Okay, so he wasn’t actually my ex.

August is my best friend’s older brother, and he just went with me to Macy and Gideon’s wedding. You know, friends with no benefits.

Then we ended up having sex at said wedding.

At the reception, not during the actual ceremony. Hello, I have some manners.

We agreed to not do it again. Until I thought I was pregnant. And instead of being upset, I was happy.

Except I wasn’t. Pregnant, that is.

Then I drunk dialed August and asked him to make a baby with me.

On purpose.

I wanted to take it back. To die of shame.

But the next thing I knew, he was at my door…

Author’s note: The hero doesn’t start out as a single father, but practice makes perfect. My Ex’s Baby is a standalone romantic comedy with a HEA ending and no cliffhanger.

REVIEW: MY EX’S BABY is the eighth instalment in Taryn Quinn’s (Cari Quinn / Taryn Elliot) contemporary, adult CRESCENT COVE erotic, romance series focusing on the small town of Crescent Cove. This is furniture maker August Beck , and shop owner Kinleigh Scott’s story line. MY EX’S BABY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Kinleigh and August) MY EX’S BABY follows the friends to lovers relationship between furniture maker August Beck , and shop owner Kinleigh Scott. August Beck has been in love with his sister’s best friend for as long as he can remember and sharing retail space finds Kinleigh always on his radar and on his mind. A one-night stand following Macy and Gideon’s wedding (Daddy in Disguise #7) meant getting up close and personal with the woman he loved but August never expected Kinleigh to push away any thoughts of a future until our heroine suggest a baby, together. What ensues is the building relationship between Kinleigh and August, and the potential fall-out as Kinleigh struggles with demons from the past, and the fear of losing her best friends in the process.

The relationship between Kinleigh and August is a friends to lover…there is NO ex’s baby so the title is a bit of a distraction. August is desperate for a relationship with our story line heroine but Kinleigh continues to be oblivious, pushing August away, yet pulling him in as she battles between head and heart. The back and forth is disconcerting to our story line hero-Kinleigh’s mixed messages begin to threaten her friendship with August as August begins to rethink their time together but Kinleigh has kept her past a secret, a past that continues to control her life. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and flirty secondary and supporting characters including several couples from the previous story lines: Gideon and Macy, Murphy ‘Moose’ Masterson (Baby Daddy Wanted #5), Ivy and Rory (Rockstar Baby #6) . We are reintroduced to Sheriff Jared Brooks, and August and Ivy’s brother Caleb.

MY EX’S BABY is a story of family, friendships, heart break and love. The premise is emotional and inviting; the romance is spicy and sensitive; the characters are spirited and inspiring.

About the book: Release Date September 30 , 2019

I’m having a millionaire’s baby…

New Year’s Eve, a night of new beginnings.

Asher and I talked and sipped champagne. Eventually, we went up to my room at the bed and breakfast and…

Let’s just say when I left that room, I was no longer a virgin.

And that was it.

No last names, no numbers, no pressure. Something we both desperately needed.

Just a night of fun, with so much pleasure.

Until I was approached for a nanny position that I wasn’t sure I was equipped for.

And the man behind the curtain raising his best friend’s little girl was…

Asher.

A single dad unprepared for his unexpected responsibility.

A wealthy, powerful, conflicted CEO of a newspaper empire on the verge of extinction.

And the father of the baby I just realized I was carrying…

REVIEW: CEO DADDY is a stand alone, contemporary, adult, erotic, romance series co-authored by Cari Quinn and Taryn Elliott aka Taryn Quinn. This is billionaire publisher and CEO Asher Wainwright, and nanny/independent business woman Hannah Jacobs’ story line. CEO DADDY 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 (Hannah and Asher) CEO DADDY follows in the aftermath of a one-night stand between billionaire publisher and CEO Asher Wainwright, and nanny/independent business woman Hannah Jacobs. Hannah Jacobs was a virgin, and with no thoughts about anything more than New Year’s Eve spent with a stranger, Hannah walked away without looking back. Two months would pass wherein Hannah would meet Grandma Bess, and in the ensuing melee find herself interviewing as a nanny for Bess’ great granddaughter Lily. Enter Asher Wainwright, Bess’ grandson, Lily’s father, and the man with whom Hannah had spent her glorious New Year’s Eve. What ensues is Hannah’s discovery that she is pregnant with Asher’s child; the building relationship and romance between Hannah and Asher; and the potential fall-out as Asher struggles between head and heart as it pertains to the woman who is now responsible for both of his children.

Hannah Jacobs is an independent business woman who has raised her twin sisters since the death of their parents. Never expecting to raise a family of her own, Hannah finds herself pregnant, facing a future, that may or may not include the man with whom she will fall in love. Asher Wainwright is battling to keep Wainwright Publishing in the black, having inherited the struggling business upon the death of his grandfather but a business that is close to Asher’s heart. Needing a full-time nanny for his daughter Lily, Asher finds himself face to face with a woman who continues to haunt his days and nights, a woman he never thought he would see again.

The relationship between Hannah and Asher is a surprise baby/employee-employer romance between two people who only wanted company on New Year’s Eve. A snow storm would force our couple together but a lack of commitment would force our couple apart. The $ex scenes are intimate, seductive and passionate, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are introduced to Asher’s future business partner Vincent; his grandmother Bess; fire fighter and single father Austin Lancaster; as well as Hannah’s best friend Gabriela Ramos. Here’s hoping the authors have plans for Austin and Gabriela.

CEO DADDY is a fast paced, spicy and emotional story line; an engaging and realistic romance between two people looking for something more than a one-night stand. The character driven premise is imaginative; the romance is captivating; the characters are sassy, edgy and energetic. CEO DADDY is a heartwarming and encouraging story.
