Sky Watching In The Moonlight
Alexa hasn’t had the easiest of lives with her parents dying in an accident and now she is drowning in college debts. However, she’s back in Providence and has a job in the Mayor’s office and doing okay. It’s his birthday and everyone is invited to the party . She sits at the bar to get a drink and the most handsome man she’s ever seen starts talking to her. His name is Elias and he is funny, interesting, charming, sexy and just gorgeous and she can’t believe her luck. He persuades to go with him and she duly follows and he takes her to see an amazing view of their town and it’s surroundings, it’s romantic, he’s gorgeous and one thing leads to another and…Months later she realises that she needs to find him as a miracle has occurred and she is pregnant [she had been told it was impossible for her to get pregnant]!! Elias was easy to find even though she could have just phoned him she went to see him in person and he was really pleased to see her again and had been thinking of her and when she tells him of their miracle he is really pleased but wary as Alexa says that she can’t afford to have a child and will give it up for adoption and he doesn’t have to be involved. But Elias is a real man, has real feelings for her and his baby and is going to do all he can to make Alexa and their baby His!!! problems only occur when a corrupt mayor and the mafia get involved. B.B. Hamel has created such a great and unique storyline here. I loved Elias as he’s had a tough life too but is so caring and tries to do his best and makes good on his responsibilities. His friend Marko was a great friend to have but I don’t think I would have wanted to be his wife! Alexa has been alone for so long that when someone, i.e. Elias, shows that he does care for her way more than as a mere friend, it is lovely to see her blossom to know that she’s not on her own. Vito and Jimmy are scary and Jimmy really should have been kept muzzled! A great solution and ending to the story. My favourite of B/B.’s books so far.
I received a free reader’s copy of this book and voluntarily leave my honest opinion here. However, I loved this story so much that I have bought my own copy!
