 📖 I received a gifted e-book ARC. The following is my honest review✍🏻

 Zeta Rodgers Needs to Relax is a dual POV surprise pregnancy romance. Zeta and Ash meet one night and spend the night together, but circumstances keep them apart and unable to contact one another for 4 months. During that time Zeta learns that she is pregnant and when she reconnects with Ash they have to decide how to proceed as essentially strangers AND a family all at once.

This one was cute! I felt like the ending was rushed, but the story was enjoyable. I liked that Zeta was determined to figure out who they were to each other outside of the pregnancy, and that Ash was willing to meet her on her terms.

Zeta is a Black freelance programmer with vasovagal syndrome, a condition that makes her pass out when stressed. She manages her stress with computer games and a no-nonsense approach to life. Ash is a temporary CEO whose life is nothing but stress. He is overwhelmed by the prospect of taking over his father's company and grappling with having every detail of his life planned by his parents. After a steamy one-night stand, Ash departs for a business trip only to learn said one-night stand, Zeta, is the company's newest hire— and she's pregnant! Ash and Zeta soon realize they have to do everything in reverse to move forward. With those around them all against the relationship, these two opposites are determined to make it work, if only they can actually start trusting each other.
