Lauren Blakely, she has never done me wrong. I adore every single one of her books. The Knocked Up Plan was something I was not expecting but I’ve got to say, in my eyes, this is her best work yet. Nicole is a single, professional woman whose biological clock is ticking. Loudly. She is looking for the perfect specimen to father her baby, no strings attached. Nicole just wants a donor and she thinks she’s found that in Ryder, her co-worker. He’s sweet, smart and his DNA would be top notch. Ryder IS the epitome of the perfect man. Sexy, smart, genuine, but he’s also a man burned by his ex-wife. He was completely blindsided by her and the surprises that came along with her secrets. Ryder just wants to put it all in the past and move on with his life. He enjoys his work and enjoys spending time with his co-worker, Nicole. When Ryder needs to take his radio show in a different direction, taking a woman out on a few dates seems to be the way to go. And who other than Nicole to be that perfect person to help save his career! She wants a baby, he wants a few dates to save his career. What could possibly go wrong?? Five amazing facts about The Knocked Up Plan… 1. Nicole and Ryder are magnificent together. This couple was everything!! 2. This book has all the emotions rolled into one..happiness, desire, hope, sadness and love. 3. Date night ideas!! I actually highlighted all the dates to show to my husband:) Thanks, Lauren! 4. The way Ryder sees the baby and Nicole? It is what every woman dreams of. And it’s perfection. 5. SEX. I’m sure if you have read a Lauren Blakely book, you know there is no need to wear panties because they are going to melt off anyway. This book was no exception. HOT! HOT! HOT! I was so impressed with the characters and how they were with each other. Ryder and Nicole were truly friends first before everything else came along and I enjoyed that aspect of their relationship. There were no games, no silliness, just straight forward talk and understanding. And at the end of the book when Ryder let Nicole know exactly how he really felt? It was THE best part of the book. Lauren Blakely hit a homerun with The Knocked Up Plan. This book was romantic, hilarious, sweet and sexy and I honestly cannot say enough about this book! 5+ stars all the way!!

Omg....I loved this book! And not just any regular-type love that I have for all of Lauren's books, but a wholehearted, all-encompassing, bona fide LOVE!! The Knocked Up Plan's title is 100% catchy, and the uniqueness of the story line keeps you intrigued the entire time. Factor in the incredible writing and a def-con swoon level of about a million, and this book is a trip to romance paradise! "And I know without a shadow of a doubt that I'm in love with the mother of my child." I literally got goosebumps from reading that line. A slow shiver ran through me, and I was a complete goner over the book! The romance and passion will no doubt get your heart racing, but the compassion, emotions, and insecurities hit your right in the feels when you least expect it. The character development, and comedic interactions and dialogue truly showcases The Knocked Up Plan's entertainment aspects. The Knocked Up Plan is a genuine and heartfelt, friends-to-lovers romance that will make you beg for more!

I'm rather critical when it comes to romance novels. I have only a select few that I would re-read and keep. "The Knocked Up Plan" is definitely on the list. It was fun, funny, romantic, sweet and sexy. I loved both characters. A definite recommended read.
