When You Make It Home
by Claire Ashby
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 12, 2014
Meg Michaels, a bookstore owner, has already walked away from two cheating exes. She’s learned her lesson and has her mind set on success—until she gets knocked up. Embarrassed and unwilling to discuss her situation with friends and family, she wears layers to hide the pregnancy.
When Meg gets sick at a party, she’s mortified. Even worse, Theo Taylor, the guest of honor, discovers her secret. Theo, an Army medic wounded in the war, agrees not to reveal her condition, and the two forge a bond of friendship that blossoms into love.
Theo is soon filling all of Meg’s late-night cravings—and not just the pregnancy-induced ones. But can their love overcome all the obstacles that stand between them and creating a happy family?
This is a great, emotional read. Theo has been injured in war, Meg has a pregnancy she's trying to hide. They both have their issues that make connecting difficult but they can't help being drawn to each other. They pull together to try to help each other out. Full of tears, happy and sad. I loved the characters and the story was very sweet. Kept me reading too long. Definitely a recommended romance read.
My Rating: *****
Steam Factor: !!!!
Notes: Some language.
When she's not reading or writing, she spends her time watching extreme survival shows and taking long walks after nightfall. She has an unnatural love of high places, but still regrets the time she skydived solo. She believes some things are better left to the imagination. She resides in Austin with her family and a pack of wild dogs.
thanks so much for hosting and reviewing!
