Undeniably Yours (Hqn)

Undeniably Yours  - Shannon Stacey Book two in her series. Here we have the very used surprised the condom broke trope and unexpected pregnancy plot. What saves the novel is a very atypical courtship, a strong yet adorable and rock solid male character, Kevin saves the day. Beth, is a little harder to like. Her insecurities are shown but I didn't feel they were real. Beth's insecurities are just a plot device not really a credible obstacles. The secondary romance between Sam and Paulie is a nice counterpoint to the primary romance couple. But it's still a very used trope, combine with a weak heroine, the strong, solid male lead can save so much before I start skipping pages.
