Unexpected Complication

Carey's broken up with her boyfriend, Jarrod, when she unexpectedly carrying his baby. Her best friend Devin, Jarrod's cousin, doesn't get along with Jarrod, and never felt his cousin was good enough for Carey. As a matter of fact, he's come to the conclusion the man he'd like to see Cary with is...himself. But is he man enough to take his cousin's baby and raise it as his own? Love is complicated enough, but Carey and Devin's relationship has to navigate more than its share of pitfalls. Can love win out? Knupp's first book is a wonderful story that left me anxious for her next release.

I'm not a big romance book reader, but I loved Unexpected Complication by Amy Knupp. Her great character development really made you want Devin and Carey to get together- very believable!

I am not normally a romance reader, but I have to say that I loved this book. I was very intrigued by the characters and was left wondering what the outcome would be until the very end. I think that Amy Knupp is a great up and coming writer with a lot of potential. I will be sure to keep her on my watch list.

International freelance photographer Carey Langford is back home in Iowa pregnant with no boyfriend having ended her relationship with Jerod last month. She debates with herself who she should tell, but rules out everyone except her long time best friend Devin Colyer, Jerod's cousin. However, she even hesitates turning to Devin because she knows he hates Jerod. Still she needs to confide in someone so she tells Devin. After the initial shock passes, Devin, who has loved Carey since high school and would do almost anything for her, has problems with the fact that she is carrying Jerod's child. Still this is his beloved and he must decide whether to tell her how he feels, which also means loving someone else's offspring or losing his last opportunity with Carey. The relationship between Carey and Devin make this an interesting character study with a strong romantic subplot. Devin has always wanted Carey, but she has always seen him as a close friend. Now he has an opportunity to be more, but has doubts about raising someone else's child, especially the offspring of a person he loathes. Fans will enjoy watching his actions and reactions towards the woman he loves and the innocent unborn she carries. Amy Knupp provides a fascinating relationship drama. Harriet Klausner

Carey Langford's footloose life as a freelance photographer changes when she discovers she's pregnant. She's already broken up with the baby's father, who isn't daddy material. Her best friend, Devin Colyer, could be daddy material, especially since he realizes he loves Carey, but he can't get past the fact that the baby's father is the cousin he hates. But as Carey's stomach grows, so does their attraction. Will they both discover an unexpected complication brings an unexpected love? UNEXPECTED COMPLICATION was a delight. The characters came to life, Carey and Devin so real I felt I knew them by the end of the book and was rooting for them to get together. The conflict keeping them apart was realistic. I loved Carey's "making the best of whatever happens" attitude. I'm looking forward to reading more books by Amy Knupp.
