A Little Bit Pregnant

Reader's Ring, Book 5

De: Susan Mallery

Narrado por: Tanya Eby

Uh-oh. Nicole Beauman had overcome a lot of obstacles in her life, and she sure as heck had never backed down from a challenge. But her boss, Zane Rankin, presented an entirely new sort of dilemma. Sexy and charming, he was like chocolate—sinfully good, but bad for her health. Nicki knew Zane didn't want to settle down, particularly not with a girl like her, and she didn't plan to lose her heart to a temporary fling. But when a friendly date got a little too friendly, things got a little bit steamy...and Nicki wound up just a little bit...pregnant. What was a girl to do?

Narrator's vpice

I enjoyed the book. It was pretty soft, not much detail on the physical connection. The narrator's voice really bugged me though. Her voice is very sing-songy, like she's reading a Dr. Suess book to little kids. Every single sentence with the rolling vocal inflections, even when it was not appropriate for the scene. The narrator also spoke too fast. Every sentence was rushing into the next and it was hard to know who was speaking.

A Little Bit Pregnant

Nicki and Zane do not only work together, he is one of her bosses, but are best friends. She has seen his revolving door of women for years. That has not stopped her from wanting him. So when their friends to lovers does not work she backs off to trying to just friends again. That does not work when she finds herself with a lasting reminder she has to rethink her whole plan. There are stumbling blocks to overcome both people. His past and her own are obstacles that need to be addressed.

Not great

So predictable and lacking the bit of humor usually in SM books. I was disappointed!
