Baby in Waiting by Jacqueline Diamond, Harlequin AR Aug08 #1223

Brooke is a walking disaster. She became involved with a freeloading married man, and then her boss’ wife accuses her of having an affair with the boss. She needs a place to live and has no money. Then she starts displaying pregnancy symptoms. Oliver is an enterprising person who is climbing up the social and financial ladder. Somehow, they managed to spark off each other. However, where will this lead?

I love the madcap Brooke; she is such a charmingly scattered-brained, sweet character. She believes the best of everybody and Oliver is such a great foil for her. The sparks that shoot off each other are palpable and it is no surprise when the verbal sparring becomes physical. I enjoy stories that revisit ‘old friends’ from other stories and introduces new ones. Very enjoyable, thumbs up read!
