Publisher's Summary

Penny:

My biological clock just exploded. Eighteen months. That's how long I have to make a baby happen before it becomes one more broken dream. Fate has a sick sense of humor, though. Its name is Hayden Shaw. Yes, the Hayden Shaw. Billionaire developer, scandalously gorgeous, his hard-headed ego only eclipsed by his enormous...reputation. He needs a bride to fool the world. I need a baby. It's simple business. Strictly professional.

Hayden:

My new wife is completely insane. The spitfire who just agreed to play pretend thinks we're doing this baby thing in a lab, without ending up between the sheets. Too bad I see right through it whenever she says her favorite line. Strictly professional? Please. Too bad I taste how bad she wants it when we're giving the press something to talk about, lips tangled together like there's no tomorrow. She's also my last chance at stopping a scheme to steal the family fortune, turning my riches to rags. But I'm Hayden Shaw. I'm in control. I don't back down. Ms. Naughty and Nice will never, ever know how bad I'm twisted up in our chase. Contains mature themes.

Her Lion King

I have read these books out of order. I first read Baby Fever Secret Baby book 3 and now I am reading this one which is book one. Well actually I listen to the audio while following along with this ebook. If I could change something about this book it would be to have this book have the whispersync feature but that is the only thing I would change.

I loved the audio. Nicole Snow had 2 narrators with this book and let me tell you these two done an amazing job. I loved each and every emotion they shown while reading the book.

Penny was having the worst day of her life. I can not imagine receiving the news she had received. She was young and saving herself for the man she loved one day. Now here she is finding out she has the Zeno virus and her chances of having a baby is on a time line. She sees her hopes and dreams going out the window.

If only that is where her bad luck ended. No her day just keep getting worse and worse but you will have to read the book to find out more. The only good thing was she got to meet Mr Handsome, Hayden Shaw. He was her night in shinning armor.

Hayden was your typical billionaire bachelor. He was a true playboy. That did not mean he did not have his problems. Oh, he had tons of problems and it was surrounded by his stepmother. WOW, that woman was pure evil and would stop at nothing to get her way.

I loved the song and dance that Hayden and Penny did. Hayden needed a wife and Penny wanted a baby. Yeah, and they thought they were going to keep this professional.

I loved reading how Hayden and Penny started falling for each other. They will have several road blocks along the way. Not only do they have a crazy stepmother to deal with but a crazy ex as well. Yeah Brie was pretty out there.

I loved how close the Shaw brothers were. It will take a lot for Hayden to convince his brothers that his marriage is real. The stuff his two brothers said about poor Penny. I have to say when Hayden faced the hugest challenge of his life his brothers were there.

I loved Penny’s mother. She was super funny. If it came to her mind, she said it. I love how Hayden won her over. It was like he understood her. You will get so many laughs when reading about their encounter. As far as Penny’s sister Katie I am not certain I like her. She truly was jealous of Penny and seemed to only like her sister when her sister’s life was falling apart. It was like she got enjoyment out of Penny’s pain.

It was great to see a character or two from a previously series the Grizzlies MC. We got to know a little more about Hayden. He had a totally different life from his billionaire life style and that was good to see.

We also got to see another side of Hayden. Hayden truly had a good heart. he cared for others. He ends of giving Penny a couple of very special gifts. He will truly swoon you.

I so loved this book and hope to see the other books in the series come out in audio. Still need to read book 2 of this series and looking forward to that read.

A fun story.

Obviously if you're looking for Shakespeare you would be disappointed. But if you like a billionaire instant love story, we'll, you are all set.

I really wanted to like this book *spoilers*

The narration was fine, unfortunately that is as good as it gets. The story had potential, but then it would take these weird and crude turns. What was the author thinking??? Penny makes the decision to be his fake bride then by the time they get married she is mad at him for agreeing to it. She accuses him of coming to her with the ideas on a couple of occasions. Then there's the mother, who is beyond foul mouthed and nasty. Then for some reason, the sister is all of a sudden jealous of Penny, although they never say why. when the sister is married with a child and Penny admits to being envious of her. She misjudges him for flirting at a party and apologizes,, but she doesn't learn from it. Then for the climactic part of the story, the ex makes a claim and Penny believes it and runs, even though the day before, she says she loves him and all that. I hate repetitive monologs with no growth and Penny seems to digress from beginning to end. Like the determined heroine in the beginning chapters and then defeated and dumb at the end. Will not be reading another Nicole Snow story.

Baby Fever

Emotional roller coaster!! Full of angst and heart tugging moments. I was rooting for this couple the whole time.

Baby Fever Bride

First, I have to say I enjoyed this story. The narrators did a wonderful job. There were some conflicting things in this story, there was so much bad and forth, I was not sure who or what to root for. That being said, I was entertaining.

uncouth is the word that comes to mind here

**Spoilers**

Seriously, it just doesn't make sense. She proposes the marriage to him and then says he forced her into it. He has mirror on his ceiling, really, really, that makes him sound like an immature idiot.

I just couldn't finish it. I hate leaving bad reviews, but this is one of the worse books I've ever read.

The narration is not great. The Christopher Slye sounds good, but Shirl Rae's voice had an echo and it was driving me nuts. I thought audible books would have better sound. Even I can do better sound in my place.

So glad it was for free in the Audible Escape, or I would have been asking for my money back.

Nope

So glad it was free. The amount of errors ticked me off. She approached him with the plan and yet two times she says “how did I let him talk me into this” or “ever since he came to me with this plan”.. uh no, bad editing because it was all her. Stupid ex makes a claim and instead of sticking around to find out the truth she says I need space and time to think.. way to stand by your man. Female leads voice really annoyed me. Put it all together and I am just glad I didn’t buy it. Won’t be listening to the next two because the same narrators for those as well and I can’t listen to her for another minute

Hot sexy sweet......Loved!!

Great book read in one setting......only thing i did not care for was it could have been a shorter story......any other time I like the long storylines.....chapter 7 or 8 is when it really takes off.....

He needed a bride, she needed a baby

After receiving news that she may never conceive after contracting a deadly virus, Penny stepped into a train where she was rescued by Hayden Shaw from a possible kidnapping incident.

He needed a bride, she needed a baby. To solve their problems, the two of them set up abusiness proposal. They never counted on love to muddle the waters, triggering a series of events that nearly broke them apart.

I have had the pleasure of reading stories penned by Nicole Snow for quite some time. Baby Fever Bride was the very first book of hers that I read, but it is only now, after finishing the audiobook version, that I realized that I haven't had the chance to share my thoughts.

Well. I recall that when I read the ebook, what caught my attention, besides the blurb, was the scene on the train. Knowing that I always love the thought of a knight in shining armor coming to the rescue of a damsel in distress, I decided to go ahead and one-click. And I was not disappointed, not at all.

Now that I had the chance to listen to the audiobook and enjoyed the narration given by Shirl Rae and Christopher Slye, I will definitely be diving into the rest of the series, to see what Hayden's brothers, Luke and Grant, are up to. And reader, so should you!

Penny was a brat!

I need to vent! Penny is the one that cane up with marriage idea. Then acts like she can’t decide if she wants to, then is all no sex while going all bitch mode! Now she’s abandoning him when his crazy liar ex of his starts an obvious lie to get her to leave so he will lose his inheritance! She knows leaving him will cost him everything and she’s playing some victim. Ugh I’m so mad. And why go to Her sisters place unless she likes being the victim knowing her sister will just make her feel worst! I hate her and her whole family! Reading that letter she wrote just pissed me off more! She’s really going to do this to him! Cause him his inheritance while getting her baby. Because come on we all know she’s pregnant! Ok still listening. The only way to redeem this is if she goes to him and apologizes!

Finally got to the end. The mom turned out ok, but still pissed he had to chase her and prove himself!
