Books like Making Babies by Wendy Warren


Elaine Lowry, a recently divorced woman, is determined to have a child of her own after losing her house and social standing to her ex‑husband, who is now having a baby with his new wife. When Elaine’s landlord takes over her apartment, she discovers it’s none other than Mitch Ryder, the attractive lawyer who represented the opposing side in her divorce. Feeling guilty for his role in her split, Mitch offers to be a candidate for fatherhood—on the condition that their relationship remain strictly business. Yet as they navigate this arrangement, Mitch’s protective instincts toward Elaine grow, and their inevitable physical and emotional intimacy challenges the terms of their agreement, blurring the line between business and pleasure.
