Book Description:
Everyone has a best friend. Mine just happens to be Dr. Christian Gallagher— the gorgeous, green-eyed heart surgeon who wants to have a baby with me.
Yes, you read that correctly.
When my mother approached me on my thirty-third birthday with a brochure for egg freezing, it was a glaring reminder that my biological clock is ticking toward its expiration date. I’ve always dreamed of being a mom and had a plan — one that was destroyed when I caught my professional hockey player husband in bed with another woman.
Despite my broken heart I still believe in love. I want the happily ever after, but I also want a child desperately and won't settle in order to make it happen.
That’s why when I decided to take my mother’s advice, Christian came up with his own plan: Let’s have a baby together.
It’s a bad idea. A really, really bad idea. And yet...I can’t stop thinking about how great it could be.
There’s just one condition. Before we have sex (oh, yes, we’re doing this the old fashioned way!) Christian is adamant we go on three dates.
Sounds easy, but it's not.I thought sex would be the hard part, but the dates are only making me fall for the man I’ve known almost my entire life.
Whoever said sex doesn't change things never went to bed with their best friend.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Meadow has decided she is sick of everyone pressuring her to find someone new and settle down. Her mom gives her a brochure to freeze her eggs and plan to one day have a baby. Then her best friend surprises her with a plan.
Christian has been in love with his best friend for some time. He only plays the field to cure himself of the lonely nights. When a chance appears to have a future with his best friend - how can he not take it?
Such an amazing story! I loved the banter, and the heat. The pace was good too. These characters made me feel at home. I sure hope we will see them again. I really could not put this one down.
