Her Patriotic Prince
It was only supposed to be one night...
Laura Cunningham is gorgeous, witty and tough as nails...and still single in her late thirties. After dating every man in Manhattan, she's resigned herself to the fact that true love just might not exist for her. Certainly a bummer for the woman who observed her two best friends fall in love with sexy, strong men who are their soulmates.
Adam Gardner is a soldier who's been committed to the cause his entire life. Nearing forty, he realizes that once his next mission is complete, he wants to settle down and build a home and family.
Laura and Adam meet on a romantic summer evening, knowing their time is limited due to Adam's impending deployment. Taken by their instant chemistry, they commit to spending one passionate and intimate night together.
Years later, Adam returns to find Laura with a daughter who shares his sky-blue eyes. Determined to be a father to the little girl, and still enamored by the woman he could never forget, he strives to discern the best path forward.
Laura is shocked by the appearance of the man who stole her heart so many years ago...and who still possesses it. Can the star-crossed lovers build a life together or will secrets and fears keep them from achieving happiness?
Secret baby, only one night and insta-love trope lovers-this one's for you! Like all of Ayla's books, this is a sweet, steamy, fast-paced novella with a sexy hero and guaranteed HEA. The conclusion to the trilogy is here!

Ratings and reviews
Laura was at a wedding. So was Adam but at a different one. They were both outside getting some air and that's how they met. They could only spend one night together because he had to deploy that coming Monday. Four years later when he came back from deployment he found her. When he did he found out she was keeping a surprise from him. What do they do now? I love how Ayla added how much the others from the previous stores have grown and changed in this book. Laura's new nickname is cute. I'm glad she didn't do what she was contemplating. I am happy that he forgives her. I'm so glad they were both okay with the decision to stay close. The way they think about each other when they don't think the other is is adorable. They are so open with each other. He asked her a question that I was wishing he would. Adams brother may have good intentions but it's not right. Laura, Kayla and Joy are too much to handle. The love Laura and Adam have is beautiful. The only problem is that it's not long enough! I want so much more. What a great story. Wen Ross and Kai Kenncott have great voices. You need to listen to the audio.
