Baby Bump by Sofia T. Summers

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

It’s one thing to wake up in a hospital with zero memories.
It’s another to have your hot doctor tell you he’s the father of your child.

Ethan Lewis is every woman’s dream.
So, I took about a second to believe every word he told me.

Strong, handsome, and wealthy.

He’s basically all the things that my ex is not.
The ex that is sure to stir up trouble in my no memory La-La land.

Ethan doesn’t care that we violated the rules when his fingers trailed down my jawline.

The moment he held me is the only memory I really care about.

But it’s only a matter of time until I remember all the forgotten moments.

And that would be the moment of truth.

Ethan’s secret would spill out this Thanksgiving… along with the legitimacy of the story my ex tells me.

But I’m not the only one discovering a secret this holiday season.

Christmas will bring a sweet little gift for Ethan, one that I thought I could hide from him forever.

The heroine: Lily – she wakes up after being in a car accident, and the only thing she is worried about is the baby she is carrying, she is in and out of consciousness in the ambulance and when she arrives at the hospital. She finds out that her baby is fine, but when her fiancé Mark arrives, she doesn’t remember him. Her parents arrive and though she knows them, they believe her arrogant and grumpy fiancé when he tells them that the baby isn’t his though he is still planning to marry her and raise the baby as his own. She can’t defend herself because she doesn’t remember. Her parents are religious and strict, so they think Mark is great for being willing to overlook her cheating.

The Hero: Ethan – He is a neurosurgeon at the hospital where Lily is taken after her accident, and he immediately feels something for her. Though he can’t believe that she would be engaged to the awful man that is hanging around, who obviously didn’t care if she lost her baby or not. Ethan overhears the heated discussion between Lily, her parents, and Mark and is not happy that they seem to be ganging up on Lily, so he finds himself walking in and introducing himself as both Lily’s neurologist and the father of her baby.

The Story: For Ethan, it was love at first sight when he saw Lily and he just wanted to protect her against her angry and aggressive fiancé who didn’t seem to care about her at all, not to mention the judgement of her parents. He also needed to keep her heart rate from jumping through the roof which is what seemed to happen when she was in the room with Mark. Though his lie ended up being compounded when instead of revealing the truth to Lily, he agreed to bring her to his home when she is discharged from the hospital.

I didn’t know how to feel about this book, from the start. It was not quite the story I thought I was getting from the blurb. I had hoped that Ethan really was the baby’s father, and that Lily just didn’t remember him. I didn’t expect this was all a big lie made up by a man who took one look at an accident victim and fell head over heels. It also turned me off quite a bit when Ethan got all worked up and started mourning the loss of his “relationship” with Lily before it ever began because he knew she should never forgive him for lying to him. This was like 2-3 days after meeting her, so him getting all teary-eyed wasn’t the kind of thing I like to see in a Hero.
