A jilted bride turns her honeymoon trip into a steamy fling with no expectations—until she finds herself expecting—in this sexy romance novel.

When her fiancé suddenly breaks off their engagement, Isabel Hunt is left with a non-refundable honeymoon on her hands. Rather than let it go to waste, she boldly asks drop-dead gorgeous wedding photographer Rafe St. Vincet to join her on the trip.

One look at Rafe, and Isabel knows the arrogant ladies’ man will be the perfect no-strings rebound. But there’s more to Rafe than what pleasingly meets the eye. And their scorching hot honeymoon is about to take an unexpected turn . . . when it suddenly seems that Isabel has gotten pregnant.

Okay, I liked this story a lot. It was funny and had realistic personalities for the characters. I have read nothing but dominate heroes for the last few weeks and this one was so different. He was not a rake but since she thought he was, he decided to go with it so he could do whatever sexually he wanted and have an excuse for it. He decided he loved her first and he is the one to mess with the condoms so that she gets pregnant. I thought that was funny since most guys run away from that and he wanted to be with her so bad that he actively sought to impregnate her. She wanted to have a baby and was going to get inseminated after their affair had ended so it was not really manipulation on the hero's part. It was just fun and sweet. I just wish that she would have stopped fighting the attraction sooner. She did not want to fall for the type of guy he SEEMED like but he was not like previous men she knew and it blurred her vision towards him for too long. It is worth the read and I like that the hero was more human instead of playboy like and closed off emotionally.

4.0 out of 5 stars fun romance
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2011
The Secret Love-Child is the 61st romance novel by Miranda Lee, and the second of the Secret Passions series. When Luke Freeman broke his engagement with Isabel Hunt to marry Celia, she was devastated. Not because she was so in love with Luke: she'd given up on love after falling more than once for the wrong type of man; but Isabel liked and respected Luke, and she felt he would make a good husband and father. When it came to her bought-and-paid-for honeymoon on Dream Island, she immediately thought of Rafe Saint Vincent, the stand-in and now cancelled wedding photographer: there had been instant attraction when they met, even if he was also the wrong type of man. Rafe couldn't say no to the offer of a holiday with sexy Isabel. But when the condom failed, he was stunned to find that he hoped Isabel would be pregnant with his baby. Now he only had to convince her to marry him. Another excellent romance from Miranda Lee with an original plot and some great characters.

This is the most unusual book. The characters are unorthodox. I liked the fact that he was not featured as the arrogant billionaire. Of course I don't like a hand to mouth hero, he did have money, but he was so real and current. I especially loved his wicked sense of humour, and his sensitivity. Yet so masculine. She was also cool. That stunt he pulled with the condoms was weird though.

5.0 out of 5 stars The book is not PC but I liked it anyway
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2015
The book is not PC but I liked it anyway. In romance land, I love it when a hero gives 100 percent in order to have the heroine be with him, because he feels that he must have her, that his life would be empty without her. Here the hero does a 360 about love and marriage after meeting the heroine. In order to anchor her to him, he intentionally gets her pregnant without her knowledge. Both the hero and the heroine were likable as well as faithful to each other. I was glad that I read this book.

Rafe agrees to fill in for a friend taking Isabel's wedding photos and at their first meeting he is in lust. Isabel is too, but she's a cool blonde and has a poker face.

When her fiancee breaks up with her when he discovers he's in love with someone else, Isabel's dreams of a husband and children seem over. She's 30 and has been in love with several men who are not the marrying kind; that's why she had agreed to marry a nice man that she respected but did not love. Isabel's fiancee generously allows her to keep the ring, gives her a house and stock portfolio in addition to the honeymoon trip (wow, where can I, too, find such a generous man and NOT marry him? :) Since she has the trip and has the hots for our guy Rafe, she invites him along. He takes her up on it and takes her every which way he can in this two-week romantic getaway.

At one point, the condom breaks and Isabel does not realize it. Rafe does, but decides not to tell her, worrying her needlessly. Little does he realize she'd LOVE it if she wound up expecting his baby. There are some sizzling love scenes in this book and Miranda Lee fans should adore it.

I realized as I read this book that Isabel's friend Rachel, who's taken time off from her job to nurse her step-mother or godmother or someone like that, is featured in another book.I wonder if Isabel's fiancee and his lady love got a book too?

Luke really does come off nicely considering he dumps the heroine, so I'd be eager to read his story. Rafe thinks he's not the marrying kind because a young model tore his heart out when she used him and left him for a richer, more connected photographer. He soon realizes he has it bad for Isabel, who is described as a blonde type like those Alfred Hitchcock featured in so many of his films. That's a good, interesting description and Isabel's naughty fantasies when she first meets Rafe are hilarious. Her open approach to love making is a breath of fresh air and quite a surprise for good old Rafe.
