About Author


Kim Golden grew up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and spent most of my childhood summers in Smithfield, Virginia. Not sure where her love of words comes from, but she has loved books since she was a child and she has loved writing stories for as long as she can remember.
Her parents wanted her to do something practical–be an engineer, a doctor, a lawyer, an accountant. But she always dreamed of doing something completely different. She knew She wanted to be a writer, even if it took a bit of time for her to get to that point.
It led me to spend more time writing stories than studying physics and chemistry in high school. It’s what led her study literature and then work on an MFA in Creative Writing at Virginia Commonwealth University. And when she finished her master’s degree, love led her away from the US and brought me to Sweden.
So what does she write? she writes about relationships, about love. she often writes about interracial relationships. I like reading stories about people who are different, who see past the differences and fall in love. And those are the stories she also enjoys writing. I write stories for people who know that love comes in many colors.

Maybe Baby Synopsis:
Imagine finding out you could never have a baby with the man you love... 

Expat American Laney Halliwell finds out the hard way when Niklas tells her he had a vasectomy before they met and isn't interested in reversing it. Why should he? They've got his kids from his first marriage and an enviable life in Stockholm. 

What if you fell in love in the most unexpected way...? 

But Laney wants more. So when a friend suggests she look into an alternative sperm bank in Copenhagen to find a potential father for her baby, things don't go exactly as planned. Especially when Laney meets Mads and finds herself falling in love.


EXCERPT

Excerpt 3 - Maybe Baby 

That night, I tried to make love to Niklas, without thinking about Mads. Whenever my mind wandered, I focused only on Niklas and tightening my arms around him or breathing in the warm scent of him. I kept my eyes open so I saw only him, his dark hair now mussed up as he braced his arms on either side of my head... as his cock rubbed inside me, hitting just the right spots to elicit a surprised moan. I didn't think of Mads when Niklas flipped me over and took me from behind. I didn't think about him when I came. I didn't think about Mads until after my body slowly returned to normal, no longer attuned to Niklasʼs every move, every breath... when the catch of his breath was no longer in my ear, and his hands no longer taking possession of me, my thoughts became restless and my body, though satisfied, longed for the touch of another pair of hands.  
I lay beside Niklas, listening to his breathing even out as he fell into dreams. Our bodies were still entwined, but our minds no longer connected. The air in the room was heavy and damp. I tried to inch away, but I was caught.  
He murmured in a sleep-heavy voice, "I love you, baby."  
"Love you, too," I whispered back.  
But the emotions behind the words rang hollow. Oh, babe... what happened to us? When did the love we shared dissipate?  
I wanted to go back in time. Back to that night when Niklas and I first met, in the bar at the Hilton Hotel in Södermalm. That night, when he first hooked me and I lost my desire to be footloose, to be free to fuck whomever I wanted when I wanted.  
I wished I could return to that moment and figure out just what spell he'd cast over me and recast it, so I could love him more. Because I was scared.  
Were we just idling until our relationship died a slow, uneventful death, or would it implode with a ferocity that would leave us both scarred? What would happen to us?  
I couldn't sleep that night. Even with Niklasʼs body curled around mine, I found no solace. I'd set this in motion and now it was spiraling out of my control 




MY REVIEW ---- FOUR STARS * * * * 
Laney Halliwell doesn't ask for much, but the one thing she really wants, the man she loves can't and won't give it to her. 
A baby. She wants this so much and can't understand why Niklas won't give it to her, why he doesn't want that with her?

Niklas, has two kids, an EX wife oh and had a vasectomy. Which he didn't tell Laney about. He is a therapist. He is content with having two kids, who really don't accept Laney, not whole heartedly anyway. Oh and he is still friends with his EX!! wife Karolina *SHUDDERS* even that name just shouts bitch doesn't it? He confides in her with his relationship with Laney, with their problems, as if Laney is a petulant child. Can you tell I'm not Niklas' biggest fan? First impression of Niklas you ask? easy. DOUCHEBAG. Sometimes I felt a little, the tiniest bit of guilt for him, but then just remembered how he is and what he has done and that guilt goes away as quick as it came.

Laney? Laney Laney. Ok I really liked her. I do. But I wanted to shout at her, shake her and then hug her. She's in a relationship with Niklas, she loves him, but it seems she always has to prove herself and that's what exactly she does, she is constantly proving herself for the five years they are together. Until. Something snaps in her, I think the fact that she wants a baby more than anything but she is repeatedly psychoanalyzed by her boyfriend making her feel silly.  She is persuaded to check out a sperm bank and she does and this is where the story begins. 

Mads a sperm donor. A very popular one at too is just getting by and donating to the sperm bank helps that. He and Laney have a connection immediately. They start to spend time  together.

Feelings get involved.
Now Laney has a choice to make.
The man who makes her feel safe. What she knows.
Or take the risk on the man that makes her feel alive.


I'm not going to lie some of the relationship problems that  are raised in this book, are not usually my liking, hell they never are I really dislike it. (I'm not going to spoil it for anyone, you'll know what I mean when you read it) I really liked Laney, but I got pissed off at her sometimes, I felt she was so selfish and stupid at times. But then I felt guilty and sad for her, because you will connect with Laney so much and she will feel like a friend, like you know what's best for her but she's not taking your advice. I really felt like screaming at her sometimes...

That said, I needed to know the rest of the story,and glad I got past that, because I loved the story. I loved where it's set, I love the racial differences. I felt like I was learning so much as well as falling in love with this story. I think Kim pushes the boundaries with her stories, with love, because not many authors go there, not enough anyway, in my opinion. I love how this really takes you on a journey and out of your comfort zones because it's not easy love in this book it pushes a lot of boundaries and it's fighting for love and it is so real, this is a real life love story but it's still a love story and not a single person can say this is un-realistic, as many people like to shout at fictional authors, ( which immensely pisses me off anyway) but with this one they can't, because for me this is one of the most realistic love story's I have ever read. I also loved Eddy. I'm so glad we get her story!

Maybe Tonight; A novella.



SYNOPSIS:

Mads Rasmussen has had enough: of being a sperm donor, of feeling disconnected, of being alone. 
Then someone walks into his life in a most unexpected way... 

Maybe Tonight gives a glimpse of Mads's life just before and just after he meets Laney in Maybe Baby.

Maybe Tonight is a novella









Maybe Tonight is Mads Rasmussen before, during and after.
It is a novella and you will have to read Maybe Baby to understand it.

I'm so happy about this. I was dying to get into Mads head. Especially during Maybe Baby, I had so many questions For Mads. I love that man, but had so many questions for him and was hoping for his Point of View too. But this was much better than just a chapter or two from him.

We get to know so much of Mads. It's not Mads telling the same story, it's the story from his point of view, how different the things that happened, meant and effected each differently.  We got to get into Mads head. Really know more about him, what he thought, how he felt, how he was effected by their story.





Reading this, my heart broke for Mads, my heart melted for him and I fell even more in love with him. I connected with him so much more with him in this and so glad we got to experience that. We get to see what happened after the ending of Maybe Baby. How it effects everyone involved in the story. I can't say much without spoiling it. So what I will say you absolutely need to get both of these books by Kim Golden because she knows how to tell a story for sure, knows how to write compelling characters and a challenging love story.
