Make Me Yours is book the in the Make Me sees by Katee Robert.
We first met Aaron Livingston in Make Me Want as a potential suitor for Lucy. Who would've thought he'd end up with a one night stand with her sister Becka. But sparks fly and in the end there are consequences.
Becka is freaked when she realizes she's pregnant. Determined to see this through she comes clean with Aaron only to have him steamroll get into make huge changes in her life. Yet they still can't resist this magnetic pull for each other. Now they have to deal with the chemistry and move onto parenthood.

Steamy romance that brings the reader in and engages with both plot and characters. This will heat up beaches all summer.

An enjoyable read. I got sucked into this story straight away and really enjoyed it throughout. I'll definitely be following this author and checking out her other books.

Make Me Yours is a quick read delving into the idea that fate provides even if you don’t realize it is exactly what you need.

Sparks fly between Becka and Aaron from the start; neither looking for a relationship or so they have convinced themselves. But when fate intervenes to reunite the pair with an additional surprise package, Aaron is determined to make the most of the opportunity he has been given.

Becka is fiercely independent and quite negative in her attitude; while some parts are understandable she can be her own worst enemy. Aaron certainly has a battle on his hands as he attempts to convince Becka to give him and them a chance. A campaign Aaron undertakes with charm, consideration, and patience all with a little bit of alpha thrown into the mix.

Watching Becka’s barriers lower as she confronts her demons and moves onto a brighter future added to the idyllic nature of the narrative 💕

Make Me Yours
Katee Robert
Becka Baudin is attending her sister’s wedding. While she is happy for her, she still feels a little resentment, she feels like she is being left behind by her sister Lucy and best friend Allie. She figures a little one night stand will make her feel better. Quick, no commitments. She spies a handsome man across the room, who is also checking her out. Their chemistry is hot. Aaron Livingston is a business associate also attending the wedding. He is drawn to Becka too. They have a night of wild sex and separate. Aaron wanted more than one night, but Becka didn’t. Time goes on and Aaron still thinks about Becka, he finally gets a call three months later. It seems Becka is pregnant. Aaron plans on being involved in the baby’s life much to Becka’s annoyance. She doesn’t want to be managed. He moves her into his penthouse and tries to take care of her. Throughout, they butt heads. Aaron tries to figure out a way to melt Becka’s heart and make her realize that he wants her as well as the baby. Becka soon realizes that he will allow her to be herself and not everyone will be like her parents.
I liked this story even though at times I wanted to shake Becka and tell her to give Aaron a chance. Their relationship at times was explosive. Eventually Aaron was able to break down her walls and she realized that not every relationship was like her parents. They did end up with their HEA. I am going to read the two stories before this in which Allie and Lucy find their loves.

Accidental pregnancies are my catnip. I love them so much. I read this romance in one sitting. I enjoyed the chemistry and the pace.

She wants nothing from him, just telling because it is the right thing to do...Except He Wants More. He promises to be there for her and with the chemistry they have. more for them is just around the corner.

I received an ARC of this book and voluntarily give my review.

This book is the 3rd in a series, but can be read as a standalone (which is what I did). I don't feel that I was missing any information, but i do want to go back and read books 1 and 2. This book has one of the tropes I love love love, Secret Baby... well not so secret, because much to my enjoyment Becka comes out and tells Aaron at the beginning of the book. One of my biggest pet peeves is when characters make dumb decisions and don't act like adults. I love that Becka told Aaron at the start of the book and the reader gets to watch their banter unfold. I really enjoyed these characters and their story, but there were a couple of things that gave me pause and seemed a little unbelievable when I was reading (probably just because i can't relate)
1) Becka is a spin instructor and personal trainer, and Aaron was very protective of her, but never once said anything about being concerned about her level of activity- which I feel an overprotective guy might do
2) I have been pregnant, and I can not imagine doing 1 spin class let alone multiple classes per day- if you can do that I am amazed. When i was pregnant I was so exhausted I would need a nap after going to get a glass of water.

Overall I definitely recommend this book, I look forward to going back and reading the other stories in this series.

Aaron (friend to heros in books one and two) and Becka (sister to book 1 heroine and bff to book 2 heroine) hook up one time at her sister's wedding with a broke condom. Lots of angst and drama ensue, but in the end all well. This one has something the previous two didn't...an epilogue.

All the heart and heat I’ve come to expect from a Katee Robert book – made even more delicious by all the tension created by the heroine’s refusal to give in to her feelings and the hero’s relentless pursuit of what he knows is a true happy ever after for them both.

I’m normally not a fan of the accidental baby trope but I love Katee Robert and just loved how this book was so much more than just that trope. The push and pull that goes on between Becka and Aaron added such a great tension to the story that went far past their physical desire. Although the pregnancy forced these two together, right from the start the emotions went far deeper than just responsibility and obligation. Becka wasn’t my favorite heroine and even knowing her backstory and what her issues were I found myself getting frustrated time and again. Aaron was awesome. He was a bit over the top at times with a bit too much of his alpha coming out, but I loved how he tried to rein himself in once he realized that Becka needed to feel as much in control as he did.

Another fun and sexy read from Katee Robert!

I really enjoyed reading Make Me Yours by Katee Robert, it was one of those books you didn't want to put down.

The writing is well done, the characters Becka and Aaron were likable, entertaining and the chemistry between was smoking!

Overall, Make Me Yours is a quick and steamy read and I highly recommend it.

Make Me Yours by Katee Robert is the third book in her Make Me series, but the first I read, and I never felt as if I was missing anything. In this book, we meet Aaron and Becka and have a surprise baby story with all the feels. Aaron is a man with strong determination. He worked hard to be where he is today, CEO of a top tech company. He is not the kind of man that goes chasing things, but when he meets Becka at a wedding and they share one fabulous night together, he can’t get her out of his mind.

Becka only wanted one night of sexy fun. But when she finds out she is pregnant, there is nothing Aaron will do to make her his. Becka was resistant to anything permanent and struggled to let others in. She was a smart and independent woman, but the more time she spend with Aaron, she began to open herself more. Make Me Yours by Katee Robert was a quick read about learning to trust, give and take and letting others in. It was a bit angsty and a whole lot of sexy!

Katee is one of my favorite authors. There was a gap between my reading Make Me Yours and Make Me Crave. I wish I had re-read that because I had forgotten some character details. But still it’s the perfect surprise baby story. The character development was good and the story flowed well.

Aaron and Becka meet at her sister's wedding and end up having a one night stand with big consequences that pushes them into navigating their issues and differences to try to form a relationship. I liked the premise, and I mostly liked Aaron, but Becka drove me nuts with frustration. She couldn't get over herself for a second and she used the fact that she had mediocre parents (not the worst, but not great either) as an excuse to behave like a stubborn kid. And all this childish behavior under the guise of being a "strong," "independent" woman. I think that's what grated on my nerves the most: being strong is not the same as being hardheaded and being independent is not the same as pushing people away and then crying foul when they do indeed leave. So, Becka was a no for me, but the writing was good, the hero was likable and the story was well-paced.

Thanks to NetGalley for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I really need to go back and read the others in thi8s series. I really had a hard time with Becca, she is not very likable. Aaron was easier and he was a very alpha male. I do enjoy the banter and how they both are trying to make it work.

Katee Robert is a new author to me. Yes I have been branching out a lot more and I won't deny that its been fun. Make Me Yours by is a cute fun read, but it was a little too love at first for me. The writing itself was great and the flow of the story wasn't too bad.

You meet Becka and Aaron at a wedding and I'll say that the chemistry was very on point. And stayed that way throughout the book. Even with their attraction the two have their issues. Becka was a hard character to take in. She's very confrontati0nal. That can be good in the right setting, despite her reservations she couldn't deny her feelings for Aaron.

Aaron had that alpha mentality, although he is a planner and analytical thinker. He wanted Becka to give in far too much for her liking. This made the story so much fun. I love when couples are good together as much as I love when they clash.

I will give this novella 3.5 stars for it's flow and content.

Ok so this is where I started in this series...and I’ll be checking out the first two books soon. But in the meantime, Becka is one of the prickliest characters I’ve come across. Poor Aaron. He’s got his work cut out for him. I really liked Aaron. Becka, took me a while to warm up to her. Sometimes I’d just roll my eyes at her. And at the end, it should’ve been her who made the first step waay ahead of Aaron.

Anyway, she’s lucky to have him in my opinion. And because it took me a while to like her, this is a 3 star story.

Thank you NetGalley and publisher for a copy of this book.

usually accidental pregnancy stories don't work for me, but there was something about becka and aaron, maybe how hot the chemistry ran between them. maybe how the way they connect physically leads them to connect emotionally on so many levels is done in a way that feels organic and honest. it doesn't just happen in an instinctive way, but in an intellectual way that really works for me.

they have reservations about each other all over the place. but they also want each other so badly. make me yours works because that's all either of them really wants. to belong. to be claimed. to be wanted by the other person as badly as they want.

**make me yours will publish on may 1, 2019. i received an advance reader copy courtesy of netgalley/harlequin (dare) in exchange for my honest review.

I did not like Becka. I disliked her to be honest. She has mammy issues and never got over them, not even at the end of the book. I can't believe that Aaron was the one who thought that should be doing the grooving. Becka was acting selfishly during the whole book and I didn't feel like she allowed him some room in her life. He always had to push in order to take their relationship one step further from the "we just had a one night stand and now we share a baby" status. Her house had a cracked window and there was a leak on the wall and she thought that it was an ok play to raise a baby and had no plans to fix it. What kind of mommy issues are these? Aaron had to push hard to make her see some sense. I never believed that she changed her mind about her relationship with him, but the book had to end, so we got a rushed ending. I am disappointed by this book and I was expecting more from Katee Robert. Aaron saved the book from being a complete disaster in my eyes.
