The Baby Dilemma-Jacqueline Diamond

The Baby Dilemma


Jacqueline Diamond

Harlequin American Romance, Apr 3 2012, $5.25

ISBN: 9780373754045



In Safe Harbor, obstetrician Dr. Paige Brennan wants a baby, but prefers no man in her life. Thus she chooses artificial insemination. She may have reconsidered if she knew the sperm donor was Mike Aaron who called the six- footer an amazon (see Falling for the Nanny). Their next encounters were not much better.



Paige needs a roommate while Mike needs a room since his brother is married (see The detective’s Accidental baby) and does not need a chaperone. Reluctantly, she allows the irritant private detective to move into her place though she sets rules. As their attraction grows, Paige begins to believe Mike is the anonymous sperm donor while Mike begins to want to become the father of the child she carries by marrying the mother.



Although the plot has been used frequently, fans will enjoy the roommates’ gender war as Jacqueline Diamond returns to Safe Harbor. The romance between sleuth and the doc is fun as an unborn serves as the matchmaker between two fighters falling in love.
