The first time I saw him, he entranced me and offered to help me forget my broken engagement. The second time was on a blind date with no last names and undeniable passion. The third time, I was eight months pregnant with his baby he knew nothing about. This time he’s not letting me walk away so easily.
This story, part of Fiona Cole’s Voyeur series, brings back Carina who readers met in LOVERS. This is Carina’s story and once again, this author has succeeded in writing a book that can stand alone but works so well in this series. Ian and Carina are complicated characters and the author gives readers feels, angst, humor and hot sexy times – all leading to an amazing HEA. I really loved it and highly recommend.
Right from the beginning, you can tell this story is going to be hot, hot, hot. This is my first Fiona Cole read and realized that it was part of a series, but it was nice because it could be read standalone. I didn’t feel like I was missing on any details to understand Ian and Carina’s story.
The first blind date is off the charts explosive and as you can read from the title, leads to a surprise pregnancy. Ian and Carina are later reunited and their feelings pick up immediately. But, from Carina’s past, she’s been hurt so this new relationship might be too much to handle and Ian is used to his Playboy ways. Can Carina get pass her past hurt and can Ian settle down? Will baby Audrey have both parents around?
Both lead characters were very strong willed and honestly I loved them for their personality and traits. I felt like the characters were real and grew during this story. I really liked all the supporting characters since it’s always fun to have charismatic, supportive, or antagonistic people around.
This was my first book by Fiona Cole and I plan to read everything else she writes. This book was filled with passion and oozed sex. Carina was amazing as the main character with her poise and kick ass mentality. She rocked being a sexy, single, and pregnant. Insert the delicious devil, Ian and, BAM, you have an amazing story of a family forming. Characters were well developed and the overlap with other characters from her other books was woven in just the right amount. I am going to have to backtrack to read Lovers to get the full picture of Carina’s past so I would suggest folks read in order. I am excited to continue on with Ms. Cole’s books!
I loved Ian and Carinas story. They meet over a course of several months. With the last one being where Carina gets pregnant. The next time they meet Ian finds out that Carina is pregnant. Both decide to be friends and raise their daughter. Ian wants to change that to more then just friends. But Carina is guarded with her feelings. I loved Ian’s character the banter between them had me laughing. Another is a great story that has all the feels.
4,5 another stars
Oh how I loved this book. I am officially obsessed with Carina and Ian. These two were absolutely perfect together. Another is definitely my favourite book from Fiona Cole. I loved the pace, the characters, the plot, the writing. I basically loved everything about this book. I am IN LOVE.
Overall, Another is a steamy, fun, heartfelt, sexy romance full of emotion, banter and swoon-worthy moments. I honestly couldn’t get enough of Ian and Carina. I wanted more and more of them. Their banter is fantastic, the chemistry is explosive and you just can’t help but want them to end up together.
I highly recommend this book.
Omgggggggg this series! I fell into this series by accident and I AM NOT MAD ABOUT IT! This series is steamy and rains down so many FEELS!!!
Fiona’s writing is addicting. I binge read all of these in a matter of days. Laundry and dishes piled up and I could not have cared less.
So good!
Another…. Or rather the first one??? I’m in love with this stiry since the paige no1! It was really hot adventure with the right dose of drama!
Another is EVERYTHING – be sure to meet Carina and Ian.
Another (Voyeur #4) is a lighthearted and fun read for the most part as Ian and Carina reacquaint whilst waiting for their (one night stand) baby to arrive. Once it’s here things change. And as they work together to care for their baby, their emotions are high, tender moments are frequent, and sexual tension… you could cut with a knife. I highly recommend it, you won’t be disappointed!
Surprise pregnancies in romance usually don’t interest me because there’s almost always something that annoys me. Another, however, kind of surprised me in all the best ways possible. For one, the hero chases the heroine and actually demonstrates a willingness to establish a committed partnership instead of beelining for the nearest mountain. Second, the heroine’s a boss lady with refreshing confidence and attitude, something that we need more of in modern romances.
Carina Russo, full of fierceness and feistiness, commands an office environment with ease. She’s ruthless within her career, but her love life is another venture. Following the shattering events of losing her fiance, Carina’s self-esteem has wavered, but she’s determined to demonstrate an attempt to rebuild it. It’s hard not appreciating her steadfast nature because there’s a scarce amount of self-assured heroines in romance; it’s admirable and refreshing!
“Carina, the woman who haunted me at night—and during the day.
The woman who had me jerking off more than I’d like to admit over the past eight months was standing in my office, looking gorgeous…and scared.”
Confident, notorious manwhore, Ian Bergamo’s appeal is heightened when he demonstrates an interest in pursuing genuine feelings with Carina. I found his dirty mouth to be more humorous than thrilling and his overall characterisation to be lighthearted, laid back and not that serious, though this isn’t a negative aspect; it’s a different occurrence from my standard dark anti-heroes.
“Even if you don’t want me to be, I will always be waiting to be what you need.”
Ian and Carina’s love blossoms through an irresistible slow burn, with heated sexual tension, it leaves you bewildered and entranced by its profoundness. Slow burn romance isn’t my favourite (I have no patience whatsoever), but this was fitting for this couple; it was important to establish a healthy, co-parenting relationship before jumping straight into heated romance otherwise this wouldn’t have felt realistic or believable.
“When I thought I could never love again, you made me love you.”
Fiona Cole delivered a romance that is sweet and wholesome, but hot and empowering. I’m a firm believer that we need more heroines much like Carina. Someone who has the confidence to dominate a work environment, to show that women have as much worth no matter what industry they decide to step into, but has the same real life concerns and worries surrounding relationships, self-esteem, etc.
NO SPOILERS!
Another was a sexy, swoon-worthy, funny, and entertaining standalone contemporary romance in the Voyeur series.
Fiona Cole did a great job with Ian and Carina’s story, and I really enjoyed it from beginning to end. The plot was somewhat predictable, but still very enjoyable, and I really liked the surprise pregnancy aspect.
Ian and Carina were wonderful characters with great personalities. Ian was an incredible daddy with a funny sense of humor that I appreciated. Carina was a loving mother with a big independent streak. Together, they were a perfect match, and I really liked watching their romance unfold.
Another was a funny, sexy, entertaining, and swoon-worthy addition to the Voyeur series world, and I’m looking forward to reading the next standalone, Liar.
Wow! What a fantastic story! I was hoping Carina would have a book of her own, and what a book it is! She is always trying to prove to her Father that she can work just as hard as any man, but he’s a bit old school. When she is given a present to meet up with a blind date, she is surprised to see who it is. Ian is just as surprised! Especially when he sees her at a meeting many months later looking a bit different from the last time. As these two embark on this unusual relationship, you can’t help but hope they end up together. Ian is funny, handsome and loyal and Carina is beautiful and take charge and no one will step all over her again. I loved their interactions as they made me laugh and made me cry. I love this series and this book is one of the reasons why!
Ian + Carina = YES PLEASE! Oh, after Lovers I really needed Carina to get a win, and this is it!! Carina is such a strong, independent heroine, and nothing makes me happier than seeing her find her own happiness. And Daddy Ian… *sigh* and SWOON. His daddy moments are so adorable and made my heart happy! I loved watching their banter and their story unfolding. Even though it isn’t necessary to read Lovers first, this book brought me full circle in a way I never could have imagined and then so much more!
Absolutely loved it!
This was a first read for me from Fiona Cole and it did not disappoint! This was such an emotional, sweet, heartbreaking, swoony, steamy love story. I loved it! The hero and heroine in this story are Ian and Carina. They are both have had crosses to bear. They have a brief, initial encounter at a bar after she has her heart broken by her fiance. Then fate has plans for them when she ends up on a blind date with him that turns hot and steamy, but she walked away afterwards because she wasn’t looking for a relationship after being devastated by love. Third time, she is surprised to see him working for the company she is trying to help, and has a surprise that neither one of them were expecting.
I LOVED Ian! He was hilarious, has a dirty mouth, and talent in and out of the bedroom but most of all, he is SWEET & SEXY with an abundance of patience!
Carina is smart, sassy, strong, determined, independent, and can hold her own in the boardroom. She hasn’t been lucky in love though. Along comes Ian to rock her world and shake things up. Will Carina be able to let down her walls and allow herself a chance at happiness with Ian?
This was such an emotional, sweet, and sexy read. I loved every minute of it. The chemistry between Ian and Carina was SMOKING HOT!!! My heart physically ached for both of them at times and I swooned so hard with Ian. He is one of my top book boyfriends this year! This is a must-read ladies. I could not put it down. This was my first read but it definitely won’t be the last!
****ARC generously provided in exchange for an honest review.****
Carina is one of my favourite characters in the series, she is kind, dominant, knows what she wants and hilarious so I’m so happy that she got a HEA of her own! And of course it’s with the drool worthy, alpha yet kind Ian AND THEY HAVE A BABY!! I LOVE this story so much! It’s steamy, sweet, romantic, comedic and also a bit of an emotional roller coaster, but who doesn’t love a good emotional roller coaster, am I right?! So I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this book and the rest of the series because it and Fiona are amazing!!
Another is a sweet and sexy accidental pregnancy story that will leave you satisfied and wishing for more. (It May also leave you panting and swooning all the swoons)
This might be tied as my favourite Fiona Cole book ever. I am so utterly in love with Ian Bergamo it isn’t even funny. He is sweet, and hilarious, and such an amazing dirty talker. Oh, and did I mention one of the best fictional dads ever? I swooned so hard. At times I think I was a melted mess on the floor.
Now, just because Ian is ALL the bloody things. Don’t let that fool you. Carina Russo is a freaking Goddess among queens. She is a total bad-arse and deserves all the attention Ian gives her. I loved her smart and sassy ways. Heroines are always hit and miss for me, but Carina’s take no shit attitude as well as her insecurities made me love her even more than I originally did.
This book is everything. Every. Thing! Everyone needs to read it!
IAN AND CARINA IS !!!! They are my couple of this series yet!!! It is just FANTASTIC!!! Ian has been my fav since he was introduced in the series and his book is so good. He is just so charming, funny, and the daddy version if him is heart melting. Carina is so strong and I love that she challenges him. Ian likes it easy, and the fact that Carina isn’t easy is refreshing. Ian’s love for Carina is so sweet. And the baby!!! THE BABY!!! She has the same bday as me so I just love this book in general. Another is the 4 book in the series and Fiona Cole never disappoints.
You need this sexy, hot emotional book in your LIFE!!!! Fiona Cole is literally my go to author when I need a spicy hot book and Another did not disappoint!! Once Carina finds ourt she’s pregnant and since she doesn’t know Ian’s last name she is determined to go through this pregnacy alone. But Ian walks back into her life when she’s 8 months pregnant. Ian, can I just say swoon worthy AF!! He helps Carina in more ways than one to realize that she is worthy to be loved. This book was so beautifully written and Fiona really nailed it with this book!!! This is a MUST READ!!!
Another is the story of Carina and Daddy Ian. He is the ultimate book boyfriend! The scenes are steamy and so swoon-worthy! This is a must read preceded by Lovers also by Fiona Cole!
Another is a really good romance novel. Ms. Cole really gets to the heart of a woman who is having a hard trusting and a bad break-up. I really loved how the couple went from fiery passion to making a meanful connection. I will definitely be reading more in this series.
