New Release: My Unexpected Surprise by Piper Raynethree-half-stars

Cocktails and Books received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.

My Unexpected Surprise is a solid entry into the Greene family series. This time we see Fisher (the sheriff) in the starring role with Allie (a Bailey series secondary/crossover character).

This was a well written and entertaining read, but I have to admit that some of the character and emotional development seemed to skim the surface. As Fisher and Allie dealt with their β€œsurprise” he said and did all the β€œright” things, but his evolution to get there seemed to be condensed into several conversations. The way Allie’s character evolved seemed more organic and realistic to me. I rooted for these characters and found myself hoping they would find a happy ending to their journey.

As the 5th book in the Greene series, Fisher and Allie are surrounded by a large secondary cast. The duo behind Piper Rayne do an excellent job of managing this cast so that all of the various Greenes (and a few Baileys) don’t overwhelm the core story. Loyal series followers will appreciate a few cameo appearances and there are several teasers for future potential stories. I am definitely curious about who will have a book next!

Release Date: December 14

I never thought of myself as dad material.

 

Until my one-night stand showed up in my small Alaskan town five months pregnant.

 

But I don’t shy away from responsibility. First, because I’m a Greene and not to boast but we’re kind of a big deal in Sunrise Bay. Second, I’m the Sheriff.

 

I couldn’t have predicted how protective I’d become for the safety of her and my unborn baby to the point of asking her to move in with me and be my roommate.

 

Just when I think I have the situation under control, another surprise knocks me over, but it only spurs me to double down.
I’ll be the first to admit, I didn’t think it through. Somewhere between the dinners, the TV show binging, the doctor appointments, and me walking in on her naked, lines blurred.

 

In what feels like warp speed, my bachelor for life status is in jeopardy and I’m fighting for the most important thing of allβ€”my family.
