His or Her Baby by Debra Salonen
His or Her Baby by Debra Salonen, book one in the Secondhand Hearts
series, is a wonderful, heartwarming, single mom, sweet story about dealing
with grief while dealing with unanswered questions. After the death of her sister Julia and
Julia’s husband in a boat crash, bookstore owner Sara becomes the guardian of
Julia’s baby son Brady. Ren had a one night stand with a woman he knew as Jewel.
Determined to find her again, he had his school friend Bo, a private
investigator, search for her. Bo finds out who she really was: he discovers her
real name is Julia; she was married, had a baby about nine months after their
night together, and has since been killed in a boating accident. Now Ren had
questions, mainly, was he the father of Brady.
It was
enjoyable watching judge Ren coming to grips with the situation; trying to
figure out what his future would be like if he truly was the father. Sara is
running her bookshop while raising Brady and is doing an excellent job of it;
despite the lack of support from her brother-in-law’s lawyer. She and Ren
should be enemies battling for custody but instead they bond and connect
immediately. The secondary characters added depth and support to the story;
several seemed to be trying to steal the scene at times. I’m looking forward to
Bo’s story next.
