My least favorite of this series. The title is a misspelling of the main characters name. As a Katy not a Katie that was like the mom (author) forgot how to spell her own kids name. Then nothing at the end makes sense. The men’s dad is dead so how is the Dr calling her daughter in law? Also why did the other couple take the baby instead of them raising it? Explanations are needed instead of rushing through the actual storyline.
Bonnie –
Ok The story was interesting. Short and sweet. Well, a couple characters had trouble being sweet. I do wish writers would do a wee but of research. A new born ‘s eyes do not focus or look with curiosity. There were some other descriptions of what that baby could do by the time it was a month old which were not accurate.
