The scorching-hot New Year's Eve romp Mia Parker spent with a sexy stranger was reckless, amazing... and never to be repeated. So why did she agree to marry him three years later?

Nor did he expect to pick up where they'd left off...
Members Reviews:
'Ben's Indecisions' is a better book title .
This tale's setting is in New Zealand and portrays the vacillating and at most times confusing story of past lovers. They 'accidentally' meet and try ever-so painfully to rekindle their love.The story is froth with so many life-changing decisions that are quickly made and discarded. The fact it ends 'happily ever after ' is a total surprise to me.
Their 2 yr old son ,Jasper, accepts Ben into his life too easily. It leaves me thinking that he,Jasper, was either truly starved for the love of his father or a male role model. Mia seems so willing to capitulate her life and her family's retreat business to Ben after a romantic night. A life and business that she has toiled for and rebuilt after her father's suicide. Ben causally suggests that they get married and move back to his family's privately-owned vineyard while she deserts her business. Mia inwardly frets about Ben's decision, yet there is very little done on her part to actively convince him that this decision was not made in the best interest of her or her son. When Ben finally realizes that he's made another unilateral decision that has hurt Mia, he decides to leave her and her son in New Zealand even though they are now married. Does Mia fight against this impetous decision of Ben's? No, she does not. She just cries a bit and goes right back to the operation of her business. Too many rashly, 'Ben-made', decisions that irked me throughout this book. I doubted that 'true love' was present. An OK overall plot with a weird family curse thrown in but weak, unstable characters detract from it.
Both Ben and Mia have undergone life changing events in their respective lives. But these events don't make them wiser, stronger, more confident, and less selfish people.Tsk! Tsk! This story is really a 3.5 rating.
Mia and Ben are good names for the character's in this book
Mia and Ben are good names for the character's in this book. I liked the name Jasper for their secret child's name. The book took some weird turns like Mia and Ben getting married then Ben talking about leaving his wife and son to return to his home country. Jasper did take to his father, Ben, right away without any fear. I liked how Jasper was given the necklace at the end; i guess to end the family curse.
All good
My favorite type of story.
