Their Pregnancy Bombshell

Sara's just waved goodbye to her 19 year-old daughter and her new husband as they set off on their honeymoon. At 38, Sara's looking forward to her freedom and some spice in her life. Running into devilishly handsome Matt right in the hotel casino, Sara's life starts that new adventure. They spend three wonderful days together, then Sara must return home to her job. But before Matt can get her phone number, he's called away himself on a business emergency. Sara's disappointed but accepts that she won't ever see Matt again. A week after her return home, Matt shows up with an engagement ring! Sara's eager to jump right in. Spending time with Matt, traveling with him as he does for his business, is a dream come true. But the road gets rocky when Sara comes up pregnant and Matt realizes his footloose and fancy free life is coming to an end. This is a linked book to Pregnant: Father Needed that I read last month. Sara is Amber's mother in the other book. I really enjoyed reading Sara's story. Her anxiety with being newly married to a man she barely knows, then an unplanned pregnancy, all are real fears. Matt's not sure how he feels about a baby; fatherhood is something he'd never seen for himself. Suddenly in a span of a few months, his whole life has changed.

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Romance, Fiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.
