The Marine's baby, maybe: a second chance romance

The Marine’s Baby, Maybe by Rogenna Brewer is the first book in the Love in Uniform series. Caitlin Calhoun married Navy Lieutenant Luke Calhoun Jr in a whirlwind romance. Now she is a widow as her Navy SEAL husband was killed in action. As she moves from their base housing, she receives a letter from CryoBank. Her husband had donated sperm before his deployment. She hatches a plan to have his baby a piece of him she can hold on to. However, due to an unfortunate mix-up, the baby’s father is actually her late husband’s half brother. Master Sergeant “Lucky” Luke Calhoun Jr is a Marine sniper deployed overseas. Always unlucky in love, having a family was the last thing he expected to have. When he learns about Caitlin and his unborn baby, he can’t seem to turn his back on them. Unsure how to describe their new relationship, Cait and Lucky begin an unusual friendship but they never expected to fall in love. 

I always love stories that feature military personnel and their families. The Marine’s Baby, Maybe is a sweet second chance romance. A few reviewers complained that the story was outdated. Yes, the story takes place in 2008. Yikes, ancient history, right? And the characters mention screen names, yellow pages, and phone booths. However, it doesn’t take away from the enjoyment of the story. At its core, regardless of the time period, it is a second chance at love romance. Added to their drama, there is the wounded brother, the demanding mother-in-law and the jerk of a father-in-law. But through it all, they find a way to come together for this new baby. And in the process find a life and love they never thought they would ever have.  I thoroughly enjoyed The Marine’s Baby, Maybe. It was sweet, fun, and sexy. There were a few tears, a few heart tagging moments and even laughter. I highly recommend The Marine’s Baby, Maybe
