I loved the relationship that developed between Nico and Destiny and finally between Nico and Ms Harlow. The characters and storyline were grounded in reality, wasn’t forced on the reader and was an easy believable listen.

Great Book

This author was new to me. The narrators were also new. Both did an outstanding job and didn't disappoint!

I loved the story but not so much the narrators. I almost returned this but happy I stuck it out.
