Synopsis

They saved their marriage once—but will the future tear them apart? After a near-terminal dry spell, Lydia Richie never thought she’d learn to enjoy sex, let alone be any good at it. But here she is, attending weekly sex therapy with her husband, slowly rebuilding their marriage from inside the bedroom—and out. Things finally feel like they’re falling into place until she gets an unexpected request: her husband wants a baby. Anton Richie never dreamed his past mistakes could strengthen his marriage, but he isn’t looking back. Against all odds, he's got a second chance with the woman he loves. And after losing his mom, starting a family feels like the thing he needs to help him heal. But Lydia’s not sure she’s cut out for motherhood—her own mom certainly wasn’t—and she isn’t ready to toss her birth control just yet. As both tensions and heat grow between the couple, they find themselves at a crossroads. Can they find a path forward together, or are their dreams for the future too mismatched? This is the second book in the steamy, emotional Unmatched Series. If you like Parker S. Huntington, Kandi Steiner, or Colleen Hoover, you’ll love what this series does to your heart.
