Nine Month Contract by Amy Daws

This contemporary romance offers moderate-to-strong exposure opportunities for anyone working through emetophobia. Because the story centers around an unexpected pregnancy, nausea and morning sickness are recurring plot elements. Throughout the book, there are multiple on-page vomiting scenes, frequent mentions of nausea, and several moments involving toilets, dry heaving, and sickness-related dialogue.

Scenes range from mild discomfort to more vivid descriptions of characters actively vomiting, especially during emotionally charged or stressful moments.

Because these triggers appear regularly across the story, readers can use this book to practice exposure with:

  • Frequent nausea discussions

  • On-page vomiting

  • Toilet-focused sickness moments

  • Morning sickness described multiple times

  • Sudden or unexpected mentions of feeling sick

A good pick if you're looking for consistent, pregnancy-related exposure within a character-driven romance that balances humor, stress, and emotional development.
