Mr. October

by Hadley Raydeen

Hollywood heartthrob Alistair Wells has been through it all—blockbuster hits, box office flops, and the relentless spotlight that comes with fame. As one of the "fittest men on the planet," he’s used to bouncing back. But when an ex suddenly leaves a baby in his arms, claiming the child is his, Alistair's world turns upside down.

Enter Maisie De La Cruz, his best friend, roommate, and the one woman he swore he'd never fall for again. A pediatric nurse with no time for Alistair's Hollywood antics, Maisie steps in to help care for the baby, while Alistair is left struggling to balance fatherhood, fame, and his growing feelings for the one woman he can’t let go of.

To make matters more complicated, Alistair’s latest role as Mr. October in Forrester Media’s Bachelor of the Month series throws his life into the public eye like never before. With sharp journalist Genesis Jones following his every move and a custody battle looming, Alistair turns to Sabian Locke, a top corporate lawyer, for help. But to keep his daughter, Alistair will need more than just a clean record—he’ll need a family.

Caught between his past and an uncertain future, can Alistair convince Maisie to see him as more than just a friend and turn their complicated bond into the family they both need?

Enjoyed!

I enjoyed the storyline and the main two characters. I love the cover and can't wait to read Reese and Genesis story.

oh that cliffhanger

Oh the cliffhanger in this one is a doozy. I’m glad I was behind so I don’t have to wait for it. This book was sweet but something tells me the next book will be nuts!
