"Hilarious! Will definitely leave you smiling!"

Jacqueline Diamond's EXCUSE ME? WHOSE BABY? finds millionaire Jim Bonderoff and graduate student Alexandra 'Dex' Fenton receiving the shocking news that they are the birth parents of a baby girl named Ayoka, a test tube baby. Jim wants to raise Ayoka himself and be a father but Dex, coming from a family where emotions were kept in check, feels Ayoka would be better off with an adoptive family. Thrown into forced contact until the future of the baby is settled, the unlikely pair create some sparks and steam that leads to an undeniable attraction!

EXCUSE ME? WHOSE BABY? is a hilarious and yet tender tale of love between two wonderful characters. Dex and Jim are memorable in their own way and certainly know how to steam up a room! The secondary characters were outstanding and added a lot of humor to the story. Jacqueline Diamond writes marvelous romantic comedy and I'm looking forward to reading more of her work in the future.

In FOLLOW THAT BABY! we meet schoolteacher Melanie Brooks and Joe Jantzen, a private detective. Melanie's friend Paige convinces her to look after Paige's toddler, Duncan. Paige is convinced her husband, Lou is having another so- called affair and presumably upset by this. She's also convinced that someone is hurting Duncan since he seems to have some unexplained bruises. Melanie feels Lou's 'affair' is just another groundless flirtation but the bruises are another matter. Giving in, she agrees to look after Duncan. Enter Joe Jantzen, hired by a frantic Lou to find his missing wife and child. What follows is a late full of laughs as Melanie tries to mislead Joe into believing Duncan is really a 'Barbara'!

Lovable characters, hilarious scenes and an adorable baby combine to make FOLLOW THAT BABY! a wonderful romance to curl up with. Ms. Sharpe has penned a story full of unforgettable moments and a plot that simply delights.

Both tales in this Duet, EXCUSE ME? WHOSE BABY? and FOLLOW THAT BABY! are superb and make for entertaining reading. Light and humorous, Duet #44 will leave you with a glow in your heart and definitely smiling!
