Knit, Purl, A Baby and A Girl, by Hettie Bell, is a charming queer romance novel, about a knitting club and a surprise baby.
Poppy is the family screwup, but in the cute way, where she’s got a stable if boring job and her own quirkily-decorated studio apartment. A drunken hookup with her ex led to a surprise pregnancy, and after a perfectly supportive chat with a Planned Parenthood counselor, she decides to go motherhood alone.
Well, maybe not quite alone, as she stumbles into a new romance with Rhiannon, and into an eclectic, warm friend group in a knitting club.
This follows the usual Harlequin beats slightly too well to feel much tension, but sometimes you’re in the mood for instalove, wild sex, and the reliable resolution of misunderstandings. The quirky knitting club characters and Poppy’s cheerful attitude make this quick read a fun read.
Knit, Purl, A Baby and A Girl is by Hettie Bell and will be published on March 30th, 2021 by the new Harlequin imprint, Carina Adores.
