I loved this story, it has a strong female who stand up for what she believes in along with a strong male who is a stand up man. This was a clean read with lots of love and care given to this story. This book teaches us that we should always look deep at our true feelings, never take things at face value. Things are not always as they seem.You have a one night stand they never planned on seeing each other again. Faith has other plans for Lizzie and Chris they are about to become parents. Neither knows anything about the other but faith is about to fix that.For Lizzie she just wanted to step away for a few hours from being the good kid of the family. She wanted just one night that was her own. For Chris he saw a lady like no other, he just wanted to hold her. When he wakes up she is gone, he can’t get her out of his mind. For him he doesn’t have one night stands and wants more. All he has is her first name and an earring, he doesn’t know where to look. Out of the blue she shows up at his home and says we are expecting. He is shocked he knew he used protection, never once does he doubt he is the father. It takes the news well and moves on planning to be the best father he can.Lizzie is from a power oil company family, she doesn’t trust, her mother walked out when she was young. Now there is this man in her life who wants to be a dad, he is shocked when he finds out who she is. They start building a friendship which turns into more, then something happens to tear them apart. Will they overcome the pain and hurtful words, can they work through the possible lies?Lizzie is a strong female who doesn’t need a man, she makes tons of money and can take care of this child herself. She does feel the father needs to know about the baby, she hunts him down. Tells him she wants nothing from him. He has other ideas which leads to a lovely read that I totally enjoyed. Lizzie is a strong women who is caring and loving. She takes care of her family and never does anything wrong. I loved her character, she is a total sweetheart. There is nothing not to like about her, she is sweet and innocent in a lot of ways but strong and takes on the world for family.Chris isn’t happy with his job and takes a year off, he meet Lizzie in a bar but wants so much more. He is shocked to wake up and find her gone with no way to find her. When she comes to his home he is shocked to see her but loves that she is back. After the shock of finding out he is about to be a father he steps up to the plate, goes back to his full time job so he can take care of his family. He falls in love with Lizzie then all hell breaks loose and he is about to lose it all. Chris is the alpha male who is just to kind and sweet. He was raised that family comes first, no matter what he will be in his Childs life. His character is amazing he is just too good to be true.It is nice every now and then to have a book that is not full of sex, the way Harlequin use to be. There isn’t pages of pages of sex but there is sex. I give this book a 5 plus star it puts the romance back into romance. The author writes a wonderful story where you meet wonderful characters that you will love. Even the bad guy Mark is a nice guy, Lizzie’s family is a strong one with a powerful father who is very alpha. This books brings you lost love, finding love, learning to trust and a love that is powerful. Donna Alward knows how to write a story that is strong and doesn’t need sex to make it a wonderful outstanding read. She has shown us the power with words of a truly wonderful romance. I look forward to reading more of her work.
