Everyone has a best friend. Mine just happens to be Dr. Christian Gallagher— the gorgeous, green-eyed heart surgeon who wants to have a baby with me.Yes, you read that correctly.
When my mother approached me on my thirty-third birthday with a brochure for egg freezing, it was a glaring reminder that my biological clock is ticking toward its expiration date. I’ve always dreamed of being a mom and had a plan — one that was destroyed when I caught my professional hockey player husband in bed with another woman.
Despite my broken heart I still believe in love. I want the happily ever after, but I also want a child desperately and won’t settle in order to make it happen.
That’s why when I decided to take my mother’s advice, Christian came up with his own plan: Let’s have a baby together.
It’s a bad idea. A really, really bad idea. And yet…I can’t stop thinking about how great it could be.
There’s just one condition. Before we have sex (oh, yes, we’re doing this the old fashioned way!) Christian is adamant we go on three dates.
Sounds easy, but it’s not.I thought sex would be the hard part, but the dates are only making me fall for the man I’ve known almost my entire life.
Whoever said sex doesn’t change things never went to bed with their best friend.
Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
A Really Bad Idea is a really perfect best friends romance! I loved everything about Meadow and Christian as they move from best friends to more.
I often find it tricky to enjoy a best friends/relationship pact trope without it feeling forced. But the deal these two make to have a baby together, and how their friendship progresses to a full-blown romance after that, felt natural. Maybe it’s because the characters are so genuinely likable and relatable, which is a testament to Jeannine Colette’s writing style.
Christian’s a doctor, Meadow is a nurse. But before they have this baby (the old fashioned way!), he insists on taking her out on three dates. What a gentleman! It’s not long before they both realize that they’ve caught some serious feelings for the other.
This was just a perfect romcom, from start to finish! I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review
