Synopsis


The highly anticipated sequel to romcom Josh and Gemma Make a Baby. Everything is about to change. Gemma Jacobs has life figured out. She’s upbeat, positive to a fault, and the master of her own destiny. She has a wonderful career in social media marketing, lives in a trendy apartment with her fiancé Josh Lewenthal, and is pregnant with their much-loved baby. Her life is wonderful. Absolutely perfect. Except… What really comes after the happily ever after? Josh Lewenthal is laid-back, fun-loving, and always finds the humor in life. He writes a wildly successful web comic series, and can’t wait to marry Gemma—the woman of his dreams. His life is amazing. Terrific. Except… What happens when everything changes? Suddenly Josh and Gemma’s lives are turned upside down, and their love and their future together are at risk. They realize their happily ever after isn’t the end, it’s just the beginning—and now they have to fight for it.

Captivating, gripping, and full of unexpected twists and turns, this love story yanks you into what happens after the happily ever after. “…winning read about a little-discussed topic.” - Kirkus Reviews on Josh and Gemma Make a Baby


My Review


This was a brilliant story that I really enjoyed reading as there was never a dull moment. There was always plenty going on. It was extremely difficult to put down and I had to stay up late to finish reading it. I can say this is definitely a page-turning novel. I loved just how much drama this book contains. There was plenty of misunderstanding which made for a very interesting read. There were some great unexpected events and some were very shocking. I listened to the audiobook and liked the narrator's voice. The storyline was well-written, fantastic and engaging. I definitely became emotionally invested in the development of this book. This is the second book in the series but it also works well as a standalone. The characters once again were amazing, realistic and relatable. I definitely recommend reading this book as it was so much fun and you were definitely on the edge of your seat.

So much praise goes out to the author and publishing team for creating yet another wonderful story. I definitely can't wait to read more books from this fantastic author.
