His Shock Baby

Billionaires of La Vega, Book 1

De: Holly Rayner

Narrado por: Meghan Kelly

They say La Vega is a billionaire’s playground; that’s all well and good, until you get caught up in their games.

I was sent to write a story on one of the city’s biggest beasts,

Now, I’m pregnant, and I’ve become the story!

It was supposed to be a simple assignment: profile the gorgeous ex-quarterback of the La Vega Vipers - who just so happens to be my own brother’s former rival - get my story, and get out. Of course it wasn’t that simple!

It didn’t take long to figure out that Jason Miller, the former player turned billionaire co-owner, was keeping something from me, and I went far, far beyond the call of duty in trying to get it out of him. I didn’t succeed, but I did walk away with an even bigger scandal brewing inside me, because I’m pregnant - with his baby!

The truth will come out, sooner or later; how am I going to convince him that this isn’t the scoop I was hoping for?!

Loved this story

It has a good plot, good characters, well written, the author pulled me in giving me a interesting listen. I enjoyed this, who doesn't like second changes. This was a lovely romance with a few twists and turns to make it interesting.

The narrator did a wonderful job really making you feel the emotion of each character as they go through some very hot times. The character voices are wonderful, you always know who is talking and what they are feeling. Her male and female voices are given with strength and character. I really liked how she showed emotions why they were bating back and forward. There are no repeating of words, no background noise, no volume changes. If breaks were taken I could not tell. This is one narrator I know I will enjoy listening to each time I pick up one of her new audios. I really look forward to listening to her voice.

Cute story with a happy ending

I thought the storyline was interesting. It had a few unexpected twists and turns which made it even better. I was expecting for Emma to be involved with the betrayal but that didn’t happen. I’m glad the woman’s friendship was left alone.
The narrator did an amazing job! Each character was given its own voice & personality.

Fantastic Story!

I definitely enjoyed listening to this audiobook. This book is well written and narrated. This is a intriguing storyline, with some suspense and romance.

The narrator does a fantastic job with the characters and the voices of each character making it easy to distinguish between the characters. I fell in love with this audiobook.

Heartwarming!

Holly has written an emotional story that will not let you put it down. It had some twists and turns that kept me on edge.
Meghan Kelly is a talented narrator! She can do both male and female characters with ease. She makes the story exciting and interesting. I loved it!

Great story and great narration

Audio Review
Holly Rayner is a new author to me and Meaghan Kelly is a new narrator so this was an exciting listen, I wasn’t sure what to expect but let me just say I will certainly be following both Ms Rayner and Ms Kelly from now on. I was drawn into the story and i could take my headphones off until I had heard the final line because I loved everywhere about Carman Fuentes and Jason Miller’s journey.
Carmen is writing a story on retired quarterback and now co owner of La Vega Vipers football team Jason Miller but whilst trying to give her the story she needs he also has secrets and that causes issues. Carmen is determined to get her story but as they get to know each other a friendship is formed and as time goes on that friendship turns to love but what will happen when they get a big surprise and will their relationship survive……
The story was entertaining, the characters easy to connect with and the narration was spot on. If you love slow burn romances look no further than His Shock Baby.

Just okay. Typical sports story

Just okay typical sports story. The narrator was not my favorite. I’ll be honest I had to fast forward through some of it to finish it.

Great start to the series!

Smart, capable and ready to work, investigative reporter, Carmen Fuentes takes the job of finding out who Jason Miller, retired quarterback for the La Vega Vipers. This mysterious billionaire does not give out details of his life, but Carmen is determined. Jason's whole life revolves around the football team and when sports betting becomes part of the package, he is not going to take it. The sport and team mean much more to him than making an easy buck. Carmen and Jason fall into an easy friendship and while the articles are doing well, there isn't much shock value to them. Until there is...and it's shocking! Holly Rayner gives us a slow burning romance with a hint of suspense, just enough to keep us on edge and interested! It's a fun listen and left me smiling.

Meghan Kelly brings this gem to life with her talent. She is an amazing story teller and her voices are spot on for each character! Her voices are easily distinguishable and I love her male voice!!! It is a listen you do not want to miss!

This is an enjoyable and entertaining romance novel, it is well written with interesting storylines that are captivating from start to end. The characters are likable, easy to relate and connect with, they easy to care about too.

She is an entertaining storyteller and her narration enhances the story to another level. Thanks you for another wonderful listen, it is always a pleasure to listen to your work.

Loved it - Great story and narration

Although I have listened to narrator Meghan Kelly, Holly Rayner is a new author to me. I was drawn into the story and the performance and listened to this one in almost one go. They say what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, but what about Cancun?

Carmen Fuentes is a reporter on assignment to write a story on retired La Vega Vipers quarterback and now co owner, Jason Miller. However Jason has secrets and is determined to keep them and complications quickly arise.

As Carmen and Jason get to know one another, a friendship develops. A ll that changes when a surprise rocks their relationship. Meghan Kelly uses a range of voices for her characters (doing a credible job with her male voices as well) which added to my listening pleasure.

This is a slow build relationship that was entertaining and had me invested from the first chapter leaving me with a smile on my face.

His Shock Baby

If you're in the mood for a 'short' captivating story this is the one.
This story will draw you in from the get-go and not let you go.
I always get giddy when there is a Hispanic character in a book I'm reading and this time was no different.
Carmen Fuentes wants to make it big in the journalism world and Jason Miller is her way in.
Their relationship is one that is built slowly but so satisfying.
Meghan Kelly is an amazing narrator!
