Oh so cute. I really did enjoy this fast and cute novel by Victoria James. I liked the romance, and the baby-aspect. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy in the heart location. There were some parts of the story that I felt could improve. Mainly I thought the romance happened pretty quickly, and then ended really wasn't explained very well. I felt like the climax of the novel wasn't really a climax at all it sort of just fizzled out. One minute you thought there was a big moment where they were going to need to fight for what they wanted and then it just passed over that part. It was a good, cute, and romantic light read, but I felt there wasn't too much emotion that was reeling me in. My favourite moment was probably when Jackson and Hannah first meet and Jackson is quite the jerk, then he tries and to make up for it. I loved how Hannah could break Jackson down and make him into a warmer and more loving man, and, although fast, I did really enjoy the evolution of their romance.Good:Jackson--A good guy deep down that was just trying to make a life for himselfBad:Hannah--I wasn't a big fan of Hannah, especially near then. I just started questioning her character and didn't quite understand how Jackson wasn't questioning it as well.Sadly some of the story was lacking in general. I didn't feel the love, probably because I thought it came quickly, and I didn't like that the climax was sort of skipped over and never really dealt with.Overall (Writing style, story line, and general):Overall the writing was easy to follow. I never tripped up or was really confused, and overall I did enjoy the story. I just wish there was a little more detail and depth to really get me involved.This book was provided courtesy of the author/publisher for review; however, this is no way affected my review.
