About this ebook
Pediatric surgeon Grace Sutherland has just arrived at Jimmie's Children's Unit. She may not have a baby of her own, but she'll devote her life to these little patients.
Greek doctor Theo Corones can't deny the instant attraction he feels for beautiful Grace, but he can never give her the very thing she longs for--a child. Theo's heart was broken when he lost his beloved family, and he has no plans to start another.
But when Grace discovers she's expecting Theo's baby, the gorgeous Greek doctor finds himself rethinking his future.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5wow, I simply enjoyed this book. It's a refreshing story.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Not everyone enjoys romances where the main issue is a lack of communication, but when done well, this is the best kind of contemporary romance in my opinion. So often assumption and miscommunication causes conflict in real life, and the point of contemporary romance, at least to my mind, is to show people meeting real challenges and overcoming them in the name of love. The Bride’s Baby takes a man who does not believe in love to the point of marrying for convenience and pairs him with a gold digger who finds love. No, Tom McFarlane is not destined to go through with his planned marriage to Candida Harcourt. She falls for someone else and leaves him with the bills for an overblown fantasy wedding that never happened. Instead, it’s Sylvia Smith, Candida’s friend and the wedding coordinator hired to spend his money, who creeps in past his armor until he has to face up to the truth that love does exist it found him when he least expected it. This book is more about Tom’s journey to love than Sylvia’s, but don’t for one minute think she’s a passive bystander. Sylvia believes in love to the point of crafting that perfect moment for everyone else. She’s been disappointed before, and like Tom, abandoned before the wedding. However, before you start to think Sylvie history makes her sympathetic, or the electric connection between them from their first meeting makes her weak, think again. The novel starts with Sylvie coming to collect on her substantial invoice because she needs the money to pay the many vendors who had already provided services for the wedding that would never be. And if that’s not reason enough for conflict, the man her friend eloped with was one of her staff. While the title seems to give the story away, and yes, they do end up in bed together before their happily ever after is obtained, the conflicts and assumptions are all viable, confusing not just the main characters but others around them. It’s well written, well set up, and a fun book to read, with both heated moments and hard ones as fate and human nature seem determined to keep them apart. Though I read this last year, as you can see, I retained a lot of the story, and am contemplating a re-read, something I rarely do, because I want to re-experience every step in their journey.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5IN this story Sylvie is a event planner and is hired by an old school mate to plan her wedding to a billonire and when the old friend leave the rich man .. the bill is left and Sylvie goes to hatch out the bill with Tom and they end up in bed. When she leaves due to a call from work he run to the airport and leaves town and is gone for 6 months. When he returns to a house he bought he has a big surprise when she is there planning "her" fantasy wedding and she is six months pregnant. He is thinking it it to her ex whom he seen pics of her with in a celebrity mag but it is really his little girl she is having when he finds out he asks her to marry him and its happy ever after .
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5If you've read the item description, you probably think this book will be about a man who is surprised to find a woman who is pregnant months after they were together, and that when he realizes the baby is his, the story takes off. That's not the case. In fact, the description is misleading. In this story, Sylvie is an event coordinator. She was hired to plan the wedding of a former classmate to Tom, a handsome billionaire. When his bride-to-be runs out on him mere days before the wedding, Sylvie meets with him to collect payment for her vendors. They are attracted to one another, sparks fly, and a one-night-stand follows. He runs away (literally--he hops a plane and is gone for 6 months), supposedly because he can't get her off his mind. Meanwhile, Sylvie finds out she's pregnant and sends him a letter to let him know, a letter he never receives, because he's been out of the country. While he's away, Sylvie appears on the cover of a gossip magazine, pregnant. The gossip magazine reports that the baby's father is her ex. Tom now feels that she has gotten over him and is carrying another man's child. He finally returns to find that his property is the location of a "fake" wedding planned by Sylvie. She's planning her dream wedding in exchange for the magazine's large contribution to her late mother's charity. Tom thinks the wedding is real, and that her ex will be the groom. The spark between he and Sylvie lingers and he finds himself falling harder for her with each day they spend together. Meanwhile, Sylvie is furious, believing that he wants nothing to do with her or their child. In the end, they both realize the truth and achieve their happy ending. Aside from the fact that the story did not in any way resemble the description, it was very difficult to follow. The dialogue was confusing. Single quotes are used rather than traditional quotation marks, and when internal dialogue is used (or remembering someone else's earlier words), it is both in italics and quotes. Thrown into normal dialogue, it's very confusing. It isn't always clear who's saying what. This should be caught by editing, but honestly, it's just a very poor writing style. Dialogue should flow effortlessly, and here it's a jumbled mess. The story was just ridiculous. There are several instances where Tom, helping Sylvie plan the "fake" wedding, asks about her ex, Jeremy. This would be the time in real life when she would ask why he's bringing up her ex. Instead, she says nothing, so he continues to believe she is marrying Jeremy. Any normal woman would have addressed it, but Sylvie does not. It makes no sense. I also found it strange that she would say anything to Tom in person about his being the baby's father. A normal pregnant woman, being around the child's father for days, would eventually have asked him about it. The only idea here is that Sylvie and Tom had a big misunderstanding and it has to be as drawn out as possible to work. It ends up being confusing and cumbersome. There should have been other issues to make the story work, but they are not present. I don't know how this is classified as a romance, because there's nothing romantic about it. They barely know each other when they have a one-night-stand. The fact that they can't stop thinking about each other is a case of lust, not love. In the end, it's not believable in the least. If you want to read something truly romantic, I'd recommend Judith McNaught or Julia Quinn.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Real and balanced, Sylvie was a great heroine. Tom took a bit of time to develop. You wanted to like him a little over half way through. You wonder how they can banter with their history, the "fantasy" wedding and baby between them. You could tell if they ever talked or completely cleared the air that they would be fine. The ending is what got it the half star otherwise it was a solid three.Early in the book, it was a little confusing on what actually happened post-hook up. It is later cleared up, but it almost stopped me from going forward due to the confusion.I would read a Liz Fielding book in the future.
