Release Blitz & Book Review: The Baby Maker by Lili Valente

The Baby Maker
by Lili Valente
Genre: Sexy Romantic Comedy/Contemporary Romance
Release Date: February 5th, 2018

Blurb:

Some men are troublemakers or dealmakers. The men in my family? We’re baby makers.

For six generations, the women of wine country have had a saying: don’t bang a Hunter man unless you want a bun in your oven.

Yeah, well. I’ve got a saying too: no thanks. The last thing I need is baby makes three. My business is expanding and the only thing I’m interested in getting knocked up is my bottom line.

But then one night Emma Haverford makes me an offer I can’t refuse—she backs away from the land I have my eye on in exchange for a favor…

A big, fat, baby making favor…

******

When I hear women have gotten pregnant shaking hands with Hunter men, I know I need Dylan Hunter’s…ahem, special skills…way more than I need to expand my vineyard.

I’m ready to give my heart to a child and I’m tired of waiting for my late-to-the-party Prince Charming to make my dreams come true. So I promise Dylan—three months of hot, heavy, baby-making s-e-x and then I’m out of his hair forever.

But what if when it comes time to say good-bye, all I want to do is keep bottling up more memories with this big-hearted man?

This sexy Standalone romance will make you laugh, swoon, and blush baby-makin’ red. Heat level: A risk of getting knocked up during download. Paperback and audio versions are especially dangerous. Handle with care…

About the author:

Lili Valente has slept under the stars in Greece, eaten dinner at midnight with French men who couldn’t be trusted to keep their mouths on their food, and walked alone through Munich’s red light district after dark and lived to tell the tale.

These days you can find her writing in a tent beside the sea, drinking coconut water and thinking delightfully dirty thoughts.

My review:

'Life isn't about minimizing risk; it's about maximizing joy.'
This was a sweet love story, funny in the right places and sexy in between. I liked and enjoyed the story although I didn’t anticipate that the characters hit it off so quickly on another level than sex, because it all felt a lot like the early stages of love – dating, sex, and constant touching. It was altogether really sweet but I’d hoped there was less relationship-feeling so soon into the story.

The characters were both hard-working and determined to get what they wanted - in Emma’s case a baby, for which she even gave up the land both her and Dylan had their eyes set on. There was no drama in this quite simple story and everything was pretty low-key. Emma was hell-bent on getting pregnant and it took me a while to get used to her baby-obsession.

Dylan was quite the charmer. How he was still single was a mystery but he obviously wasn’t looking for any commitment. Otherwise he was perfect husband material and I wish people like him - people that helped others so selflessly - really existed.

Honestly, I was prepared to have a decent tummy workout but apart from a few laughs, there wasn’t much else. All in all it was a sweet romance but that’s about it, it wasn’t an all-consuming book though there’s nothing wrong with that. Maybe I just didn’t get the humor or wasn’t invested enough but if you like easy romance then this is your book.
