Would I read more from this author? Hell yes
Would I recommend this book? Yes
This is a series and they flow one right into another, so as such books one and two should definitely be read before jumping into this. The last book ended us with a little bit of a cliffy as to just which Bailey twin was the father to Harley’s baby. Harley being a product of the system, having grown up in foster care, has no trust in anyone, but she also can’t deny her baby girl the chance to know her father. This is why she finds herself in a tiny town in Alaska. What Harley doesn’t realize is this step will change her life forever.
I LOVED this story!!! One of my fav tropes, this was absolutely perfect! With loads of drama, some really freaking funny bits, like I was crying I laughed so hard, and some naughty moments that steamed up my glasses. Piper Rayne has yet again written a book that will hook you in the first page and keep you there until the last word. I am already excited for the next in this series! I give this 5 stars!!
I absolutely loved this book!! While I can’t tell you the baby daddy I can say he was fabulous and I loved him! This was a great story. I love secret baby books. There my favorite and this one did not disappoint. The characters were perfect together and the whole family just added to the story. Cute ending too!!
So as not to spoil the book or the Baby Daddy he will be referred as that or BD for short, that being said this book was super cute and I loved it so much. The family has a wonderful bond and are a close knit group which makes you want to be a part of. Harley sets out to find BD for understandable reasons but she ends up getting so much more. I know this is very vague but I just enjoyed so much and don’t want to ruin it for anyone. I will say if you want a great, funny, sweet read this book is for you as are the other in the series.

Birth of a Baby Daddy was the third book in the Bailey’s series by the authors Piper Rayne. They are my new favorite authors because they keep me giggling and this experience was no different.
The book started exactly where the previous book left off with the Bailey family celebrating Rome’s new restaurant and a female stranger crashing the party wanting to know which twin, Denver or Rome, was her baby daddy.
No spoilers on which twin was the star of this show, so I can’t elaborate, but let’s just say I loved him. His progression was awesome. The authors also unpacked both Harley and “baby daddy’s” baggage as a central part of the storyline. At times it was emotional and frustrating but always funny. And as expected, the Bailey clan bantering and antics were front and center.
All in all, it was a quick, sexy, funny and lighthearted read. It was perfect for a simple, “feel good” reading mood. Finally Liam and Savannah are up next in Falling For My Brother’s Best Friend. Until then, we’re graced with a short novella, Operation Bailey Wedding!
When a mystery woman shows up in Lake Starlight looking for her toddler’s father, she didn’t expect to see twins . . . just who is the baby daddy . . . Denver or Rome?
To keep this review as spoiler free as possible, I won’t be Maury Povich reveal who the father is. He’ll be known as Baby Daddy instead.
Birth of a Baby Daddy is exactly what it sounds like . . . one of the Bailey twins is in fact a dad. Now, he has to figure out how to grow up, be a father and get the girl that he would like to be much more than a one night stand and mother of his child. And readers will love every single second of his transformation!
I loved Harley. She is truly trying to provide the best life she can for her daughter. And, when she realizes that the father wants to be in Calista’s life, she’s willing to uproot her own to make that happen for her baby.
Baby Daddy was awesome. His reactions were so genuine. Shocked at first, he was truly excited at having the chance to be a good father to his newfound daughter. I also loved the slow burn and flirting between Harley and Baby Daddy as they explored the possibility having a relationship. They did everything backwards from a one night stand to a baby to only learning about one another, but they are completely adorable together and so obviously meant to be!
The rest of the Bailey’s are completely thrilled to meet the first in their next generation, especially Grandma Dory! The rest of the town is eager to claim the adorable toddler as one of their own as well.
Birth of a Baby Daddy was a super sweet read. I loved watching this one come together for one heck of a happy ever after. 5 stars!
Harley has come to Alaska to find her baby daddy – Denver Bailey but when she arrives in Lake Starlight, Alaska she discovers that it may not be him but could be his twin brother Rome.
One of the Bailey brothers is now an instant father to Calista but which one is it?
This book is another amazing and funny book in the series that keeps on getting better with more laughs and of course some serious moments along the way!
I loved how much the Bailey family embraced Harley and Calista and made them feel like that they belonged and were not intruding into their family. All of them loved helping with Calista and wanted both of them to stay in Alaska so they could all help with raising her.
One of the best moments was the jalapenos and I was reading in my car with tears running down my face from laughing so hard!! OMG – I will never look at jalapenos the same way and I know from personal experience what it feels like (on my hands) the pain that it can put you in.
I was worried towards the end with the news Harley got and I was sad for the fight that ensued after with trying to keep it quiet but I knew how happy a certain person would be!
The end was great and I have my fingers crossed for an explosive next book with Liam and Savannah!!
“’ , ’ .”
by Piper Rayne will truly touch your heart! This series just keeps getting better and better. If you haven’t fallen in love with yet, you are missing out on something so special!

“If I could trust myself, this situation would be a lot easier.”
Denver and Rome are twins and have always played games. Even with girls. Until a girl appears in the middle of the family dinner, with a little girl in her lap, stating that Denver is the father, but the arrival of Rome reveals: there are two potential fathers for this baby.
And at least two questions remain in the air: Is Calista’s father Denver or Rome? And will one of Lake Starlight’s most notorious bachelors be hooked into the life of a family man? Or will he runs out of fear?
At first, you may think it’s just another romantic comedy, with funny scenes and some a little cheeky. But the authors go further. The romance between the protagonists is born improbably, especially for two people so emotionally fragile, albeit in different ways.
They seem normal in society. Ordinary people. And few or almost no one imagines the scars they carry with them, which form a beautiful puzzle, of crooked pieces but which fit so perfectly.
He has difficulty recognizing that he loves her. She has difficulty believing in this love. Until an unexpected situation and a secret put this couple at a crossroads. Is this the end of the newest family of Lake Starlight?
A light and tender book, able to make you laugh, reflect and warm your heart.

Piper Rayne has been a favorite of mine since they first hooked up. I fell in love with the comedy, the love and the genuine ability to write so eloquently. This story was quite a favorite of mine. I love unplanned pregnancy love stories and they didn’t fail is here. I loved the connection between Harley & Rome, the chemistry, the outright love Rome shows Calisata almost instantly.
Piper Rayne did it again in this magical timepiece of forever Afters even when you have no clue.
5 STARS
Loved it
This was such a great story. This book will grab you from the beginning. Such a sweet story that this book give you lots of feels. As always Piper Rayne wrote another amazing story.
I absolutely love this series! Piper Rayne has done it again. Laughing until I cry, crying until I laugh. This book has it all! Surprise, you have a baby, but who is the daddy? Twins Rome and Denver are the possible culprits, but when the truth is revealed, watch out! This baby daddy wants to take over the world, and be the daddy that this little one deserves, and then try to figure out how to get the baby momma to love him back!
Filled with the crazy antics that Piper Rayne is known for, this is a ‘cannot put it down’ book!!
I swear Piper Rayne gets writing this amazing books and making it harder and harder for me to pick which one is actually my favorite!! I keep saying I think this last one is but I honestly believe that they all are and I just can’t pick or that the one I’m reading at the moment is until the next one or whatever they all are I’m just loving the one I’m on at the moment the most because it’s the one that’s freshest in my mind. Lol I know I sound crazy but I love their books and with this one I can’t give any kind of hints about at all. But I can tell you that it is so freakin awesome that you definitely need to read it. And 5 stars isn’t enough to cover this book at all!!! And I can’t wait for the next one. And I am loving the Bailey’s so hard core it’s not even funny!!! Piper and Rayne can write nothing bad I truly believe that. I highly highly recommend this book!!! – By Tina
With each book, you dive into more of not only the Bailey character the book is focused on, but it invites you to learn more about the entire family. It’s like a family reunion that you never want to leave. This book still puts a smile on my face every time I think about it!
They did it again! I love this series and I adore the authors!
I love a good Surprise pregnancy/one-night stand book and this is for sure going up there with some of my favorites in this trope.
This book is filled with humor, love, a loud family who don’t know when to mind their own business, a Surprise pregnancy, a little drama and a lot of fun. What more can you ask of a good book?
This is a Bailey’s books so of course it is good they don’t even have to have a love story in the book as long as the family is in there I am game.
As to not make any spoilers I will do a review with no names and I will call them the Hero and Heroine.
I loved the heroine from the start of the book. This woman is a fighter, she has a huge heart and all her love goes to her daughter. She is extremely protective of her daughter and is a total mama bear. But as she slowly starts to trust the Hero and the other people in town she starts to grow, you can see her bloom and I only end up loving her, even more, she deserves all the loves she can get.
What do you do when you just got told you have a daughter and you can’t remember her mom? Well, our Hero started drinking! But when he got over the chock (and got sober) he finally meets his daughter and her mom. It isn’t as easy to get close to them as he thought but when he makes a deal with the Heroine for her to stay a little so he can get to know his daughter he is over the moon. But what does he do when he starts wanting to get to know her mom too. How does he convince them to stay?
The hero is amazing, I adore him. He is such a fun, free person and everyone loves him. When he finally loves something or someone he loves with all he has and it is so beautiful. I loved to see him with his daughter and the Heroine. Plus it doesn’t hurt that this many is insanely hot and is really dirty in the good kinda way if you know what I mean. The chemistry in this book is crazy wild.
So are you looking for a fun, easy read with some crazy people, a huge of family, some sexy time and so much more this is your book.
If you have been following the adventures of the Bailey family, you know that there is always a lot going on. So when one of the spirited twin boys of the family is faced with a former one night stand, and is told he is the father of a baby girl, things get even more exciting for this close-knit family!
Without divulging the identity of the Bailey twin who is shocked with news that he is a father, I can say without a doubt that you will fall head over heels for him as he steps up to the plate and embraces his new responsibilities as a family man.
New comer to the Lake Starlight community, Harely is not only a caring mother willing to do anything for her baby girl, but she is a survivor and a character that I adored from the minute I got to know her. With quick wits, a strong will, and tenacity in spades, she fits right in with the Bailey clan.
As Harely and the unnamed Baby Daddy begin to parent their adorable little girl, the Bailey’s and Lake Starlight alike begin to rally around the two parents to help out – after all it takes a village.
With laugh out loud moments, sizzling chemistry, and endearingly touching moments that will stay with the reader long after the book is over, this has been one of my favorite titles from Piper Rayne. So if you are looking to stay in with a book for a night, take this one to bed with you!
As Always, Happy Reading!
“5/5 Beaming Brains!” – Lit-Up My Mind
Birth of a Baby Daddy is the first of this series that I have read, and I love it! Besides Denver, Rome, Harley and Calista, I found all of the Baileys very entertaining. Loved reading this story and look forward to reading the other books in the series.
Harley arrives in Lake Starlight in search of her baby daddy and what she finds is the fabulous Bailey family, a gossipy nosy town, a B&B hostess who behaves like a mother and the fantastic Lake Starlight Buzz Wheel.
A one night stand two years ago resulted in precious baby girl Calista. Harley needs her baby’s daddy DNA for medical reasons but she didn’t bargain for the instant connection, the outpouring of love from all Calista’s aunts and uncles and the their friends. Also, the baby daddy falls in love with his baby girl and wants to be in her life, and convinces Harley to give him a chance to connect with his baby.
What follows is a darling story of a woman who moved from one foster home to another, who now finds an unexpected family that receives her with open arms, and finds her baby girl smothered in the love and acceptance she never had. Her heart opens wide, her love for her little girl makes her give this town and this family a chance, and she herself finds the chance to fulfill her educational dreams. The baby daddy was a happy single man, and now finds himself responsible for a little person. He embraces his responsibility with some insecurity but with lots of joy.
We have fun with the rowdy Bailey clan making fun at each other, playing pranks, loving and worrying and meddling and being annoying. There’s interference, emergencies, misunderstandings, sexy times and a whole lot of fun and entertaining in this endearing story.
The Baileys are a different series… They are a big family that lost the parents too young and each one carry with them their own grief and cope system. In this book we get to know Rome, who is a chef, and his love interest and baby mamma.
The book is full of witty remarks but overall is a story about growth and how to love even if it is backwards. They way these two get to know each other (again) and assume their own insecurities and faults. They communicate and trust each other even when they do not trust themselves. Apart from Grandma Dory, the book is very melancholic, but in a good way, since it shows two 25-year old characters growing up and having an actual relationship in which they connect – and not just because they have a child together.
It is a very good book that you will love it! Maybe the best of the series so far!
