Richard VanRyan can add another line to his resume—Daddy. How does he handle the new addition to his life?The Baby Clause is a short continuation of Richard and Katy’s story, containing humorous glimpses into his life as a father, and how his world has changed. A must read for all fans of The Contract!Contains bonus material.
Richard has had his heart stolen. Not just once by twice. When Gracie was born she was instantly a daddy’s girl. He loved Katy and Gracie so much. When Katy was sick Gracie went to work with Richard. She made it possible to help get the contract. Richard showed him he was a family man. This impressed the client. Funny how a man who said he didn’t believe in love and never wanted children. Or that he’d be a bad daddy.
I loved this fun, swoony, heartwarming look at Richard as he becomes a daddy. Oh how the mighty have fallen and he wouldn’t change a thing about it! I promise there isn’t a moment here that you won’t be in ovary overload. And the imagery is perfection as this author lays Richard and Katy out for us to see them together as parents. But never fear that the steamy times are less, Richard is Richard after all, and Katy wants her man.
Definitely a must read for everyone who enjoyed The Contract.
Nothing better to see than a nasty tiger who can change his stripes. When we first met Richard in The Contract, we all wanted to hate him. He was down right awful to everyone especially poor Katy. Now Melanie Moreland has provided us with a rare glimpse into the world of a former “Dick” as he becomes a “Dad”. It is humorous and heart warming. The best part is that the proceeds from this novella go to charity.
Adorable
Book 2 in The Contracts series, I gave this a re read this in prep for book 3. I loved the original story so I was eager to follow up with Richard and Katy.
Sweet, funny and touching, I adored both Richard as a father and this wonderful short story. 5 stars

A quick hour read. I loved very much and it was quite entertaining. It’s part of another story, The Contract. It’s about the couple Richard and Katy starting there family. I will be picking it up to read soon. I highly recommend this story.
Lovely little novella to add on to the Contract (you must read that first!)
opening with a hilarious scene showing the frantic dad to be rushing to the hospital for the impending birth, followed by lots of ovary exploding sweet moments of daddy/daughter time.
A quick, sweet read to show us how far Katy and Richard have come!
The Baby Clause is a short, sweet and quick read. It’s a little peek into Richard and Katy’s life after ‘The Contract’.
“Daddy. A title I never thought would belong to me. A swell of sentiment made my throat thick. I reached out and grasped Katy’s hand, needing her touch. “I’ll be the best daddy I can be.”
I loved reading more about my favorite reformed jerk! There is a lot of emotion jam packed into this short story.
“I tried not to be an ass too much of the time, although Katy liked to remind me it was deeply ingrained in my psyche.”
The really cute sweet story will make you smile and feel good. And as a portion of the sales goes to charity, just purchasing this novella can make you smile and feel good!
“The cold-hearted man I first knew was gone and replaced by this protector who would do anything to care for his child. To care for me.”
I love reading how such a little being can melt the hardest of hearts. Richard as a daddy is even more swoon-worthy!
