Publisher's summary

Growing up, Jill Garrison never daydreamed about having the perfect wedding. Instead, she dreamt about having a baby. Boy or girl, it didn't matter. Unfortunately, her fiancé can't have children. Determined to realize her lifelong dream of having a baby, Jill spends years searching for a company (CryoCorp) that provides high-quality donor sperm.

Everything is right in Jill's world until her wedding day, when her fiancé leaves her at the altar to be humiliated before friends and family. She doesn't waste any time moving from New York City to California to start over. And she keeps her appointment with CryoCorp. She may never have the wedding or the husband, but nothing is going to stop her from having a baby. She's tired of everyone telling her what to do. The baby she's carrying is hers and hers alone. Nobody can take that away from her. Or can they?

Cute Love story no surprisesIn the Plot

Narrator was pretty good. Was a pretty uncomplicated story with a not so surprising ending

Cute story, hard listen.

The Narrators voice is whiny which is distracting to the story. cute story in General, and the story itself is what kept me listening. Just a bit on the predictable side.

Sorry but the performance was AWFUL. First narrator that nearly had me stop listening. Her Lexi voice grated on my nerves. She gets so shrill at times.

I had to force myself to finish, which is unusual. Especially when Lexi spoke.

This is the worst, unrealistic plot I have ever heard of. I cannot believe I made it through the whole thing.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

chicklit for real Jill gets and eye opener

Jill never expected to work so hard for the one thing in life she wanted. She never expected to have that one thing belong half to someone else. She never expected that someone else to want to be so much a part of her life. She never expected her life to go the way that it was going. Now she has a dream, a wish, a hope, and a pray all at her feet.

There were no real standout points for me in the audio, narration, or even the story. It was something to pass the time and enjoy a story while doing it.

Story was ok

This audio book is ok ish. The story is alright, it entertained and so mission accomplished. The reader was not so much,,, the voices had no distinction, she made men’s voices high pitched and whining and I had a hard time knowing when a kid was “talking” compared to adult male. I struggled right to the end with her interpretation of the voices. The story was somewhat predictable but there were enough laughs and to keep it interesting enough to suffer through the reader.
