Child of Mine: a nostalgic romantic comedy

"A romcom set in BOSTON in the 80s?? Yes please!" NYT bestselling author Erin Nicholas


The bigger the secret, the harder it is to hide.


Single mom Isabella York was a celebrity before she had her first kiss, her first date, or her first sip of alcohol. Playing the bad girl—both on and off the set—allowed her to make up for lost time. Back home in Boston, with her "checkered past" behind her, all she wants is to raise her little girl far away from the spotlight, because revealing her secrets could mean losing everything, or gaining more than she ever hoped.


For her, and her daughter.


It's not that Henry Smith hates kids—they don't like him. Meanwhile, he's stuck producing children's TV, so he'll try to tone down the grumpiness that's dogged him since his life imploded seven years ago. After all, not everyone gets a second chance to chase his dream. If he plays his cards right at this new gig, he can move on to making television that will change the world, not just entertain a bunch of brats.


Maybe he can charm the woman he never thought he'd see again into a do-over while he's at it.


In this sexy, heartwarming, not-quite-historical romance—the latest Boston Classics standalone romcom—a sunshine/grumpy pair has to face the past to before they can find a future... together.


★★★★★ "5 '80s loving' stars for this fourth installment of Karen's Boston Classics!!"

★★★★★ "The perfect continuation of a series I hope lasts forever... serious, sweet, saucy, and sexy, sexy, sexy all rolled into one."

★★★★★ "If you are a fan of a nostalgic 80s romance with a hot grumpy yet caring man, a determined strong single mama, a sweet and smart little girl (secret baby!), the perfect touch of steam, forced proximity, a little bit forbidden workplace romance, catching up with some favorite past characters, some dark issues, and a swoon-worthy heartfelt HEA, then you will absolutely adore this book."

★★★★★ "Delivers every single one of her characters with so much care and love and you can feel that as you turn the pages."

★★★★★ "The emotions--the feelings her characters are going through--rock your world."

★★★★★ "Grey has a way with words that instantly sucks you in and keeps you eagerly turning the pages till the very last word."

★★★★★ "Second chances, undeniable attraction, well-written characters, the ugly and unforgiving side of fame and success, and love that spans time and space."
