Meet Carly Phillips:
NY Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestseller, Carly Phillips is the queen of Alpha Heroes, at least according to The Harlequin Junkie Reviewer.. Carly married her college sweetheart and lives in Purchase, NY along with her crazy dogs who are featured on her Facebook and Instagram pages. The author of over 75 romance novels, she has raised two incredible daughters and is now an empty nester. Carly’s book, The Bachelor, was chosen by Kelly Ripa as her first romance club pick. Carly loves social media and interacting with her readers.

This cute story was filled with emotion and warmth, unexpected pregnancy, blackmail, danger, challenges, drama, and so much more, and was an entertaining read.
The heart of the story comes from its loyal characters who use their influence and blessings to change lives, while others use it to destroy them. Both Taylor and Jake have beautiful, supportive families. A wealthy couple, yet you could not have met more down-to-earth individuals.
The love story that developed between Taylor and Jack felt so natural, like they are a couple of old souls. From the moment they met, the connection was there, yet they live two completely different lives, and Taylor's life currently is filled with dangerous complications.
The characters were wonderful; the intrigue & suspense kept you engaged and turning the pages, and the witty banter and smiling throughout. Most of all, the undeniable chemistry between Taylor and Jake made them a beautiful couple. From the moment Jake learned he was going to be a father, he was all in, and that is what we loved about him. He was supportive, loyal, and always in Taylor's corner, and would do anything to protect his family.

Blurb:
One reckless night was supposed to be forgettable.
Instead, it changed everything.
I wasn’t looking for trouble when I met Jack Dare in a Charleston bar.
But one look at the devastatingly handsome stranger and suddenly I wanted things I’d spent years denying myself.
Freedom.
Desire.
Him.
So for one night, I stopped being careful.
One drink turned into stolen kisses.
One kiss turned into a night I still can’t forget.
And by morning, I disappeared before Jack could learn the truth about me.
Because men like him don’t survive people like my ex-boyfriend.
Powerful. Ruthless. Obsessed with control.
The kind of man who doesn’t let go once he decides you belong to him.
I thought leaving was the only way to protect Jack.
Until two pink lines changed everything.
Now I’m standing outside his Miami doorstep pregnant, terrified, and running out of options.
But the man who opens the door isn’t shocked.
He’s furious someone made me afraid to come to him.
Jack Dare is protective, relentless, and impossible to walk away from.
The kind of man who would burn the world down for the people he loves.
And the more danger closes in around us, the harder it becomes to remember this was never supposed to be forever.
Because Jack isn’t letting me run again.
And for the first time in my life…
I don’t want to.
Perfect for readers who love surprise pregnancy, one-night stands that turn into forever, protective alpha heroes, emotional intensity, dangerous exes, found safety, and guaranteed happily-ever-afters.
