The Proposition #0.5-3
The Proposition Complete Series
Included in The Complete Proposition Series are three full length novels and two novellas. Aidan and Emma's story in The Proposition and The Proposal, along with the novella, The Party. Megan and Pesh's story in The Pairing, and Casey and Nate's story in The Predicament novella.
THE PROPOSITION
With her thirtieth birthday looming, Emma Harrison finds her biological clock clanging and the elusive knight in shining armor yet to appear. Enter resident manwhore, Aidan Fitzgerald. After Aidan learns of Emma's predicament, he is quick to offer a proposition that will benefit them both. He will father Emma's child, but she must conceive it with him naturally. Not one for hook-ups or casual sex, Emma is reluctant to take him up on his offer, but his charm, coupled with her intense desire for motherhood, wins out.
Soon their baby-making sessions become more than just physical. Aidan can't seem to walk away from her while Emma begins to wonder if Aidan could be the one.
THE PROPOSAL
In the weeks following Aidan’s betrayal, Emma has tried her best to move on although Aidan isn't going down without a fight.
But fate intervenes when premature labor forces Emma on strict bed rest for two weeks. Aidan steps forward with a shocking proposal. To prove his love and commitment for her and their unborn son, he will take a leave of absence from work to care for her around the clock.
While she is touched by Aidan’s attentiveness and tender loving care, Emma is thrown for a loop by the amorous attentions of ER doctor, Alpesh “Pesh” Nadeen. Pesh is everything Emma could ever want—successful, stable, and ready to settle down and be a husband and father. Pesh wants nothing more than to win Emma’s heart, but she is not sure she’s able to give it.
Her heart may still belong to the very man who broke it—the one who is so desperately trying to win her back.
THE PAIRING
After her former boyfriend left her pregnant and alone, Megan McKenzie swore off men. She spent the last eighteen months focused solely on her son, Mason, along with finishing nursing school at the top of her class. Although she’s not ready to complicate her life with a long-term relationship, a nice no-strings attached hook-up is just what she needs. At her godson, Noah’s, baptism, she finds the perfect candidate in the soft-spoken godfather, Pesh Nadeen.
For Pesh Nadeen, the very sight of Megan sends him into an emotional tailspin. Since she reminds him too much of what he has lost, he wants to be out of her sight…at first. When Megan is assigned to work in his ER to complete her nursing clinicals, he sees it as fate, but she’s having no part of it. She only wants a physical relationship while he wants far more.
What happens next is a sexy game of cat and mouse to see who will break first or if both of them will eventually get more than they ever bargained for.
THE PARTY
Revisit the infamous party where Aidan and Emma first met
THE PREDICAMENT
Unlike her best friend Emma Fitzgerald, Casey Rossi had never been overly maternal. She much preferred parties with Patron to Pampers and pacifiers. Most of all, she enjoyed a healthy sex life with her husband, Nate. But all that changed with the birth of their daughter. While motherhood is a thrilling, new adventure and her love for Nate grows even stronger seeing him be a wonderful father, Casey can’t ignore how stagnant things have become between her once steamy sheets. No matter what it takes, Casey is determined to resuscitate her flat lining sex life.
Will any of Casey’s intentions be successful at reigniting her lost bedroom heat, or will they fail and cause matters to fizzle even worse? It’s one hell of a predicament.

Overall this bundle was good.
The Proposition and The Proposal had some angst and drama but to me The Pairing was just one big happy story.
I kind of felt that in some parts, it just needed more.
As for the two Novella’s, I wasn’t a big fan.
Also, get a NEW EDITOR!!! I can’t tell you how many grammatical errors there were. It makes reading very frustrating.

I don't too much care for Emma. She wanted a lot from Aiden, even after he told her what to expect. Then she went on to hurt him after hurting her. He told her she was using someone else to get back at him but she did what she wanted. They both messed up but it was a clear bias toward blaming Aiden. I haven't read the 3rd book (The Pairing) yet because it's about Megan and Pesh but I no emotional investment in them was created.

That was certainly an interesting read. Aidan and his manwhoring ways were a challenge but I'm glad he had Emma to help him see the light! But my absolute favorite was pesh........how many gentlemen are left in the world? Its refreshing to read of this type of person since its like the unicorn in a story. Pesh and his patience was very endearing to me........not many men are that way. I loved it.
