AND BABY MAKES…

Ex-navy SEAL Quinn Keelor had never been rattled by small things. After all, he'd been trained to carry out grand and highly dangerous missions. But a baby on his doorstep? Left in his protective care? This promised to become the most challenging assignment of Quinn's life….

THREE?

Until a beautiful stranger came to Quinn's aid—and turned out to be no stranger at all. But this Rachel Healey had nothing in common with the shy, plain girl who'd had a teenage crush on Quinn. Except that she'd never lost her knack with children. Suddenly Quinn's challenges multiplied. Not only did he have to keep the baby safe; now he had to shore up the fortress he'd deliberately built around his heart.

This review is from: What The Baby Knew (Silhouette Intimate Moments) (Paperback)

The last thing that Ex-Navy Seal Quinn Keelor expected to find on his doorstep was a bouncing baby girl. Quinn had been in many hot sticky situations as a Navy Seal, in fact, his last mission almost cost him his life. Instead Quinn came home with both emotional and physical scars and a ton of guilt because he was still alive and all his men were dead. At first Quinn could not get rid of the baby fast enough that is until he discovered a ring in the baby's diaper bag. The ring was the same one that all members of Quinn's seal team wore. Quinn knew that because of the ring he had no choice but to look after the baby until the mother could come for her.

In the mean time, Quinn needed some help and got it from an unlikely source. Rachel Healey had a major crush on Quinn in high school. Quinn was the highschool jock and all-around gorgeous guy. Rachel was shy and overweight. However, Rachel had grown-up and changed a lot, but she never lost her love of kids or Quinn. Rachel agreed to help Quinn with the baby girl. Quinn and Rachel never expected many things, such as, a deep connection with the baby, romance, and danger.

This was an interesting romance story with an edge of danger. I enjoyed the mystery of `who is the baby's mother' throughout the story and the revelations at the end were great. When Quinn finally came across the truth about the baby it was a total shock. Most stories are predictable, but this one was not. This is just another great story by Ingrid Weaver.

I thoroughly enjoyed the story of ex-Navy SEAL Quinn Keelor and his healing from his wounds, both physical and emotional.
The wounded warrior has his tender moments with the little baby, Charli.

I loved the humour of each, Quinn and Rachel, thinking that the child belonged to the other. There could have been a little more danger presented but on the whole the story moved quite well.
Had a few chuckles when Doug Keelor decided to talk to Quinn.
Should have rounded out [or expanded on] the differences and angst presented between the CIA and the Navy a little more. They can get quite nasty.

Understand that I do not object the temptations that the characters go through but I detest the blazie attitude that sex will lead to love and commitment [a bad idea to project in this day and age - it don't happen that way] expecially as at the time the characters have sex they have no intentions of commitment. Spoils my connections with the characters and the complete enjoyment of the story.

Still a good read - excellent characters and a well paced story.
Very Very good --M
