He's discovered she's his baby's mother--so now she'll be his bride! Maribel was a shy virgin when she and handsome Leonidas Pallis shared a night of passion.

Now Leonidas wants what's his: his baby boy and Maribel, available 24/7. But the only way Leonidas will claim her and their son is if he takes her...as his bride!

I really enjoyed this one. Mostly I think because it was different. The hero was a jerk throughout the whole story in what I felt was a very realistic way. There are some guys out there who are so full of themselves and oblivious that they believe that they are perfectly justified in tossing a bone to the heroine occasionally and going about their merry way is acceptable. It was nice to see a hero who wasn't all "You've had my secret baby and now you MUST marry me even though I despise you. The heroine was pretty realistic to in expecting more from the hero then getting her feelings hurt as the guy back peddles away. She was still a pretty strong character though. When she realizes the hero is offering her at most a fourth a loaf she show more doesn't put up with it. I liked that there were moments when the hero was made to realize what a jerk he'd been. I also greatly enjoy books where the characters knew each other when they were young. No insta love here.

So if you have a tolerance for less than perfect heroes this one might work for you.
