Pregnant by the Playboy (Fong Brothers, #1)

Then afterward...
Well, I have some ideas, though if she prefers to snuggle up against my side and sleep, that’s okay, too.
My father approaches the little room near the back of the house. He looks at the sleeping baby in the car seat and my sleeping wife draped all over me, and he smiles.
When he leaves, Marissa presses the side of her face against my nose.
“I love you,” I murmur, stroking her hair.
She replies with a snore, but that’s okay.
I know she loves me and trusts me, and we’re going to have a great life together. It won’t go exactly as we plan, but it’ll be with her, and that’s what matters.
Yes, I’m in love, and it’s the most wonderful thing in the world.

Thank you for reading Pregnant by the Playboy.
The Fong Brothers series is a spin-off of my Kwan Sisters series. Julian and Courtney’s story is the second book of that series, Mr. Hotshot CEO, and I’d always intended to write about Julian’s brothers. Cedric’s book will hopefully be out in the first half of 2021.
If you’d like to read more romantic comedies set in Toronto—with lots of food, of course!—check out my Baldwin Village series. The first novel, The Ultimate Pi Day Party, is about a woman who runs a pie shop.
To learn about my new releases, sign up for my newsletter. You will receive a free copy of the novella One Bed for Christmas, a standalone prequel to the Baldwin Village series.
