The Baby Contract
LOVE CHILD
Why had Molly Fitzwilliam Dunlap ever agreed to act as surrogate mother for Raoul de Montfort's heir? She'd loved the handsome, honorable Parisian all her life, and she knew giving up their child would break her heart. Still, Molly couldn't refuse the mesmerizing man anything...especially not a son. Yet Raoul and their baby would never be hers.
Then Raoul realized his son needed the love of two parents, and Molly found herself married to the man of her dreams -- in name only. But motherhood was only months away, and Raoul's love -- light-years! Even though all they would do together was raise their child, Molly had the chance to show Raoul that she wanted to share much more than just his name....

One of the most crazy plots I have read from this publisher.
June 20, 2023
3.5 Stars because the OW got what she deserved.
Raoul, the H is a weak, Siobhan, an awful, cold and heartles OW and Molly is one the most doormat and martyr heroine.
Raoul should be a top alpha with all his skills and dealings in his life, instead he is a weak that fell for his cheating wife, and she easily twist him in her fingers, not only him but she did the same with the martyr heroine. She has the upper hand in her marriage. The stupid H fell in love with her thinking that she was a beautiful and sweet girl, she didn’t had sex with him after until the marriage, later he discovered that she is not a virtuous virgin, that she just withhold sex to him just to be married and the dumb H still loved her, and he didn’t even asked for divorce after 11 years of cheating, and still faithfull for the slut-cheating cow. If she were the heroine, I bet like in many books the H would divorced her, cheat on her sleeping around and make her life a hell, but she is not the heroine, she is the OW, worth his affection and faifhfulness. It’s a joke of how many H stays faithfhful with the awful OWs and still be blind but they never treat the heroine in this way, instead they make the heroine feel like dirt and living in hell. The OWs should be made heroine instead of the heroines, because most of the time they have love and loyalty from the H, something that it is lacking when concerning the heroines. This H is no more blind to the flaws of his beloved OW, it is even implied that he did not love her more, but even after eleven years of cheating and betrayal he still called her ‘My Love’, still loyal to her and still honor bond to her. It’s is very hard to believe the love that the supposed Hs have for the hs when they don’t have such loyalty from the Hs and the OWs have all them and more. The H should be divorced her in grounds of adultery if he wished, it would be easy to prove but no, he chose to be shackled with the snake, I bet he still has very deep feelings for her.
This OW is a first-class heartless, cold, manipulative bitch, how can she have so much love and loyalty from the dumb sister heroine and the H.
How can the heroine fell for the H at first sight when she was 11 years old, not only she did, when she touched him she felt a strong undercurrent of attraction while the Dumb H is very much in love with a shallow cow, the only thing that he saw in his blindness it was her exterior beauty and her false sweetness. People always think that is creep if the H felt attracted to the heroine if they are in their teens but I don’t see they complaining if it was the child heroine that always fell in love with a older guy. The OW didn’t need to have the gentleness , modesty, devotion and other virtues for him to fall hard for the OW. But to him to love the heroine she need these virtues, it’s unfair, if this heroine didn't have these virtues he wouldn't want her. Later when he said that his love for the OW was a youthful love and not a mature, I think it’s bullshit, because when he fell hard for the shallow exterior of the viper, he was a man of 27 years old not a 20 years old. And he withhold his love for the heroine until she got kidnapped, she who really deserved the love, the excuse that he gave to himself that it was pride that forbade him to give, but he gave his love to the OW freely and willingly, and where was his pride when he stayed with a cheating COW? It shows that he didn’t have pride when he was with the OW, but he have to had when he was with the heroine, then tell me who he loves more after that? In my dictionary it's the OW that always has the big prize. Although I think the love of the man who gives his love for an unworthy woman is not a big prize.
And how can the heroine be so doormat, selfless and a martyr to love her sister this way, even after she found out that the cow was using pills to not get pregnant she still protected the selfish bitch. She was willing to be surrogate because she loved her cow sister and the H,she was willing to give up her child without even thinking that her child would be raised by nannies, won’t have love from her parents, I bet that the cow would keep the child away most of the time from the H to control him and because she is wicked. The way that the cow painted it’s that the heroine will be luck to be an auntie to her own child, and the stupid martyr would get crumbs to her own child and think that still is a prize. Where are her love for her child if she let the cow get the baby?
If the cow didn’t get killed by her own fault because she broke her world to the heroine and went to her lover, she wouldn’t be killed, it’s a few times that I saw that justice is served. How can Molly believed in her sisters lies, when the day of her marriage she was cheating on the H. I bet if the stupid H caught her that they he would swallow any excuse she would give to him and married the cheater anyway. If she didn’t get killed the H would still married with the cow until the end and with the martyr child being a big family.
Did I believe that he was seeing the heroine photo when she was 11 years old? I'm not sure if I believe, when most of the photos is from his marriage to the OW. Didn't he has a more recent photo from the heroine?
How can Molly feel guilty towards that despicable and heartless sister when she married the H?
