Connie Bonner has spent her life working hard and following her passion, never too worried about how things will work out or where her life is headed. But after one unforgettable, passionate night with Brian O’Leary, her gorgeous former boss, her life has ground to a halt. Now, she’s pregnant. Facing the biggest responsibility of her life. Worse, Brian’s new girlfriend and soon-to-be fiancée is … is demanding Brian not be named the father and that Connie sign a non-disclosure agreement. But when Brian begins to help Connie prepare for the baby, she finds herself dreaming about not just their child but a family with the billionaire as well.
Brian is convinced that Connie’s pregnancy is just a small hiccup on his way to the perfect life he’s dreamed of since he was a poor kid on the wrong side of the tracks. He’s already amassed fortune, and has found the perfect, practical fiancée who comes with a major tech deal, putting his goal almost in reach. He has no room in his life for the always-cheerful Connie, but he finds himself more and more drawn to her despite his looming goal. She’s the opposite of everything he needs in life. But if that’s true, why is it so hard to resist her?
As the pregnancy progresses, Connie wants Brian to see that there’s more to life than making money, and that they’re meant to be a family. But with everything working against them and a baby on the way, time is running out for them to find their happily ever after.

THE BILLIONAIRE’S ACCIDENTAL BABY is the first instalment in Leslie North’s contemporary, adult BILLIONAIRES AND BABIES erotic, romance series. This is billionaire businessman Brian O’Leary, and developer Connie Bonner’s story line.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Brian and Connie) THE BILLIONAIRE’S ACCIDENTAL BABY follows in the wake of Connie Bonner’s firing from O Developments following an incident that lost the company a potential billion dollar investment. A one-night stand with her ex-boss, billionaire Brian O’Leary, found our heroine facing a pregnancy alone when she discovers our hero was now betrothed to someone else. What ensues is the tepid relationship between Brian and Connie as our couple battle their attraction to one another in spite of the change in Brian’s status, and the fall-out as Brian’s business arrangement spirals out of control.
Brian O’Leary’s engagement is more of a business arrangement than anything else but our hero wants nothing to do with being a father, and his new fiancé is even more reluctant to accept the inevitable. Connie is willing to raise the child on her own but an NDA contract forces our heroine to remain hidden in plain sight.
The relationship between Connie and Brian begins as employee and boss, then a one-night stand that results in a pregnancy that is about to upend everyone’s life. Unwilling to be a full-time father, Brian offers little support as our heroine struggles many times on her own. The $ex scenes are fast and furious but I never felt the connection or love.
THE BILLIONAIRE’S ACCIDENTAL BABY was a bit of a struggle for me: from the immature attitude of both the H/h, to the adolescent language including the use of ‘bone’ as a euphemism for $ex, I battled to see any redeeming qualities for everyone involved. A quick novella length read, the lack of character development, and rushed conflict resolution left me unfulfilled.
Connie is a developer for Brian’s company. Brian is working to be a billionaire but when Connie causes him to lose a contract, he fires her. When they have a one night stand, Connie ends up pregnant. Two months later she goes to tell him and he tells her about his girlfriend and their companies are merging. First they want her to give them the baby to raise but when she refuses, they agree to support her but no one is to know Brian is the father. But the more time he spends, the harder he falls. Will he man up and be a father or will he let money come before everything else?
Boss and employee love story. Connie didn’t make sense half the time. The dialogue felt forced at some places to me.

This was a really good read I just love a good accidental baby romance so this was perfect for me I really liked Connie she made me laugh and she was a great character but was constantly getting into trouble, she has been crushing on her boss Brian but ends up getting fired when she cost him a rich client. They later run into each other in a bar and end up spending the night together which results in her getting pregnant. This was a good read with enough twists and drama to keep me hooked
I give this a 3.5 but it won’t let me do 1/2 points.
The Billionaire’s Accidental Baby (Billionaires & Babies, #1) The Billionaire’s Accidental Baby was a quick read and had a little bit of everything for the reader. I liked Brian and Connie’s characters but for some reason I couldn’t connect with them. I liked the idea of the hot billionaire falling for the smart goth girl. It has a few moments where I was yelling becuase I thought it was going to go a way I didn’t like but I loved the ending and the epilogure. I have read other books by Leslie North and liked them better but I would still recomend this to those who want a quick read. I give this book 3 wine glasses.

This was such a sad book. I totally disliked Brian. He was more interested in the bottom line and getting into the billionaire league that he didn’t care who he hurt. Connie was a total different kind of person from Brian. She had a sense of humor and was funny BUT there is a time and place for such humor and with a person that your company is trying to get a contract with is not one of them. She had no sense of proper decorum for the work place.
I really didn’t feel any chemistry between these two especially since he was seeing someone else and had just become unofficially engaged prior to Connie making her pregnancy know. Also after their one night stand, Connie apparently left in the middle of the night. There was no explanation as to why.
There were several editing errors here. I had to re-read several passages to make sure I was understanding what the author was intending.
There is language here that is not appropriate for someone under 18 plus several sexual scenes.
This book is based around Brian [multi billionaire boss born on the wrong side of the tracks who is obsessed with having a ‘perfect’ life and wife] and Connie [who has a major crush on him and he gets her pregnant when he sacks her for losing a deal at work and they get drunk together at a pub]. At first, Connie was not the character of a woman in that position in a major company and just didn’t ring true but she did develop[ – thank goodness. Brian was too obsessed for my liking and completely blind to the fact that Connie cared deeply for him [and him her!] and that his soon to be wife was awful. This just is not the usual type of characters for Leslie North which are usually full of life, mature and ones that I genuinely root for them to get their HEA. Sorry this book was not for me as I actually wanted to give Brian a shake so he could see what was really right in front of him instead of his so called ‘perfect’ vision!…BUT, I look forward to her next book with enthusiasm.I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
The Billionaire’s Accidental Baby (Billionaires & Babies Book 1)i s about Connie, an overly friendly employee, and Brian, a multi millionaire. She loses an account for Brian and gets fired. Later, he shows up at the bar where she is drowning her sorrows. They end up having an unforgettable night, and two months later tells him she is pregnant. There’s much more, but you need to read the book to find out.

f you are looking for a book that has drama humor and a few twist
than this is definitely for you.
Right from the start I thought I had the plot pretty well worked out
but than the author through a bit of a twist into it.
Great plot with very strong chemistry between the characters.

This book is another of Leslie North’s successes. I love her books and don’t mind saying she is my most read author.
Connie is an employee of Brian’s company and ends up getting fired. As she is having a drink at a local bar he walks in and they end up having a few more drinks and ended up at his penthouse where they both let their fantacy’s about each other become a reality only better.
Two months later Connie turns up at Brian’s office and let’s him know he is going to be a father. He has made an agreement with another woman to merge their companies and get married as part of the merger so he tells Connie she will need to be part of the discussion as to how they will handle things related to the child.
Well the offers put on the table are not ok with Connie and actually they aren’t ok with Brian either but it takes him a while to realize what he actually wants and that is Connie in his life as well as his child.
This is a well written short story with an amazing HEA.
This book actually had me shaking my head at the determination and extent a man will go to to fulfill his dream even if it doesnt make him happy emotionally.
Brian is determined to hit the billion dollar mark and nothing and no one will stand in his way to achieving his dream.
After firing Connie for an ill timed remark that had him seeing his dream of billions crumbling and his potential investor dropping him he finds him self in a bar drinking his sorrows away with non other than……Connie!!!??
Two months later Brian thinks that it would be a good idea for his new girlfriend and him to merge their companies and get married as the merger would make him a billionaire…..finally……but of course Connie comes barreling back in his life to tell him that he is going to be a dad……..
How far will he go to make his a dream a reality?

Just ok for me.
It’s hard to like a book when you don’t like the heroine. Right off the bat Connie was an annoying airhead that doesn’t know when to shut up or to think before she says the weirdest things. Although, I loved that she kept comparing him to Prince Harry because that gave me a nice visual.
Overall it was alright. Just the typical whoops baby by a rich boss. There were too many time jumps without explanations of what went on in the meantime that tripped me up.
It’s a fast afternoon read to kill some time.

Connie is an awesome character. She is so unpredictablely honest and such an amazing woman. The way she handles her surprise baby is with dignity and grace but, also with a strength that comes from a woman who knows her own self worth.
Brian, on the other hand, is an insensative jerk that values money and power above all else. It takes a certain constitution to endure his cold demeanor. With that said, this is a story that lets you behind the curtain to watch Brian transform into a man who has found a meaning to life and it is all thanks to Connie. I recommend this story and it’s happy ending.
Brian has one goal, to become a multimillionaire company and when it is within his grasp, one of his employee, Connie, an overly friendly employee ruins it for him, he is furious. Connie is fired and heads to the nearest bar to drown her sorrows. Then who should enter the same bar and sit down 3 seats away from her, but Brian! As soon as the men sitting between them leave, he spots her and gives her a furious look. They end up drinking together and as the alcohol takes affect, end up at his penthouse. He still has his plan to reach his goal and an unexpected pregnancy wasn’t in it. He has a fiancée with a development company he wants to merge with as a business arrangement, but Connies pregnancy isn’t going to change his goals. This has a well written storyline and I loved Connies character. There were times when I wanted to smack Brian for his attitude and indifference to Connie. It was an emotional read ranging from hurt, disgust in Brian, and his fiancée was a real b#tch and deceitful too. I despised her! Brian finally starts to realize maybe there’s more to happiness than money.

This is the story of multi-millionaire, Brian, and his employee, Connie. Brian is on the cusp of becoming a billionaire if he can just land the deal he’s working on. Unfortunately, he loses the chance when Connie unknowingly insults the client. She is in turn fired and they end up drinking their troubles away in a bar later that evening. Of course, actions have consequences and even though protection is used, Connie becomes pregnant.
In turn, she goes to Brian to let him know he’s going to be a father. Being two months later, he has moved on with Felicia who has her company and they come up with the idea to be together and merge their businesses and get married. Their merger will help him obtain his much-coveted billionaire status. After Connie tells Brian of her pregnancy, the two of them discuss the future with Felicia and this is where I lost touch with the characters. Connie is given two choices: 1)she can give up the baby for a price and they will raise it as their own, Brian and Felicia 2)she can keep the baby and he will have nothing to do with the child; she’ll be completely on her own.
Honestly, I lost respect for Brian. I get he had a rough childhood, but he’s a multi-millionaire already. How could anyone turn down the chance to be with their child bc they have a fake commitment to someone who will make him a billionaire? A child shouldn’t be traded for any amount of money, but if you have multi-millions of dollars, and you put getting more money above your child? Not good at all.
Then I lost respect for Connie bc she seems to go along with the plan of keeping the child and only getting money for essentials such as health insurance. I will say I like that she is determined to keep her baby, but I felt like she should have been more vocal. First, I would told Felicia, girl, bye.
As the pregnancy progresses, it becomes apparent that Brian is torn. He keeps reverting to the old script of not being involved yet he goes with Connie to her appointments. This is where I started to get an inkling of maybe he cared more than he understood himself. I thought he was getting himself together and the two seemed like they were connecting especially after Brian sees Connie driving a moped. He freaks out and she lets him have it. They have amazing sex and I thought ok, this is where the story turns, but no, he goes and meets Felicia for dinner. If I were her, that would have been the end of any type of relationship with him except one through the courts.
Brian eventually sees the light, but its because of a threat to his company not bc he saw the light where Connie and his child were concerned. Yes, I think he cared for her in his own way, but obviously not enough. They finally get their HEA which was really sweet, but for me, it would have been too little too late. When he found out Connie was pregnant, he should have broken off his fake relationship. I’m not saying he and Connie should have immediately gotten together, but he should have focused his attention on his unborn child and if his feelings for Connie grew, then those could have been acted on with no hurt to anyone.
I’m not usually the cheating or safe book police, however, Brian’s outlook on money, the fake relationship, etc just didn’t do it for me. Because of this, I just couldn’t get on board with their wedding. I mean, I liked it. I thought it was sweet, but Brian isn’t Leslie North’s usual hero. At least not in my opinion.
I give The Billionaire’s Accidental Baby 3.5 stars. I have never given Leslie North’s books less than 4.5 and I feel badly about this rating, however, I want to be honest. Maybe it’s just me and other people will like it more than i did. As usual, I’m looking forward to the author’s other books. She is still one of my favorites.

An amazing read! It is beautifully written with a well-developed, consistent, and engaging plot. The storyline is intriguing, emotionally deep, funny, and witty; it flows smoothly and is so engrossing and consistent you will get to the end wanting more. The characters are likeable, strong, and balance each other perfectly. Strongly recommended – A MUST READ!!
