I felt this book was just dumb. Hallmark Channel romance. I guess this is why I I generally don't read Harlequin romances.

A delightful read! Falling for the Pregnant Heiress is Book 3 in Susan Meier's Manhattan Babies series and is a brother's best friend with a twist of a surprise baby story. I was quickly enthralled with the characters and along for the ride towards their happily ever after.
Trent Sigmund was quick to grab my heart. He was the first to notice when she was out of sorts and stepped up to help her in honor of his best friend. As his character developed he only endeared himself further with a sad back story. Really enjoyed him!
Sabrina McCallan is attractive because she steps up and honors the things she feels like she needs to accomplish and doesn't let a knock here and there get her down.
Really enjoyed Trent and Sabrina's story!

Sweet story. It opens at the wedding of Sabrina's brother, Seth. Sabrina is a bridesmaid and Seth's best friend, Trent, is the groomsman who is partnered with her. Trent has known Sabrina for years and is accustomed to seeing her as a cool, well-put-together woman. This day, Trent sees a different side of her. She looks fine on the surface, but Trent notices a somewhat frazzled air about her.
I really liked Trent's keen observational skills. Although he swears that he is not attracted to her, that she isn't his type, he can't deny his need to take care of her. He claims it is because she is his best friend's little sister. When he discovers what the issue is, he offers to help her track down her ex so she can tell him about the baby. Rather than merely giving her use of his jet, Trent decides to accompany her. I loved watching Trent do his best to take care of her as well as try to pry her out of her ice maiden exterior and learn to have fun. I especially enjoyed the scene in Spain with the personal shopper. Trent never expected to develop feelings for her.
Sabrina is the youngest and only girl in her family. Because she was a girl, she avoided the bullying and abuse that her brothers suffered at the hands of their father. However, she did bury her own inclinations under the prim and proper façade that was expected of her. Getting pregnant was not in her plans, but she embraced the prospect with determination and happiness. She is confident the father won't want to be involved, which is fine with her, but she does feel compelled to inform him. Discovering the pregnancy the morning of her brother's wedding complicated matters, as she doesn't want to tell her family until she tells Pierre. She is surprised when Trent figures out her secret, and more so when he offers to help.
I enjoyed the development of their relationship. Sabrina and Trent are so different from each other that neither expected the attraction that flared between them. Sabrina is determined to raise the baby on her own, though it didn't take long for her to realize that she could see Trent playing the part of father. Trent tries to deny his feelings for Sabrina, afraid that he isn't capable of loving another man's child. I ached for him because those feelings were caused by the way he was treated by his stepfather. His fears cause him to push Sabrina away when all he really wants is to pull her closer. I liked seeing him finally face his feelings and confront his past, determined to be the kind of man Sabrina needs. I loved his big moment at the end. It was sweet and romantic and perfect for them.

If you are looking for a clean, feel good romance, this is the ONE! Trent and Sabrina are the cutest couple that don't think they should be a couple. Trent is her brother's friend. Sabrina is the little sister. Things couldn't get more difficult, but they do. Sabrina is pregnant by a painter from overseas that does not want children. On their quest to let the father know, Trent and Sabrina find that love can be hidden in plain sight, no matter what their childhood put them through.
