Resumen del Editor

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE novel…

ABBY:

I’m falling for the father of the baby I’m carrying.

The problem is: it’s not my baby. And the broody widower is not looking for a long-term partner.

As a surrogate, the deal was that I’d only be in England long enough to give birth.

At first, the man seemed as pretentious as his name: Sigmund Benedictus. He and I butted heads.

Sig challenged my intentions, accused me of just wanting to do this for the money.

Gradually, he learned to trust me.

He even became protective. Over time, our heated animosity turned into fiery chemistry.

I was falling in love with him. But my time here had a limit. I needed to protect my heart from the devastatingly gorgeous older man who’d end up breaking it.

SIG:

When my in-laws told me they wanted to use my dead wife’s eggs to conceive a grandchild, I wasn’t immediately on board. They swore that on her deathbed Britney told them it was what she wanted—but only if I fathered the baby. Her parents insisted they would be the ones to raise it.

Against my better judgment, I agreed.

I vowed to keep my heart out of it, though.

I’d continue to pretend it wasn’t happening and live the empty, single life I’d become accustomed to the past five years since Britney died.

And despite the fact that a certain younger American named Abby Knickerbocker had awakened things inside me that I thought were long dead…

I most certainly wouldn’t fall in love with the surrogate.

different voices for characters... didn't like it

different voices for characters... didn't like it when the voices changed every few chapters xx xx xx

Loved this story.

Loved everything about this book and the reading of it. The story is very touching and keeps you interested throughout.

It Doesn’t Get Any Better!

I’m an avid reader, but even the best love stories don’t often bring me to tears. I teared up multiple times during The Surrogate…in ALL the best ways! If you’ve not read The Aristocrat, it’ll greatly enhance your enjoyment of The Surrogate should you read it first. Sig’s transformation through both books is powerful. I couldn’t recommend The Surrogate more. Fantastic vocal performances brought this story to life!

The surrogate

Love it, very spicy and it has a great story line. It had me hooked before I even got to chapter 2. Would read again and I will

Such a wonderful story!!!!!

I enjoyed this story so much! The narration was excellent as well. Beautiful transformation of Sig’s character. 5 stars for sure.

Loved 🥰 it

What a cute and unique story…. Loved the narration but I think if you need a British narrator is should be done by Shane East. Nothing against Zachary Webber. But Shane blows thing out of the park with his voice and accent. Over all the book was REAL GOOD and totally worth the credit 😍

Everything I had hoped for

I’ve crossed paths with this book many times and was impatiently waiting for more credits. This book had me hooked from start to finish. Amazing narrators. Beautiful story. My heart was feeling all of it. Loved it so much

Beautiful loss to love story

A shell of a man finds his passion. Highly recommend this story. Bring a tissue box.

Ugh! I love the LOVE 🥺

I love this book! I love Penelope’s writing style! There’s never a dull moment! Every word is genuine! As I read, things became familiar, I didn’t realize it was a sequel to the aristocrat!! Both books are amazing as standalone, but do yourself a favor and read both! The narration was top notch! Thank you for selecting the best!

Beautiful Story

Loved this book! It made me laugh and cry. I really enjoyed the love story of Abby & Sig.
