'Unexpected' by Kelly Rimmer is one of those books you read in between the 'serious' ones; a fairly predictable, best-friends-falling-in-love kind of romance which is destined for a happy ending. In this case, the best friends are Marcus and Abby, although perhaps Marcus wishes it were a little more. Abby meanwhile, has received unfortunate news that her fertility is declining fast, and wants to have a baby NOW before she no longer can! For this purpose she is hoping to enlist Luca, Marcus' gay brother, as a sperm donor. Add to the mix a long lost father making contact with son Marcus for the first time since his desertion, and you have a sensitive man with dad-abandonment issues who will no doubt be hoping that he will one day make a better job of the role!
This was an easy read, but a pleasant easy read leading to a predictably happy ending, with no nasty surprises waiting on the next page.
I give this book 3 stars.
I love Kelly Rimmer, so when I saw she was coming out with a romance I knew I wanted to read it. Unfortunately, I like more from my romances. I like unexpected twists and turns. This book was too predictable and was too long drawn out.
This is different to Kelly Rimmer's usual writing, but what an enjoyable read it was. I did guess how the story was going to end and was delighted to be proved right. Highly recommended !
Really enjoyed this book from.kell y summer and I wasn't sure what to expect. This truly is a love story with a happy ending, nice to read for a change!
I’ve always loved Kelly Rimmer’s books and until yesterday was only going to give it 3 stars as I was very disappointed. It was very repetitive, quite slow, with lots of sex and lots of swearing. I knew exactly how it was going to end and only kept on reading it to make sure I was right! But after 70% it picked up and I really enjoyed the rest of it (but I was right)
Unexpected is the story of Abby and Marcus, best friends and flatmates. When Abby finds out that her fertility issues will not enable her to become pregnant for much longer, Marcus offers to help in any way he can. As they make plans to have a baby together, they discover that their feelings are more than friendly; but will the shift in their relationship change everything between them?
An easy entertaining read. I am looking forward to the next book in this series.
Abby and Marcus have been best friends for years. But something has changed and now they see each other as more than friends but will they ever admit it to each other.
Entertaining and at time emotional read.
Looking forward to the next book in this series.
