First of all, I vote for a new, more alluring cover!  This cover makes the story look boring and it is not.  Second, I know the secret child love story is overdone, but I still love them and enjoyed these characters and their love story.  Finally, although I liked this story, it was drawn out too long and could have used a little more editing to make it really sizzle.Leah was "the one" that got away that Ryan always regretted, and a pregnant Leah didn't want to burden an unsuspecting Ryan, so she never got in touch with him again.  At one time, Leah and Ryan were best friends that really loved each other and had one spectacular night together but then, never looked each other up again.(?)  Seven years later, Ryan ends up at Leah's workplace in new York and the old feelings are still there.  Leah intends to tell him about his daughter the first week, but it ends up being several months and by then, Ryan is angry and hurt.There is A LOT of suspended belief in this story which makes it a little aggravating.  I do like the personalities of the characters, although Ryan should have pursued Leah seven years ago as ardently as he pursues her now.  Leah's best friend, Jake is way too wonderful of a guy to be so totally invested in little Amy's life like he is.  He really is like a second mom, only he is not gay.  Miraculously, NOBODY at work ever mentions in those several months that Leah has a daughter.  There are two evil co-workers who try to hurt Leah and Jake out of jealousy, but they really do a good job messing up their relationship on their own.I would read something from this author again.Would I/Did I buy it?
