At forty-four, Cynthia Smart is exactly where she wants to be. Almost.
She has worked in the company most of her adult life and plans to become CEO in a couple of years. For now, though, she’s still busy shimmying up the greasy pole of corporate business. She’s single, carefree, and independent, and nothing can stop her getting what she wants and deserves.
Until she discovers she’s pregnant.
She’s convinced that having a baby and the job together will make little difference to her life. She will be holding down a demanding job and also be a perfect mother.
As her pregnancy progresses, life becomes harder.Besides, she has the sneaking suspicion of the new guy, Max Oakland. He’s devilishly handsome, appears to be a really nice fella, and is good in a crisis. She feels that he is out to steal her dream job. That she’s terribly attracted to him doesn’t help.
She gradually comes to realize that something has got to give, but not her heart. .

Cynthia Smart’s Midwife Crisis by Liz Davies Review:
This book is just adorable and made me smile. It’s the perfect rom-com without any unnecessary drama.
The highlight of the story is the characters. Cynthia is fun as the main character who gets pregnant unexpectedly. At times, she got on my nerves, because I didn’t like the way she kept running away from Max. Even though I could understand her situation, it was a bit frustrating seeing her unable to trust anyone. However, she is also hilarious and cranky, and it was fun to see how she coped with the pregnancy. I loved Max! He is just the perfect male character. At times, I felt he was too perfect for words as he didn’t have any flaws. But I loved his relation with Cynthia, and their time together.
Even the supporting characters are so lovely. I loved Cynthia’s mother Maggie. They both have a beautiful mother-daughter relationship where they talk to each other like friends. Maggie is also very quirky and speaks her mind openly, which was funny at times. Sally is another adorable character who I wished was more involved in the story.
The author writes the tale in such a simple and engaging manner. Even though the story is nothing new, it feels fresh and puts a smile on your face. Also, even though Cynthia and Max are in their 40s, the author has written their characters with a touch of innocence and immaturity. Hence a person of any age group can relate to them. The pregnancy also ends in a very interesting manner that makes this book memorable.
Overall, “Cynthia Smart’s Midwife Crisis” is a breezy romantic comedy and I enjoyed it.
