Summary: AWESOME Team
Review: I bought the book because I'm a big fan of Lori Soard but was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed Ms. Brian's wonderful stor "Womb for Rent." These two authors combine two stories that make for hours of delightful reading.

Bravo!

Summary: Make it a boy and I'll double the payment...
Review: Just appalling. Businessman with a heart of gold who supports homeless children wants a child of his own. So he advertises for a surrogate. Enter Tallulah Jayne Paxton aka Talli, who lives on his estate and works as the handler for his four dogs. Her application is a standout because she says she is "single, young, stable background, loves kids, in perfect health. No emotional ties at current time."
She puts on a fedora and grey hornrim glasses for the interview so he won't recognise her - and he doesn't! She beats out a 6'6" musclebound German who rides a bicycle, a bartender who tells the hero that she could be an oven for his bun and wants to open her own bar called The Slurp and Burp, and a model called Tiffany who is "a vegetarian..won't wear furs and didn't realise she would have to get pregnant...she thought she could wear a pillow under her clothes for nine months". And then our child-loving hero tells her that he'll pay fifty thousand dollars for a child - and that he'll double it if it's a boy! Ughhh!
Contrived and loophole-ridden, and the fact that Talli doesn't even query the double-your-money for a boy made it impossible to like either hero or heroine. The supporting cast is stereotyped and trite. The one-star rating is generous.
