AidenIf you asked me last month if I had a fulfilling life being single, I would have said yes. But all of that changed when I met Stella. After a drink in my restaurant bar, we shared an incredible night together. The only problem was, she was gone when I woke up the next morning. No note, no phone number, nothing. Over a month later, I still can’t get her out of my mind. Somehow, she did a … can’t get her out of my mind. Somehow, she did a number on me, turning me into such a ball of self-pity, I can’t even work up the desire to move on. With no way of contacting her, I’m more than a little shocked to find her waiting in front of my door one evening.
Despite my wildest hopes, she isn’t here for a repeat of our passionate night. The nature of her visit is completely unexpected, ending with a surprise that’s about to turn both of our lives upside down.
One I’m not sure I’m ready for.

I give this book 4,5 stars.
“The best kind of surprise” is the second novella in the series “Best kind” by Jasmin Miller and as usual I loved it. Jasmin Miller has definitely become one of my favorite romcom authors and her books always put a smile on my face.
This book is about Logan’s twin brother Aiden who is a chef and owns his own restaurant. He is a known playboy but after an evening and night with Stella everything changes.
He can’t stop thinking about her and she just disappeared after that night and he can’t get in touch with her. But suddenly she turns up again and he will do anything to get her to stay.
The story is so sweet and funny and you can’t help but fall in love with Aiden and Stella and their lovestory. They are just so perfect for each other.
My only problem with it is that the trope is one I really don’t like but Jasmin Miller actually almost gets away with it but not totally;)!
I can definitely recommend this book and “The best kind of mistake” the first novella in the series about Logan and Ember (a workplace romance) if you like short, sweet and funny novellas.
I got this book from Jasmin Miller in exchange for an honest review.
This book by Jasmin Miller was super sweet. Jasmin always delivers such beautiful quick reads. I always look forward to her books as they never fail to put a smile on my face.
Aiden and Stella were amazing. They mesh so well together. I enjoyed their journey from a one night stand to their hea.
I recommend this book to people who love quick and easy reads. You will get your fix of a happy, fun and steamy romance with The Best Kind Of Surprise!
Sweet with a touch of steam, this short novella packs a punch. I’m not sure how Jasmin Miller manages to create such great stories in the quick novellas in this series, but they’ve both been fantastic. There is plenty of romance and character-building all packed into stories that take an hour or two to read. The Best Kind of Surprise was so fun to read, with some humor, plenty of lightness and a couple you want to root for from the very beginning.
We met Aiden in the first book in the series, but this can easily be read as a standalone. He’s a chef who has no desire to settle down, instead being a bit of a playboy who doesn’t think about the future. That all changes when he meets Stella, a woman who strikes him as different from the very beginning. The only problem? She thought he only wanted one night, so she snuck out without leaving her number. Now a month has passed and he can’t stop thinking about her, so it feels like fate when she shows up at his door…. along with the confession that she has a life-changing surprise for them both.
After meeting Aiden in the first book, I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about his story, but there was no need to worry. He is so adorable and easy to love from the start that I wanted to see him find love. Stella is a great match to Aiden, and though the story stays pretty light (being so short), I really liked the two of them together. There’s definitely chemistry and a light, sweet feel to the whole book that makes the pages go by quickly. I’m not sure what’s next from this series, but it’s been a joy to read so far. I was lucky enough to receive an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving a review of this great novella.
This was such a sweet and still a steamy read. Stella and Aidens characters are well developed and engaging with their chemistry being off the charts. The storyline kept interested till the end.
4 STARS
I really enjoyed the second novella in the Best Kind Series by Jasmin Miller. I loved how you see a softer and romantic side to Aiden considering we see the more of the playboy side to him in The Best Kind of Mistake. I found that Stella was the perfect match to Aiden. This was short and sweet, and can be read as a standalone.
I always enjoy a good surprise pregnancy story and I highly recommend this book. The Best Kind of Surprise is a MUST read and will join the ranks of the BIBLIO-ELITE!!!
A delightful, quick and sweet romance novella. Characters were the kind of people I like to enjoy in a story. There was just enough steam to heat things up without going overboard and the plot was real l believable and flowed well. Ms. Miller, once again, does not disappoint. My only complaint? I wish there was more to this story.
Jasmin Miller Stella and Aiden met at his restaurant and had one night of passion. The next morning Stella is gone. A month goes by before she shows up at Aiden’s door with some surprising news. This book was sweet as much as it was steamy. I loved Aiden and his softer romantic side while he pursues Stella with dates, walks on the beach, etc. He is still definitely an Alpha, especially in the bedroom! I loved Stella’s toughness and independence. She is no wilting flower. Will these two find their way back to each other?
Grab The Best Kind Of Surprise and find out! You will not be disappointed.
I requested this book via Booksprout in return for an honest review.
I received an ARC of this book and voluntarily give my review. This story grabbed my attention from the first chapter. Aiden is a long time “hook up” guy, who is hung up on a girl that got away, Stella. When she surprises him by coming back into his life and throwing him a curveball. Aiden starts trying to win back Stella through the sweetest actions and its just beautiful watching their relationship develop and grow. I highly recommend this novella it’s heartwarming, sweet and sexy.
The Best Kind of Surprise is the second book in this novella series, and I would suggest that you stop reading this review if you haven’t read the first book The Best Kind of Mistake. It will give you spoilers.
This one is about Logan’s brother Aiden, who we met in the first book. What we already know about him is that he is the wild brother and a well known playboy. A chance meeting happens between him and our heroine, Stella, at his restaurant. After a night together, she sneaks away, something he is NOT used to.
She plagues his mind everyday, until she shows up on his door step. But she’s not there to rekindle their night together. It is something so much more series than either of them could anticipate. Their journey is far from over, can they make it work?
I can’t say that I felt bad for Aiden, I mean what did he expect? Typical male behavior! But I still enjoyed the book and these two together were great despite their reason behind being together.
Also recommend this one! It’s a sweet and lighthearted book with very real world issues!
This was a awesome read by Jasmin Miller. This was a well written fast paced book with great plot, and character building. It’s romantic, sexy, sweet and funny and I loved Aiden and Stella’s story. They meet, have a amazing memorable night she disappears, he can’t get her out of his head, than shows up to give him a surprise. It is such a fun cute and sweet story by an amazing author that it is a definite must read!!! I can’t wait to read more!

I loved Aiden and Stella’s story. I loved that this novella felt like a complete journey through their lives and not a wham bam thank you ma’am story. It was so sweet watching their relationship grow and seeing how nervous Aiden was becoming a dad and not screwing it up. There were so many tender moments and then lol moments. I definitely recommend this book.
Jasmin Miller is a brand new author for me. I discovered while reading it that The Best Kind Of Surprise is actually book 2 in the series. Let me tell you that I will definitely be going back and reading book 1!!
Now for the book itself. It had me sucked in from the very first page and straight through to the end! It’s a short little read that delivers everything that you could possibly ask for. Instalove, strong independent heroine, an alpha hero that is mostly not an alphahole, no ow/om drama and a Happily Ever After that includes babies!!

I had a hard time staying interested in this book.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC from Booksprout.
After reading The Best Kind of Mistake earlier this year, I was so excited there would be a story for Aidan. And I am all sorts of happy that this novella was just as fun, sexy, and sweet as the first!
I enjoyed this story so much. It was light, sweet and full of all the feel good emotions I love in my stories . Aiden and Stella had an amazing chemistry and I adored their interactions. They were so perfect together and I just loved their journey to their HEA.
The Best Kind Of Surprise was full of humor, care, passion and love. In certain parts some actions so heartwarming and some are laugh out loud funny. This novella was really lovely, funny and a short read, but for me it had all romantic elements a novella should have. Brilliant stuff!
I was so excited that we got Logan’s twin brother Aiden’s story. Aiden is a sweet, hard working, loving, loyal man and one night with Stella had him realizing that she was it for him but he doesn’t expect her to show up on his doorstep with some news. Stella is a sweet woman that had one night of fun with Aiden never expecting anything to come of it but she gets a surprise and has to tell Aiden. These two had amazing chemistry and worked so well together. This was another quick read but that doesn’t take away from the story and romance because I thoroughly enjoyed it.
A surprise baby brings together 2 strangers in The Best Kind of Surprise.
Aiden was already tracking down the woman from his one night stand a month before when she shows up at his door with news that she’s pregnant and it’s his. Stella is skittish, though, and not entirely sure of the longevity their relationship, so she tries to keep Aiden at arm’s length until he proves himself.
This novella is a quick, entertaining read. 4 star. I wanted just a bit more exploration of Stella’s feelings about pregnancy and forging a relationship with a virtual stranger.
Thanks Booksprout for the opportunity to read this story.
Rate: 3.5/ 5 stars
We finally got Aiden’s story! I was super curious about how his story was going to play out and it was nothing like I had expected… it was way better. He totally surprised me, I hadn’t expected him to be so sweet.
His and Stella’s story was a bit too much of insta love for me but that didn’t stop me from enjoying their crazy journey. Aiden was completely smitten with Stella the night they hooked up and when she left him in the dust the next morning, his life suddenly stopped making as much sense as before. When Stella shows up on his doorstep a couple months later, he is super happy to see her but what she came to tell him completely changes his life again.
I really enjoyed watching these two getting ready to be parents together and getting to know each other and fall in love. There were some freak-outs and doubts that gave that little taste of drama and angst but overall this book was just a sweet story about two people falling in love with each other and their future kid. It had some funny moments, specially when Logan and Ember were involved and the heat between Aiden and Stella was scorching.
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys surprise pregnancies and cute fast reads.
A non spoiler review……
I found this book to be really cute and entertaining. Is it unrealistic to find love fast? Sometimes, but its a cute story with lovable characters and some laugh out loud moments. It’s a quick read. But definitely worth the read. I don’t normally read instalove but I’ve read this authors other books and I LOVE THEM ALL. I really enjoyed this one as well. It’s sweet and romantic. It’s a light fun read that you can enjoy with a smile on your face.
The Best Kind Of Surprise is a sweet and beautiful story, Let’s start with the cover. I loved it!
I’ve been waiting for Aiden’s story, Logan’s brother, since book one, The best kind of mistake. These brothers are the book boyfriends we all fall in love with!!!!
Aiden and Stella had an amazing chemistry going on with every scene we read!
Let me tell you, this couple is absolutely perfect! I like their interaction and sweetness. The plot is well written, I just couldn’t put it down!
Cant wait to read more about this couple in the future.
Can’t recommend it enough!! Go grab your copy
