Billingsley Book 5
I didn’t have a lot, but what I had I was proud of.
I was raised to keep my head down and work hard.
I followed the rules, rarely straying off the straight and narrow path.
That’s why when the opportunity to get wild and have a little fun presented itself, I jumped on it—or more like on him. The handsome cowboy from the bar.
It was one night in Vegas.
Afterward, all I had was the memory of his body pressed to mine and the hotel room key I swiped as I snuck out.
I never expected to see him again.
I definitely never imagined he’d show up in my small hometown seven years later, only to discover the daughter he never knew about.

My Review:
To be honest, I didn’t think we would get the opportunity to come back to Billingsley for new stories. I’m so, so, soooo happy that we do! Single mom, Melanie, is a fierce mamma bear. A good girl who went wild one night and has stood strong in the face of the consequences every day since. But when the consequences are as adorable as Avery, it seems like that might make it easier to be so strong. Nash’s best qualities remind me a lot of Tucker and Tim. It’s maybe not a surprise that they play guest starring roles in this book, then. Normally, I’m not a big fan of secret babies and the particular types of drama and tension those stories create. However, there was just something about the way this book has done that theme that overrode all my cautions and made me love it. There’s a lower angst level than I usually associate with secret babies, and both Melanie and Nash are pretty mature in the way they handle it all. They’re not perfect though, don’t get that mistaken idea. They still make more than enough stumbles and missteps to make me wonder if they’d ever sort out their differences. And make me cheer all the harder when they finally do. Now that we’ve gotten to meet some of Nash’s extensive family, I can’t wait for the opportunity to read more about them.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author through Valentine PR & Literary Management.

About Melissa Ellen:
I'm an indie author that focuses on contemporary romance with a little bit of everything: humor, angst and sometimes suspense. I went from designing buildings to crafting stories.
I grew up as a bookworm, reading anything and everything and still try to read at least a book a week. I've always had an active imagination. Luckily, I now have time to put it to excellent use into stories that are constantly swarming around in my head.
When I'm not writing, you can find me relaxing on my porch with my husband and son or tackling my latest DIY project.
