This steamy story had an interesting plot with lots of sex and some excitement but the side stories were a bit distracting and I didn't care for slang like 'doll'. I liked the hero's heart but heroine was sappy. Jessie is trying to get up the nerve to approach Jacob and tell him he is the father of her baby.

Like the first book this was another fun read. The suspense kept me turning page after page. And again, this is a series has dialog that had me laughing quite often. I love the brothers and their constant teasing. A lot of what they say can be considered utterly cheesy or ridiculous but I find that adds to the charm.

Seeing his brother Aron so happy in love with Libby has made Jacob want what they have. What a coincidence that baby brother Nathan dashes into the house yelling about a mermaid in the stock tank. When Jacob goes to investigate, he finds a woman, naked, in the barn and he's instantly in lust. Before anything else can happen, she disappears.

Jessie has been on the run from the couple for whom she agreed to be a surrogate. The husband had been acting strangely towards her, almost possessive. When they get the news that the sperm bank had made a mistake and she wasn't expecting their child, things changed dramatically and she decided it was time to run for her own safety. She has been scoping out the Tebow ranch in the hopes of catching a glimpse of Jacob whenever she can. She's sure he's the father of her unborn baby. At least that's what the letter from the sperm bank has told her. As she tries to summon the courage to tell him who she is and that he'll be a father soon, she gets caught in the barn on his property. Chickening out seems like the best course of action so she takes off before she can explain her presence. They're finally thrown together when she saves Nathan from drowning. He takes her back to the ranch where they can finally have that talk. While Nathan and Libby make her feel welcome, Noah is more than skeptical about her motivations and the timing of her arrival. The more time Jacob spends with her, the hotter their attraction becomes until they give in to it. Jacob wants her in his bed and perhaps more permanently in his life. Their happy bubble bursts when Noah receives some incriminating photos of Jessie along with some accusations against her. Without letting her explain herself, he throws her off the ranch. She doesn't get far before her stalker snatches her. When the McCoys learn the full truth about Jessie it's a race against time to save her life and Jacob's sanity.

The sex scenes were super hot and just what I expected from Jacob. Jessie may have had her problems and worries, but she wasn't annoying. She refused to be looked upon as a charity case, and she wanted Jacob to love her for her and not because she was pregnant. I think she managed to wrap him around her finger and make him see that that was the only way to go if he wanted his HEA.

Next up is daredevil Joseph. ( )

I liked it, even with the bad cover, all the editing errors and the million silly pet names. There is alot of steam in the book. I see potential and really do want to read the other brother's stories. ( )
