This book was a mess Tae was playing too much with the guys. All the problems in this book was caused by her. She played them against each other for no reason at all. Daniel made me not like him from the jump with his wife because he let her treat Tae bad without saying anything. Daniel still held a torch for Tae and the way he acted when he found out she was pregnant was too much for me. Tae did Jax wrong when she found out about the baby and for her to lead Daniel to believe he would be the daddy even though he wasn't pissed me off. All of the problems could've been avoided if she would've just moved on. Daniel was all types of wrong trying to move in on Jax's baby even knowing the truth. The only thing that seemed rushed was the turn around Jax had coming around Tae wanting to take care of her without knowing that was his baby. Tae just wanted someone to love her and show her affection and she used it until she couldn't anymore.

I am such a Tressie Lockwood Fan and I was not disappointed by this book. I actually enjoyed it alot I would have loved for Daniel to find his special someone because he loved Tae so much and he was a sweetie and deserved happiness.

I felt bad for Daniel. He loved Tar so much and she just didn't love him the way he needed her to.I think he was a genuinely gentle,good guy. The kind that deserves a good woman.And like the cliché the good guy finished last.
Tae. she got on my nerves not telling Jax. like she was just being selfish. deep down inside she liked having both of them.
I liked Zerita. I wanna see her story. she's a real chick. and calls it like she sees it.

Suspend belief and this is a good read

Your -ex calls and invites you to his wedding where he makes it very obvious he wants you back and you are okay with this. The best man has had the host for you for three years but only acts on it now. The -ex marries and then runs around trying to sleep with you.
The romance is interesting and Jax is a great guy, but you have to wonder if these people weren't on JerrySpringer.

His Best Man's Baby is a amazing book I loved it from the beginning to end I just didn't know which guy she would end up with because all the back and forth but it all turned out how I expected it to in the end..I would recommend this book to other reader and look forward to reading more by this author!!!!!

What a fantastic read! This story is a must for anyone liking romance, you don't even have to prefer IR to have it drag you in and hold you captive. Is it any wonder I will always look to Tressie Lockwood above all others?

It was an okay read. I always liked a love-triangle theme romance especially if the jealous party here was the hero, but in this book, I guess it was too much. And I don't like the heroine! Jax was better off without her.

[SandraE · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is an ok quick read. The main character made some stupid selfish choices that made her easy not to like. I could rationalize some of her choices but not all of them which took away from the story.

4 stars. Once again Ms. Lockwood, hit it on the nose with this great story. I Love Love Tea attitude, truly my girl. But then she was getting on my nerve not telling. Still Bravo to the author.

It was nice, but a little drawn out, with Tae dragging along the process to long with whom she wanted to be with

[Kim · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cute, but I felt like I've read this storyline before. It lacked originality.

[Ragatnia Clara · Rating 3 out of 5]

To be honest, I don't like the heroine. And I dislike triangle love. Just not my cup of tea.

[Ronda Wynn · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was cute "quick read", It started it off very juicy and got a little slow in the middle and a bit "meh" at the end. I really liked both Jax and Daniel. Tae was kind of relatable.

[Chanel · Rating 3 out of 5]

A hot, sexy read.

[Flip · Rating 3 out of 5]

It was an okay story not one of my favorites A lot of things were left unsaid between the love triangle that took place.
