My Review:This is book #9 in this series, but this is my first time reading any of the books from the series and it completely works as a stand-alone. I picked it up because it sounded like a fun Christmas novella and it definitely was that. The story line isn't new, but there were a few little mystical twists that I loved. I loved Josh's connection to Aimee and the baby. Describing his physical issues while he was on tour at the same time she had the baby was awesome. It made it so much easier to believe in the connection between these two people although he hasn't tried to contact her in over a year.And that really is the heart of the story...these two are connected, even though they only had one moment in time. For Josh, he's tried really hard to ignore that connection, not wanting to get tied down when his career is on an upswing. He spends ten months a year on tour...that's not exactly ideal for a relationship. But as soon as he sees Aimee again, he's a goner and that's even before he meets his daughter Kendall. I loved the way that Nikki wrote the scenes between Josh and his baby...you can literally feel their connection. This is a guy who connects soul-deep and those connections jump beautifully off the page in this book. I enjoyed it. It was definitely a fun romantic read for the holidays.
