She's driven, energetic, and a positive thinker. She has a great career working for famed self-help guru Ian Fortune, she lives in a cute studio apartment in Manhattan, and her family is supportive and loving (albeit a little kooky). Her life is perfect. Absolutely wonderful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExcept for one \u003cem\u003etiny\u003c\/em\u003e little thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter a decade of disastrous relationships and an infertility diagnosis, Gemma doesn't want a Mr. Right (or even a Mr. Right Now), she just wants a baby.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd all she needs is an egg, some sperm, and IVF.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo Gemma makes a New Year's resolution: have a baby.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJosh Lewenthal is a laid back, relaxed, find-the-humor-in-life kind of guy. The polar opposite of Gemma. He's also her brother's best friend. For the past twenty years Josh has attended every Jacobs' family birthday, holiday, and event - he's always around.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGemma \u003cem\u003eknows\u003c\/em\u003e him. He's nice (enough), he's funny (-ish), he's healthy (she thinks) and he didn't burn any ants with a magnifying glass as a kid. Which, in Gemma's mind, makes him the perfect option for a sperm donor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo Gemma wants to make a deal. An unemotional, businesslike arrangement. No commitments, just a baby.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo Gemma's surprise, Josh agrees.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey have nothing in common, except their agreement to make a baby and their desire to keep things businesslike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut the thing about baby-making...it's hard to keep it businesslike, it's nearly impossible to keep it unemotional, and it's definitely impossible to keep your heart out of the mix. Because when you're making a baby together, things have a way of starting to feel like you're making other things too - like a life, and a family, and love. And when the baby-making ends, you wish that everything else didn't have to end too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 366\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.82 x 8.25 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 25, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAward:\u003c\/strong\u003e Benjamin Franklin Award (2023)\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAward:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards (2022)\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51775270027552,"sku":"9781954007192","price":24.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/5f7c3ad2bd6c92afc1b808f2d157e501.webp?v=1780460004","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/josh-and-gemma-make-a-baby-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
