At the moment, there is no book description at GR, so here's what I've got: Rosie is planning on getting married without her family, but is surprised to see long time family friend Steve show up. Rosie has always loved Steve. She is even more surprised when he tells her that her future groom will not be coming after all. Rosie is crushed. Not because she loved the other man, but because she was pregnant. Steve was sent by the family to make sure that Rosie did not get married to the jerk who would eventually hurt her. Steve was not sent there to marry Rosie himself. He knew that there would be heck to pay, but Steve did not see that he had a choice. He always cared for Rosie. She needs a husband and the baby needs a father. Things really heat up when the family finds out.
This was such a nice story about 2 people who have known each other and crushed on each other since they were young. Rosie's brother had told Steve that all girls were ok except his sister. She was off limits. Steve goes and stops the wedding of Rosie to another man who has gotten her pregnant. The man she was about to marry was a cheating gold digger. Rosie just wants to make it right with her parents and not be an unwed mother. Sparks fly and the journey is very sweet. It shows what a real man is like, one with morals, honour, and the will to do the right thing.
A good quick romance read. The h is dating a guy who she thinks is the one, but when she ends up pregnant he quickly exits stage right. The H , who comes from a troubled home and who has been embraced and supported by the h's family has strong feelings for her but has kept it to himself, because she didn't see him that way. He offers to take the place of the loser ex, but she see's him more as a brother than husband material.
