When I started this book it had 3 UK and 3 US reviews, all were 5 star so I figured I was in for a spectacular read and I must say I wasn't disappointed.Sorcha is 3 months pregnant and Bruce the father of the baby has left town with no forwarding address in order to track him down and in the interests of secrecy she enlists the help of her best friend Lacie. Sorcha sends Lacie to hire Shep a private investigator she used to date, Lacie never having met Shep hires the wrong guy and is very troubled by the attraction she feels toward him, Ryder feels the same attraction but since Lacie thinks he's Shep who dated Sorcha...phew yes and this is just the first few pages, things are messy and confusing.Now I have to say I worked out who the bad guy was about half way through this book but that was less to do with my detective skills and more to do with reviews mentioning how completely surprised they were so I was looking for someone who fit.This book has a bit of everything, friendship, love, romance, betrayal, mystery, the list goes on, it's certainly entertaining I can honestly say I was never bored or even considered skimming.Why not 5 stars, well there's a couple of 'too stupid to live' moments which you could argue are minor and yes they are but for me they were silly and just took the edge off a bit, this book certainly didn't need them. This aside this is a wonderful entertaining read and it's free.
