From Wedding Fling to Baby Surprise is part of Mills and Boons True Love Series.

This is another great book from this series with two of my favourite Romance Tropes - Fake Relationship and Baby Surprise!

This book was so romantic, not just with Laney’s Sisters Wedding but then the beautiful trip to Italy!

I love books with Italy in as it is such a stunning country to visit and I could really picture the scenes - I wish there had been more of Florence!

A predictable easy read. Enemy to friend to lover plus surprise pregnancy. Gianni want to buy Laney’s club whilst she does not want to sell. This is an enjoyable read but not one I would want to revisit in the near future.

I really enjoyed reading this book. Whilst it did have a certain element of predictability, and there were times when I just wanted to reach into the book and shake some sense into the characters, on the whole I found it a sweet story of the growing feelings between two characters who clearly fancied each other from the start.

I liked that Laney had independence and was prepared to stand her ground with Gianni. In many romance books the female lead falls quickly and loses their sense of reason but in this I felt Laney held her own and was prepared to stand on her own two feet if she needed to.

With Gianni, the family history was clearly something that affected him deeply and had a lasting impact on they way he chose to live his life. The story does provide some closure for Gianni but I do feel it could have had a bit more, as this had been something that he had lived with for so long and yet seemed to be resolved in the space of one conversation, which for me was unrealistic.

Whilst the ending of the story was to some extent a forgone conclusion I did feel it was all tied up in a very neat little bow, very quickly after the usual misunderstanding/fallout.

This is an easy read and compared to some romances was more my style, it doesn't include billionaires, bitchy ex's or lies, what it does have is a story about a growing relationship between two people who find things moving at a faster speed than they were anticipating.

A cute romance with some strong characters. Lacey owns her own club but feels a misfit in her family. Gianni needs to but the club to keep his dad onside. There are some good developments and the plot keeps moving at pace, between the US and Italy without much faff! The moment when the scales fall from our couple’s eyes is all rather rapid but promoted by a cousin and a brother so that the I Love You moment happens for both at once.

All thoughts and opinions are mine

Pretty classic M&B here and nothing wrong with that
Great on an afternoon off

This story is a fusion of romance tropes, notably fake romance, enemy to lover and pregnancy surprise. I like Laney, even though she is brittle at times. Her family's critical comparisons make her this way. It's difficult for her to believe that Gianni likes her the way she is, particularly when she discovers his secret. Their relationship is slow to develop, but the attraction intensifies, accompanied by emotional commitment.

I received a copy of this book from Mills and Boon via NetGalley in return for an honest review.

This started quite slow but eventually found its groove.

Laney was at times difficult to like, especially in some of the ways she treated Gianni but overall I found the story quite sweet, especially the ending

More slow burn and sweet than sizzling but a great story. Gianni was a great character and I found the finale with his father quite touching. Laney was more problematic. She was a strong independent woman making the best of an unpleasant family but she didn’t really give much thought to others and especially Gianni.

I received an ARC from NetGalley and Mills and Boon in return for an honest review. This is a really pleasant surprise. It's gentle and slow-building, but the characters are just adorable. I really enjoyed the entire story and although the heroine was overly suspicious and unpleasant to the hero at the dark moment of the book, it didn't last too long and she quickly redeemed herself.
