He’s vowed to become a dad. She’s sure she’d be a terrible mother. Will this forty-week journey tie two strangers' hearts together forever?
Spencer Grayson refuses to answer to anyone. But when he learns the frozen embryo that’s his last link to his late wife has gone missing, the high-powered businessman’s chilly facade cracks. And while he feels a spark of hope when he tracks down the poor-but-gorgeous teacher who’s unwillingly ended up pregnant with his child, he’s not sure how to convince her to keep the baby.
Winter Alexander never wanted kids. So she doesn’t know where to turn when a coldly handsome mogul is on the warpath because her IUD-egg-mishap is his only chance at fulfilling a promise to his wife. And while she’s not about to roll over and do his bidding, there’s something in his grief-stricken pleas that has her considering the crazy choice to be a surrogate.
Intrigued by the color and creativity the talented woman brings to his world, Grayson realizes he wants the one thing his riches can’t buy. But while Winter loves the intimacy of the powerful guy’s passionate embrace, new information about the pregnancy leaves her feeling horribly betrayed.
Can they transform the mistake of a lifetime into a portrait of perfection?

Imagine going in for a routine IUD placement, only to find out weeks later that you’re pregnant. Total shocker, right? But then things get even more complicated—you find out the baby’s father is a billionaire businessman who hired a surrogate to carry embryos created with his late wife. Talk about catastrophic. That’s the wild situation Winter Alexander and Spencer Grayson are suddenly thrown into.

The Winter of My Love comes with a myriad of emotions. The premise draws you in and keeps you hooked until the very end. Winter and Spencer come from different worlds, but fate brings them together, revealing an unexpected and powerful connection. Winter is independent and wary of motherhood, while Spencer is a grieving billionaire desperate to fulfill a promise to his late wife.

The emotional depth in this story is just what I expected from the author. The pages are full of tension, chemistry, and moments that really hit hard as Spencer and Winter struggle with grief and what it means to become parents. But it’s also tender and hopeful, with quiet scenes that show love can grow in the most unexpected ways.

Their journey isn’t perfect—but it’s real. And that’s what makes this story so memorable. There were a few moments where the pacing slowed a bit, but overall, the story was strong and full of heart. The story reminds us that love doesn’t always come in the way we expect, but when it does, it can change everything.

A romance that starts with a twist and ends with all the feels. Grief, hope, love, and a connection neither saw coming. The Winter of My Love by J. L. Lora is an emotional ride you don’t want to miss
