GRR Reviews The Proposition (Vol 1 of 3) by Katie Ashley

Emma Harrison came from a big family, and she wanted one of her own, but she's approaching 30, and seems to only attract losers. When even her gay best friend backed out of donating sperm for her IVF, and she's refusing to pick from the sperm bank, she's out of options... Until Aidan intervened. Aidan is the company's resident womanizer, and no one ever refused him... except Emma at the company Christmas party. When Aidan heard about Emma's "problem", he offered up himself... with a requirement... He'll be the sperm donor, but the conception must occur naturally. Yes, he will make love with Emma. Emma was initially horrified at the idea... this is basically unmarried sex, but soon she decided why not, Aidan is that charming. And Aidan proved to be a consummate lover. But as they spent month and more together, they've basically fallen for each other... if they can admit it to themselves...

The story actually ended up a cliffhanger and continues in Volume 2: The Proposal when Aidan, basically messed up. There's a reason he's the way he was... a womanizer, and he's yet to reveal why. He thought he can never commit to any woman, and Emma almost changed him, but not quite. I am not spoiling the cliffhanger, which is rather fun. I'd given this 4/5 except for the cliffhanger.
