Review: I have to say, I really enjoyed His Miracle Baby, by Kate Walker.

It is Morgan and Ellie's story, the tale of why young Ellie walked out on their passionate affair without a word, and why Morgan is drawn to seek her out. And whose is the baby he finds her with...

One of Kate's trademark strong, vibrant, passionate heroes, Morgan yet has a depth that escapes many writers of short contemporary romance. Ellie is vulnerable and yet resilient, easily engaging the sympathy of the reader, even without the able assistance of the baby Rosie, accurately described as, "this little charmer..."

I think it was the portrayal of Rosie that most impressed me about this book. Too often the baby in a romance is little more than a cipher, a plot device, consigned to the background too frequently to really connect with the reader. Kate manages to make Rosie a real person with character and depth, a remarkable achievement!

The story is gut-wrenchingly moving, yet stops short of pathos. The sexual tension is palpable, but always supported by heartfelt emotion.

Why is Morgan adamant he won't have children? Why did Ellie keep baby Rosie a secret? Read his Miracle Baby and you'll find out. What's more, you'll enjoy the journey.

And you WILL cry...

Review: She's done it again!!! I loved "His Miracle Baby" by Kate Walker. I was hanging on till the very end, waiting to see how the story finished. I love the way Ms Walker gave an identity to the child in this book. The love scenes....hot, hot, hot! You could feel the emotion, the turmoil, and love. Give me a Kate Walker book anyday of the week and I will be truly happy and content. Terrific book, fantastic writing! Not a lot of excess garbage to have to keep up with or sift thru to get to the heart of the story. I highly reccommend this book and any other book Kate Walker might write or have written.

Summary: His Miracle Baby Which He doesn¿t Deserve
Review: When Ellie Thornton and Morgan Stafford were an item he made it perfectly clear that he didn't want any children. So when Ellie found herself pregnant, she made up a lover, split with Morgan, moved to the country, had her baby and found a nice life with her grandmother, renting out cottages and that's where this story should have ended.

But Morgan comes back into her life. Or should I say forces his way back into it. Because as far as some men are concerned, woman are nothing more than items to pleasure themselves with and if Ms. Walker wanted Morgan to be anything more, than that she shouldn't have written about him in such a way that I gave up on this one about two-thirds of the way through.

A note here: None of the Harlequin Dreamers like stories about abusive men and just in case you don't know it, you can be abusive just by using your mouth. Maybe Morgan shapes up by the end of the book, but you know what, I just didn't care. It's a shame too, because I've been known to really like Ms. Walker's work. Only two stars.
