New Steamy contemporary romance from New York Times Bestselling Author JS CooperI just wanted to have some fun…It all started when I moved into my new apartment in Brooklyn and met my neighbor, Olivia. We became fast friends and so when she had to go out of town on an emergency work trip, I agreed to give her brother her keys so he could look after her dog. And then I met him. Her brother was … Her brother was Carter Stevens and he was sex on legs. He was a banker by day and a musician by night; arrogant, handsome, with the most tantalizing smile I’d ever seen. When he invited me to his show, I couldn’t say no.
He wasn’t looking for a relationship…
The night of the show we stumbled back to my place and had fun I can only blush thinking about. I’d never had a one-night stand before, but one night soon led to two, which led to three. Carter was exciting and mysterious, but he was a total playboy. He made it clear that this was some no strings attached fun.
But fate had other plans for us…
I thought we’d been careful, but I guess there was that one time that we weren’t. And now, I’m pregnant and Carter Stevens and I have to figure out what to do next because one thing we both know for sure is that the baby is coming in nine months and we have no idea what to do next.

Lila is a lawyer and Carter is an aspiring musician. They meet when Lila is waiting to give Carter his sister apartment keys so he can dog sit for her while she is away. His sister warned her that he was a playboy and not to get involved with him but she was attracted and did so anyway. Carter showed some jealous tendencies that were weird for a playboy even when she told him the guy she was with was just her friend Dante. Things heat up between them and end up getting really serious. Then Carter gets the big break he was looking for. Will it end things between him and Lila? Or can they work things out long distance?
This is a great story about how a couple struggle through a new relationship. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

J. S. Cooper did a great job on this story. The plot was written well, I enjoyed Carter and Lila’s story. These two were good for each other, their connection and the chemistry between them was strong. They were great together.
I love that this story is not too long and it has a few different tropes that work well together. Lila and Carter have amazing chemistry and what starts out as a one night thing quickly turns to more. I had a hard time at times actually getting into the story though. There were times where their behavior didn’t make sense but I loved the characters.
This is a fun book, its about two people that just want some fun for a little while, they get more then they bargained for.
Standalone with no cliffhangers.
Lila is an attorney but it’s not quite the life she hoped for, it’s a lot of work but the money is great. When she meets her neighbors hot brother she thought it was just going to be one night, it became so much more. The problem is he won’t commit to anything.
Carter is a 30 year old playboy who never plans on committing to anything but his band and it’s future. Lila has somehow worked her way into his life and now he’s not sure how his future should look.
I enjoyed this book, the only problem I found was the abrupt ending. Everything had a nice slow build story line going then it felt like the last part progressed way to fast. Still well woth reading.

This story was adorable. It starts as a fling that is incredibly hot and continues until she ends up pregnant. They end up staying together in a very sweet ending and this was just an all around adorable book.

Great romance with a lot of steam.
Olivia and Carter was a great couple, strong characters and feelings,they don’t want to admit to.
He never did relationships, she wasn’t ready for new one. But they fall for each other almost instantly. The surprise they didn’t except complicated simple “ no relationship “ situation.
Funny banters brought a lot of smile for me as I was rooting for them.
The book has a happy ending and follow up in the next book.
Very enjoyable and entertaining read.

This is the story of Lila and Carter. Lila is dog sitting for her neighbor until her neighbor’s brother Carter can take over. Instant sparks when Lila and Carter meet. They both don’t have time for a relationship so decide on one night which turns into two, etc. etc. Then oops two pink lines on a pregnancy test. This was a short read that introduced you to the characters and left you wanting more from book two. I can’t wait to see what life has in store for these two.

A great story about Lila and Carter. Lila is an Attorney and moved to New York. She meet Carter when his sister going out of town for awhile and he is staying in her apartment, which is next door to Lila’s. They have this instant connection that you cant miss. They both don’t want anything serious to happen with him going from wall street to full time musician and her schedule make it hard. They wanted only one time, but how long is that going to last? What going to happen when they finds out she pregnant, with his music career starting to?

3.5**** stars Lila meets Carter, her friend and neighbor’s, brother. She is warned that he is a player and not get involved with him. They have agreed to have no strings attached. Well, that doesn’t last long. Jealousy and other fun emotions are coming into play the longer they are seeing each other. One careless night creates an accidental baby. What to do now? Should Carter continue to pursue his musical career or stay with Lila. Should Lila go back to Iowa to have this baby. Nicely written and entertaining read.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book
Along Came Baby is nothing like I expected it would be (in a good way). It’s not exactly your typical accidental pregnancy book. I’d read reviews on this book when it first released and was discouraged from buying and reading it but was lucky to receive an ARC, and let it be clear that I really did like this book. I loved Lila’s character; she really made this book so much better by being such a caring, lovable heroine. Carter has his (bad) moments, and if not for his POV I probably wouldn’t have liked him as much, but he, like many guys, is not used to being in a relationship and having strong feelings for a “significant other” so to speak. His and Lila’s relationship was not as “ideal” as other couples from different romance novels, but that made their book so much better. Yes they had a sort of toxic relationship going for them, with Carter being possessive and jealous, but many real relationships are that way and I could see that Carter was struggling with figuring his feelings out and wasn’t a bad person either. The plot and characters to this book were amazing and I’m excited to get to Dante’s book next. The only problem I had with this book was the abrupt ending, it felt very rushed and felt as if the missing scenes should have been included to make this book feel complete. I can’t wait to get the second part in September!

Overall a good read. Instant attraction becomes more when what was suppose to be a one night stand makes for an unexpected outcome. Lila was a likable character who has her life figured out but when she meets Carter instant chemistry made for some hot loving that brings feeling to life. Carter was your typical casanova but Lila rocks his world and than comes baby. We need to wait to see how their HEA plays out and Ali can’t wait for it.
This is the 1st book in the along came love series. Carter is a play boy and Lila is his sisters friend. neither one wants a relationship but what happens when a baby is thrown in the mix?

Lila and Carter’s story is entertaining. It has plenty of emotions. Their relationship while steamy with drama is a bit shallow. This is a fun read.
I really enjoyed this book, but I didn’t realise there was going to be a book 2 arghhhhhhhh! I need it now
But on the up, I know Dante story is coming, will his cousins be coming too?

Music – musicians – love or not love? This story is just so sweet. It is a good love story. What was not clear to me is if this story is a part of a series or not? As in the end it says that the next story is Along came marriage… and in the excerpt the same people seem to be the focus of the story as in this one… Well, from this story I can only say that it is good and the ending can be the ending of a story and it can offer an option to continue. Privately – I will not read more about these two I hope because as much as I liked this story, I really have no tolerance for stories ending with cliffhangers or ending and then another story suddenly appears about the same people… When it is not explicitely said that it is a story in a few volumes, i.e. you know beforehand it will be a family serie, well… Anyway, this story was good and worthy of four stars.

This starts out as a one night stand between Lila and Carter that quickly turns into much more especially when she finds out a little secret. This is not this authors best book but I enjoyed reading this book as well as several others.
