Caroline's Ex-Boyfriend: That slimeball attorney who was two-timing her with his own ex-wife.
Caroline's OH-Boy: This forty-three-year-old career woman is pregnant!
Life certainly hasn't gone according to Caroline Moore's carefully constructed plan. As the craziness of her situation begins spiraling out of control, she decides on a change of scenery. So off to a small lakeside cottage she goes. Soon she's shedding her designer shoes for barefoot walks, uncovering old family secrets and becoming best friends with Tori-- a woman who is her total oposite. And thanks to a handsome neighbor, she might just be ready for romance, as well.
But wait... Caroline's new oh-what-a-great-guy also happens to be Tori's ex-husband.
Very good book from the Harlequin Next line. A lawyer gets pregnant right just as her boyfriend decides to reunite with his ex and her grandfather dies. He was her last remaining family member, and while going through his things, she finds a letter which leads her to believe he wasn't her biological grandfather after all. She decides to quit her job, move, and seek out her biological grandfather. In the process she meets a group of wonderful women who befriend her. She also starts dating. Only later does she realize she is dating the ex-husband of one of her new friends! Her whole life is about to change for the better. Very sweet.

I enjoy most NEXT novels and this book was no exception. Fairly believable characters, predicatble plot written in an enjoyable manner. Steffen did a nice job.

A very satisfying read on so many levels. 43-yr-old Caroline is pregnant and unwed. When she begins investigating a mystery of her past, she finds a best friend in Tory, a divorced mom with a troubled teen son. Then who does Caroline fall for but Tory's ex-hubby! Very funny book about friendship, touching book about loss, self-discovery, redefinition of "family". Tugs at the heart and tickles the funny bone, sometimes on the same page.

I loved it. It had several ironic triangles in it that made me want to keep reading just to see what happened.

I found this a very enjoyable and complex book. OK, the reader can see the conflict a mile a way, but it was still a very enjoyable read.
