I have got a sweet romance for you today with Maybe Baby by Carol Thomas.
Just when you thought you had it all worked out …
Best friends Lisa and Felicity think – maybe, just maybe – they finally have
everything sorted out in their lives.
Lisa is in a happy relationship with her old flame, and busy
mum Felicity has managed to reignite the passion with her husband, Pete after a
romantic getaway.
But when Lisa walks in on a half-naked woman in her
boyfriend’s flat and Felicity is left reeling from a shocking discovery, it
becomes clear that life is nothing but full of surprises …
My Thoughts
This is a lovely, entertaining read with genuinely likeable characters and a relatable plot. I read this as a standalone and it was fine but I did hanker after reading the first in the series, just to fill in some of the blanks. I loved the friendship between Lisa and Felicity. They both have distinct personalities and lives but are thoroughly credible as best friends.
Friendship and family values, some jealous moments to prove they are human and a few humorous episodes add up to a heart-warming and enjoyable read. I even enjoyed some of the children's asides and comments which made sure that all the adults kept their feet on the ground. There are several strong male characters who add to the romance without being too stereotypical. With an easy writing style. this is a great book to settle down for a weekend read.
In short: Friendship warms the heart in this contemporary romance.
