Kalia Beck always dreamed of starting a family, living in a house with a white picket fence, and finding her soul mate. Just not in that order. Kalia is coping with an unplanned pregnancy when she learns the father has passed away. She soon finds out that single parenthood isn’t easy, especially when the only thing that soothes the baby is the guitar-playing of a reluctant and reclusive next-door neighbor.
Mack Challen, lead guitarist in a rock and roll band, knows it takes a village to raise a child. He just doesn't think there's a village big enough to help “gay momma” and her screaming baby.
Kalia and Mack aren't looking for love and aren't ready for each other, but when the future unfolds, it’s … Perfectly Unpredictable.

Award-winning author Linda O’Connor started writing romantic comedies when she needed a creative outlet other than subtly rearranging the displays at a local home décor store. Her books have enjoyed bestseller status. When not writing, she’s a physician at an Urgent Care Clinic. She shares her medical knowledge in fast-paced, well-written, sexy romances – with an unexpected twist. Her favourite prescription to write? Laugh every day. Love every minute. Linda hangs out at www.lindaoconnor.net
The story began with an unexpected or unpredictable event, which brings heartache to those who read it. Alexander began as the love of her life and then later the guiding spirit that helped her find the man her and her son were meant to be with, Mack Challen. However, Kalia Beck is a character that you can easily identify with, she is persistent, strong willed and a caring person. Though life through her a major curveball she withstood it with understandable fear mixed in with amazing courage. Mack is not sure what to make of the woman next door, however, she had her tiny son ultimately worm their way into his heart. I found it adorable that the writer Linda O’Connor made it to where the only way for the baby to sleep was by listening to Mack play the guitar.
I was immediately hooked on the story when I read an excerpt on Linda O’Connor’s blog recently. Once getting the book I found that I could not put it down until I finished it. I have not read the rest of The Perfectly Series but they are definitely on my to be read list.
From love at first meet, to a night of passion…it happens sometimes, but what happens next sent me into tears. What follows is love, confusion, regrets and then a new chance at love.
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll be so glad you read this. Astoundingly fabulous!
Linda O’Connor (no relation to me) has gone from really good to a great author!
What a great book! It is a heart warming story of love lost and found. It was fun reading and catching glimpses of the characters from the other Perfectly series books. I loved the characters, it would be so much fun to know different languages and be able to play an instrument and write music. A match that is totally unpredictable!
