Baby on board has a whole new meaning…

REVIEW: BABY, BE MINE is the fifteenth instalment in Taryn Quinn’s contemporary adult CRESCENT COVE erotic, romance series. This is resort owner Mason Brooks, and event organizer Emmaline Hauser’s story line. BABY, BE MINE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Emma and Mason) BABY, BE MINE focuses on the building relationship between our story line couple. Emmaline Hauser is pregnant with her ex-fiancé’s baby but Emma is desperate for a job, and during her interview with Mason Brooks, our heroine goes into labor, giving birth before she was hired for the job. Desperate to prove she is capable, Emmaline begins working as Mason’s new event organizer, a position that places her in the direct line of fire from a jealous employee but all does not go according to plan when Emma realizes she needed more time, time to spend with her new born child. What ensues is the building relationship between Emma and Mason, and the potential fall-out as Emmaline struggles as a single parent, and trying to do everything by herself.

The world building focuses on Mason’s new venture as a party boat owner. Hiring Emmaline is the perfect fit but he will quickly realize Emmaline is in over her head, and her child may be caught in the fall-out

The relationship between Emma and Mason is one of immediate attraction but Mason is Emma’s boss, a boss who is falling for the woman who makes his life and business easier. The lone $ex scenes is intimate and passionate.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting character, many of whom we met in the previous story lines. We are introduced to Mason’s hostess Gillian, as well as several employees, Emma’s brother Clint and his wife Kitty.

BABY, BE MINE is a story of family, friendships, relationships and love. The fast paced premise is engaging, entertaining and interesting; the characters are captivating and energetic; the romance is subtle and seductive.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 15, 2022

Note to self: never ever lose your pants while at the town’s lookout point…

I’m a former bad boy turned one of the newest cops in Crescent Cove. No matter what, I’m determined to earn the respect of my fellow cops—and my law enforcement family, including my older brother Brady—as the new guy.

My new next door neighbor is also my new sister-in-law. She’s smoking hot, but her personality is as combustible as the blowtorch I use to create my ice sculptures.

I should stay far, far away.

But she’s gorgeous, funny and smart. Plus, she’s just about the only one in this town as wild as me.

We dared each other to do something crazy.

Naked crazy.

And after an unexpected night that nearly got us cited for public lewdness, now she’s having my baby…

REVIEW: COP DADDY NEXT DOOR is the thirteenth instalment in Taryn Quinn’s contemporary adult CRESCENT COVE erotic, romance series. This is Crescent Cove police officer Maverick McNeill, and artist Vanessa Monaghan’s story line. COP DADDY NEXT DOOR can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous storylines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Maverick and Vanessa) COP DADDY NEXT DOOR follows the frenemies to lover relationship between police officer Maverick McNeill, and artist Vanessa Monaghan Maverick McNeill’s brother and fellow police officer Brady is about to marry the woman he loves Tabitha Monaghan, a woman who is very, very pregnant but Tabitha’s twin sister Vanessa is the bane of Maverick’s existence, and is currently our hero’s new neighbor. The sexual attraction between Vanessa and Maverick is palpable, and one night together is interrupted by the local police, and the possibility of another Crescent Cove baby. What ensues is the preparations for Brady and Tabitha’s upcoming wedding and baby, and the building romance and relationship between Maverick and Vanessa.

Crescent Cove is all about babies and love but neither Maverick nor Vanessa had ever considered one or the other.Maverick battled his attraction to the woman who pushed all of his buttons; and Vanessa was willing to offer one night together, a night that would change their entire future.

The relationship between Maverick and Vanessa is a frenemies to lover; a reluctant attraction between two people connected by marriage and blood but an attraction that was clear and apparent to everyone. With the possibility of a baby, and the joining of two families, Vanessa and Maverick threw caution to the proverbial wind, and follow their hearts to their own happily ever after. The $ex scenes are intimate and seductive without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Several of the previous story lines couples return as secondary and supporting characters including Brady and Tabitha: Luna and Caleb; Gideon and Macy; as well as Christian and Honey whose story is told next.

COP DADDY NEXT DOOR is a story of family, friendships, relationships and love. The premise is heart warming and entertaining; the romance is hot and heavy; the characters are energetic and captivating.
