How to Ruin a Life, Part I:Get drunk.Hook up with a gorgeous co-ed.Have an unforgettable night.Try to forget it anyway……until Astrid Andrews’ pregnancy test comes back positive.And suddenly, her prospects for finishing college aren’t looking too good.How to Ruin a Life, Part II:Don’t tell the father.Have a beautiful daughter.And let the father’s overprotective, overly wealthy mother step in … father.
Have a beautiful daughter.
And let the father’s overprotective, overly wealthy mother step in with an offer Astrid can’t refuse:
Walk away. Have her child, have her business, never bother the father again…and neither Astrid nor her daughter will ever want for anything again.
It’s too good to pass up. Even when Astrid can’t forget that one steamy night, and the man who shook her world in ways that had nothing to do with the liquor.
How to Ruin a Life, Part III:
Find out Dr. Wes Anderson is back.
All grown up.
And with no idea that the nine-year-old girl clinging to Astrid’s leg is his.
Nearly a decade ago, Astrid made a deal. She honors her promises. But there’s something distinctly dishonorable about the way Wes makes her feel–especially when he makes it clear he wants her back, and he’s not taking no for an answer.
Astrid knows she should stay away. If she doesn’t, she could lose everything–her business, the future she wants for her daughter.
But her baby needs a father.
And her body needs Wes’s touch.
He’s forceful. Commanding. Taking control of her senses, until she’s making all the wrong decisions in all the right ways.
He’s an absolute menace. It’s no wonder she thinks of him as Dr. Bully.
But what will happen to her future, if she tells her doctor about his secret baby?

Astrid and Wes are college friends with benefits, but they’re a little light on the friends part, and mostly working on the benefits. One birth control failure later, she’s pregnant, but unable to get in touch with him. His mother intercepts a letter to him, and “convinces” Astrid to accept her offer – Astrid will get financial support for herself and her child if she agrees to not contact Wes or let him know about the baby. Ten years later, his career brings him to her hometown, working across the street from her little flower shop. She tries to stay away from him, but… I love this book – it’s the best one so far in this series. Astrid and Wes have unbelievable chemistry together. Daise is just a little doll, such a sweet girl. I have trouble with both mothers. Her mother is so unsupportive when she gets pregnant, and his mother – well, what she did is despicable, and the word she used to describe Daise is just horrible. But the story and the love between Astrid and Wes – just beautiful.

Astrid meets Wes. Wes and Astrid share a night together a long time ago. From this night, they create a baby. Following along? Great! Astrid doesn’t tell Wes about the baby because someone else decides to “intervene” to help Astrid and Wes out. For years, Astrid has thought about Wes and we know that Wes still thinks about Astrid. He wants her back, but she can’t go back to him. Why can’t she? Well, that’s the mystery and hence, “the secret baby” aspect of the story.
My thoughts: Wes is a really nice guy when it comes to finding out the truth and especially towards the person that created a bigger mess. I personally would’ve been livid, but Wes doesn’t seem to be as angry. Astrid, for her part, took forever to decide whether to tell Wes the truth. Seriously, I was fretting that the book would end without her telling Wes. I was almost annoyed.
No cliffhanger and an HEA! However, there are still some tensions with the initial person that created issues. Wes and Astrid both struggled in the book at times with the weight of the situation. However, they eventually got it together. Oh! There’s a “Dr. Bully”, but I personally didn’t think it was Wes. You’ll have to read the book to find out more.

SOOO this book didn’t give me all the emotions or thrill me. It was a quick read though so that wasn’t really a problem. The story line was pretty predictable and that was a small let down, BUT it was still a good read and it was a good book to read during my “me time” while the kids were at school and the toddler was napping. So that is why it gets 4 stars, thank you Larissa de Silva for helping me pass the nap time quietly with a good book!
