Publisher's Summary

He’s the one she’s never forgotten.

She’s the one he regrets letting go.

Now they have a second chance to get it right.

When Skye Tremont runs into her sexy former flame, Tripp Daniels, she’s reminded of the baby pact they’d made years ago … If she was single and childless by the age of thirty, he’d step in and be her baby daddy and fulfill her dream of having a child.

Now, after a bitter divorce that has left her guarding her heart, and wanting only one thing, Skye is ready to take Tripp up on his promise. When he’s one of the bachelors up for bid at a charity auction, it’s the perfect opportunity to have him all to herself for a weekend of baby making fun, as long as he agrees to her terms.

Tripp is on board to fulfill the promise he made to Skye. If he’s going to have a baby with anyone, it’s going to be the one woman he’d foolishly let slip through his fingers. But not this time because he’s all in. Skye is even more beautiful than he remembers, and the chemistry between them is hotter than ever, but while she gives him free rein with her body, she’s made it clear her heart is off limits.

Now, with a second chance within his grasp, Tripp is prepared to do whatever it takes to win the woman he loves and give them both the family they’ve always craved.

Missing trigger warning. Mixed feelings about the rest. Narration good.

Firstly, I usually really like Carly's books. I own quite a few and am on her email list. However I have had issues with the ones she cowrites with Erica, like this one.
I found this book a real mix. The main two characters have a strong connection and the guy is portrayed as a really nice guy.
However he also emphasises his ownership of her. Which seems to be accepted as romantic when it would have been really triggering for her. She has been in a majorly abusive relationship where her former husband had been all about owning and directing her. She is said to be fearful and easily triggered. Yet she seems to accept the hero's ownership, and his getting her to plea for him to stop various sexual activity.
I recall one of the big issues I had with the previous book/ collaboration in the series also seemed Ok with excessive control too.
This current book had a scene of kidnapping which other authors tend to warn about in a books description as a trigger warning. That, and the extensive descriptions of gaslighting and emotional abuse should have been prewarned. I do understand some women experiencing emotional abuse may benefit from having such a pattern laid out for them. However general readers looking for romance and deeper connection, or those who have suffered trauma from such relationships, need to know to avoid such a book.
I avoid books with kink (as a former relationship counsellor) and at least Carly in an earlier book gave a pre warning of such content. I didn't buy that title. I hope she thinks about similar trigger warnings in future.
I see another reviewer was angry that there was a message in this book that a single mother needed a male partner to raise a child or the child would suffer. I assume the same would apply to single fathers. There is enough evidence that this isn't true- and that a child with both parents is no guarantee in producing what child needs.
NARRATION: both narrators did good job. So that slightly raised my overall rating.
