Hudson
I didn’t plan on kissing my best friend’s twin sister… or falling for her. But it happened all the same. It’s always been Riley, but after I finally get the chance to taste her lips, she ghosts me.
Not exactly the response I was hoping for. Getting out of town for a while, and giving her space, seemed like the best thing for us both. Until the night before my year overseas, and she ended up in my bed.
I thought leaving her was the hardest thing I’ve ever experienced, but returning home to find her with a newborn and knowing she’s moved on is a sucker punch to the gut. She can push me away all she wants, but the sexy single mom better get used to me being around, because I’m home to stay.
Riley
I’ve had a thing for Hudson Fleming for as long as I can remember. But I couldn’t get past his friendship with my sister. When I hear that he’s planning on leaving town, I know it’s now or never. Spending the night with him changes my lifein more ways than one.
Now he’s halfway around the world, and I’m pregnant. Having this baby alone doesn’t scare me half as much as my feelings for Hudson.
When he returns to town, I’m torn between loving and hating him. How can I not since he gave me the greatest gift, then walked away from us both? And now he wants to be a family… like he didn’t break my heart into a million pieces.

I'm a fan of secret baby romances, so it was a no brainer that after reading the blurb of Misconception I was giddy to start this book. Kaylee Ryan once again created a swoony read with a lovely couple!
Riley and Hudson have known each other all their lives, and for years they both have been hiding their romantic feelings for each other. They were afraid to break the friendship existing between Hudson and Riley's twin sister, Raven. On a night celebrating Hudson's departure for a one year humanitarian mission, they finally let go of their fear and let their hearts and bodies speak.
I enjoyed reading about their doubts and their undeniable love. Each time they were in the same spaces, it was so clear this pair was made for each other. I liked how Hudson fought for the woman he loves. He was determined to show her that she was the only one and his forever. I guess that the distance made him realized what he was losing by keeping his feelings to himself.
I'll admit there was futile drama due to miscommunication and simply bad timing, but I still enjoyed this novel a lot. It provided all the sweet and sexy moments I wanted.
