Books & Spoons Review: NEWBORN ON HER DOORSTEP by Ellie Darkins

Unexpected delivery!

Lily Baker has dreamed of a family of her own for so long…but she never expected a newborn baby and a deliciously brooding man to arrive on her doorstep the very same day!

Hotshot charity boss Nic Johnson turned his back on fatherhood years ago after the devastating loss of his three-week-old son. Yet when he stumbles into beautiful Lily's life, something in his broken heart begins to heal… And after one magical, heart-stopping kiss, Nic realizes he'll never be able to let Lily go!

I enjoyed this heartwarming story!
The connection and attraction, Lily and Nic have for each other is baffling them both, it is instant, strong, and steady, yet a bit scary. Especially for Nic, who is determined to stay away from babies, after the tragic loss he has suffered.
But the pull they have for each other is magnetic. And with a little help from Nic's sister Kate, they soon find themselves living under the same roof. And helplessly falling for each other, despite all the obstacles.
I loved the characters, they are so genuine and real. They have their faults, weaknesses, and past hurt, but they are working on their issues, talking to each other, and being honest even when it hurts.
There are several entertaining scenes in the story, of what you might face when living and taking care of a baby, and going out in a public with one. Also the description of both London and Rome made me want to visit those places again.
But most of all, I loved reading about Lily, Nic and Rosie finding each other, getting to know each other, learning to trust, and finding a way to build a life together, forming a family together. A joyous story of love and life, while not hiding the other side of the coin of the hard work a relationship requires, the pain and sorrow life sometimes brings
