Sorry *Spoilers*
I realize that not very writer will be a NYT Bestseller, therefore I was not expecting a whole lot when I began reading this book. While everyone can appreciate a Cinderella love story, it was beyond unbelievable. The book moved at such a fast pace at times that I don't see how we were suppose to believe what we were being told. I for one couldn't imagine as a Black woman deciding to move in with two white strangers just because I was pregnant by the third. Lance ability to stay hidden from the action throughout the majority of the story made it impossible to believe that Oliver's love for Grace was real. How could you let the woman you love deeply, quickly become one with the brother you knew for a fact was beyond irresponsible and just overall mean. I gave the book two stars because it was easy to follow and it sparked my attention.

I think my favorite part of this book was the epilogue. A very good ending to the book. Other than that I will say the book had no true flow. The characters were likeable but how the story progressed and flowed was just flat. But I guess it was an okay read.
And as always……Happy Reading!!:)

It deserved ten stars

3.00 stars. My first book of this author and I found the book to be an okay read. The opening scenes of the book revealed that the primary focus of the story would be to establish the differences between the brother's morality, integrity and disposition, Lance Carter is an irresponsible entitled womanizer, while Oliver Carter is dependable restrained and resourceful. The brother's moral compasses did not seem to be polarized by sibling rivalry, so I was not expecting a love triangle involving the brothers and the heroine, Grace Jordan. Although the act of impregnating Grace as described in the story is called a one night stand, it read like rape. To move the storyline to its ultimate conclusion, the author told readers that there was and immediate and mutual attraction between Oliver and Grace; to further move the plot and get Grace living in the Carter Estate where Grace's and Oliver's love is to bloom, the author diminished the story's heroine. Grace came across as an addlepated nin-com-poot, a young woman with little education, no goals, ambitions or plans. In the end, Grace and Oliver prevailed and were celebrating 25 years of married bliss with their 4 children. They limped and struggled through the pit falls of Lance's efforts to separate them and to capture the bulk of his father's fortune.

This book was absolutely nauseating to read. Initially I thought it was just corny but as the story developed i became disgusted with it. All the conflict is built on miscommunication. As if that wasn't enough the FEMALE author has to create a stupid FEMALE lead. Her constant ignorance for the sake of a sub par plot is truly disheartening. By the time she agrees to leave her baby I'm so utterly repulsed and that this trash was created by a WOMAN truly pisses me off. Never write again if you are going to produce trash like this. Literature lives on forever and this kind of bull never needs to be reproduced. It's hard enough for women without other women producing books that reflect badly on the entire gender. Is it so difficult to actually take the time to think of a solid plot where you don't have to sacrifice the intelligence of the female lead to manufacture conflict. You went to far and you should be ashamed to even have your name associated with this crime against women. I wish I could give this piece of shit negative stars and burn every last copy to wipe it's existence from the face of the earth. That's how much I despise books that sacrifice the female lead for mediocre drama. But to have her ignorance go so far as to abandon her child says more about you as a woman. Never write again because you suck.

Not My Cup of Tra
The premise wasn't believable. Who would just immediately accept strangers claim of paternity without proof. That didn't come until much later.
Everyone was A look nice and accepting except Lance who was an A'hole, but he was believable.
Didn't really enjoy this and I'm happy it was only 10 Chapters.

Thank goodness for family!
I loved this romance and the story would probably not be in my all-time favorite tales, but I really enjoyed it from start to finish and would recommend it.

Ehh...
The story was kind of unrealistic in my opinion, the progression of Oliver and Grace’s relationship was laughable. How easy they were fooled by Lance was downright unbelievable. Just a mediocre read.

Good
Brother Lance was a manipulator. All he cared about was money and his selfish ways. Well we do eat the fruit of what we sow. He losted it all because of it.

Communication
Communication was lacking amongst the characters. Lance needed to be put in his place a long time before it actually happened.

Well
I would have liked to know where sleaze ball Lance disappeared to. He made the story super interesting. Grace to me was a slapper

FairyTale HEA
This is an interracial FairyTale HEA. That ultimately affects the lives of Grace, Lance, Oliver, Henry, & Mason. There implication are felt for a lifespan.
These four live, plus one in the end, takes on interesting turns from one night of events only one of the two involved can completely remember. I enjoyed the initial contact of Oliver and Grace. I love the connection that he felt upon meeting her. Not withstanding the way they came about meeting. There was a connection between the two. There were points that the story flowed then it felt as if things were moving too fast. But ultimately I felt the story was amazing. There were a few points that I wanted to pull Oliver aside and ask him WTF. Then the other times I just wanted to knock Lance out. He was just way too self absorbed.
In the end, Henry set things to right.

Contemporary rich guy that you never see working finds love with the pregnant one night stand cast off from his brother.
I've read a lot of fluff etc... in my many years, but this was particularly silly. The evil brother had nothing but evil and selfishness which almost put him into the fantastic because it was too crazy for reality. I liked the lost little preggers lady, but she was run over so many times by everyone but Henry (and only because Henry wasn't really paying attention).
Didn't like any of the character or the crazy situations like moving in a total stranger into your home and life only because she says that she is pregnant with someone's child. Too crazy!
200ish pages and kindle freebie (I wouldn't pay for this silliness!)

Very good contemporary billionaire romance
4 stars I think it's always good when an author can make a reader have strong positive or negative feelings towards a character. Lance was someone who was a spoiled jerk. Grace was sweet but her one night of drinking too much came with consequences. Lance walked away from her for months after finding out about the baby. His brother, Oliver turned out to be the more mature if the two. They started as friends and fell in love in spite of the pregnancy. The book keeps throwing new scenarios at you when you start to think the book is ending. Also know, I loved the epilogue. It's not something we often see, thanks. I look forward to reading more of this authors books in the future.

Way to repetitive
This book was almost painful to read. The dialog between Grace and Oliver was way to repetitive. T h eyes would say the same thing to each other two or three times in the same paragraph. Oliver's brother, Lance, was an A1 a** and I could not believe how Grace and Oliver put up with him. Main characters are pretty well developed, but very weak. Story is okay, but I wanted to slap Oliver and Grace at times for letting Lance get the better of them and for being so sappy. Not a fan. Will not be looking for more from this author.

This story only gets 1 star
I give this story one star and that it only because I can't write a review without any stars the main character grades with an idiot a complete idiot from the beginning it showed how Lance was selfish. But I continue to read and see my disappointment it just showed how idiotic all the characters were. There's just so much that is wrong with this book that I don't have enough time left after reading this to write about Lacey please do better next time. This story was beyond disappointing and a waste of time.

Heart warming and emotional
Oliver was what every woman would hope to marry. His love was pure and it was a completeness. Rich and his family values made him all the more alluring. His father was what men of today should strive to become. Wealth was for material conveniences, but family was the wealth per his fatherly wisdom. The older brother was what placing all value on money breeds...disaster in the making. A great love story.

I enjoyed this book. It was refreshing to find a bad boy billionaire who doesn't change for a woman or a baby. Lance stayed true to his bad boy nature. I did like the fact that his family stepped up and helped. I loved how they found out what Lance was up to and sent him on his way. Life can be strange and unforgiving at times and yet we can end up with a happy ever after.

For the most part I like this book it was nice that not all the family were cynical in thinking Grace's baby was not Lance's. It did irritate me that other forces decided to make decisions for Grace without discussing it with her. Both Oliver and Henry decided she should marry Lance without asking her if that is what she wanted but overall it was a good read.

Okay read
This book was an ok read. The story was a quick one to read. Grace ended up with everything she wanted and needed and good riddance to lance. Oliver stepped up in a way no other brother would.

I wasn't keen on the writing style, it just didn't flow very well at all. I did like the characters but found it hard to believe their story. The best part of the book was the epilogue. For me it was just an ok 2☆ read.
November 12, 2015
Overall I enjoyed the book and the characters. One of my favorite parts of the book was the epilogue. So why didn't I give it more stars? The flow of the writing was a little choppy and the transition of POVs was a little confusing.

This story was beautiful. I met tell you how much I hate lance tough. Every part of me hates him. Oliver in the other hand is someone who I can see my self with. This book is so passionate but it's also heart breaking. You must read the whole story the see the true value of it.
November 21, 2015
Thus was a different take on a story. I thought lance was selfish and it took his family way too long to figure it out. I liked Grace and Oliver I just wish that tgey did not allow others ie....Lance make them feel like they were the ones in the wrong. all in all good book.

Good
Lance was a total tool! I felt so badly for Grace, to be treated the way Lance did. Oliver his younger brother and truly a good man stepped up and was all the man Grace needed.

Not bad
I was very interested in this book. It had a lot of happy parts and when the drama kicked in it wasn't just a simple fix like some books, which is rare when it comes to romance books. So bravo.
