5 STARS!
O M G … I loved Brody, really, I did! But now I love Jaxon too. Who do I want her to choose? I don’t know!
Leila Matthews short-lived happiness was turned upside down when she told her boyfriend Brody that she was pregnant. Their 3 months together was over before she knew it. Her heart was ripped out and handed to her. If she hadn’t had her great friend Jaxon there by her side making her get up every day and live her life, she didn’t know what she would have done.
Jaxon Henderson AKA Remi, is a former Marine badass and a part of the Marines MC. He met Leila a few weeks before she had met Brody when she treated him in the ER. He had been asking her out, but she kept telling him no. They became friends though, even though Brody hadn’t liked it.
As they share their lives together, their friendship turns to love and they are so happy together. He’s treating her like gold and treats her unborn baby like it’s his very own. When Brody shows back up in the picture, and Jax does something to let her down, how will Leila react? Does she give Brody another chance after the way he treated her and abandoned her when she needed him most? Can she look the other way and forgive Jax for letting her down?

SYNOPSIS:
NEW BEGINNINGS
E.R. nurse Leila Matthews’s whole life turned upon one single sentence: “Brody, I’m pregnant.” What she thought would be the happiest day of her life became a nightmare as she was abandoned by the father of her soon-to-be-born child. If her friend Jaxon wasn’t there to pick up the pieces, she couldn’t have coped. Then what had started out as a deep and abiding friendship became a soul-searing love.
Yet, while Jaxon is the man of her dreams, Leila doesn’t want her child to grow up not knowing its father. The situation, a triangle involving tortured pasts and unstoppable passion, will test everyone involved. Both suitors will seek forgiveness for terrible mistakes, and Leila will soon be pulled between two powerful men: a handsome CEO who owns all he surveys, and an ex-soldier whose M.C. teeters on the brink of the unforgivable. Leila must choose the man who is perfect for her future…and for the future of her child.
