An amazing book that captured me from beginning to end. Roman and Beatrice met at a Halloween party where she gave him her virginity and he gave her a baby. One he didn't know about until he goes looking for the girl that he can't get out of his head. How will Roman react when he finds out Beatrice has kept his baby girl from him? Will these main characters get a second chance at love? RR Banks is a great story teller and you won't be able to put this one down once you start. I voluntarily read and reviewed Accidental Daddy as an ARC

Accidental Daddy is a funny, sweet, steamy and an all around good story. It’s a second chance, secret baby themed must read. It’s so entertaining and very enjoyable. It will have you hooked from the first page. R.R. Banks has such a way of writing that you feel a part of the story and the characters within. The characters are so easy to relate to and their chemistry is very well shown within the pages of the book. If your a fan of this author or genre, then I highly recommend this book.

This story has Beatrice attending her roommates Halloween Party. She meets a man with a mask that says Trick or Treat, and the two end up having a night of passion. The next morning she leaves a note to meet next year at the Halloween Party. Roman went to his cousins party and met Beatrice and only planned on a one night stand and nothing permanent. The next morning he wanted to see her but she was gone with no name and just the note to see each other next Party. She has moved back home to help her grandfather, her only living relative, to help with his pumpkin farm that has been in the family for generations. After being home for a month she found out that she’d had a treat at the party but now had a trick, she was pregnant. She helps and had the baby and misses the Halloween Party the next year. Roman has been waiting all year to see her but she’s not there. His cousin has her name and her home town so he goes to find her. He has trouble with her name and finds she goes by Bitsy, and the shock that she has a baby that looks a lot like him. Now he has to win her grandfather over and try and convince Bitsy that he wants her and the baby, will he convince her. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

After a particularly wild Halloween party, Beatrice Galloway returns to her childhood home to check on her grandfather, Benson. That is when she learns he wants to sell his farm and retire but Beatrice (or "Bea, B, Bitsy depending on who is talking) wants him to stay in the home where she grew up and in the one place she knows she can call home. They decide to give it a year and see if she can turn his finances and the farm around...little did she know, more than the farm was about to undergo a renovation.

Fast forward a year and Roman Renshaw returns to visit his cousin Nia and to see the beautiful woman Bea ... the woman who captivated him just one year earlier at Nia's Haloween party. Bea had left Roman a cryptic note telling him she would see him in one year. When he learned she returned home, he made it a priority to find her. An extensive search finally led him to her and a new female...his daughter, Lorelei who is fast approaching her first birthday - imagine his surprise!

There is a lot going on in the story. Bea is shocked and reluctant to let Roman into her life, Grampa is not happy with Roman's sudden appearance, and to say the town's people are a little strange is an understatement - that's when Roman realizes he has his work cut out for him. There are some heartwarming moments, plenty of snickers and of course some heat between Bea and Roman...and a little mystery to solve.

I received a reader copy in exchange for an honest review. It is a delightful story filled with plenty of twists and turns and lots of emotion. The story will entertain and hopefully bring a little joy into your world.

Favorite excerpt from the book: "I walked over to Lorelei and kissed her, whispering promises into the softness of her hair that I would never leave her the way that my mother had left me, and that I would do anything and everything for her. She looked up at me and smiled. I knew that she had no idea what I was saying to her, but I hoped that somehow the words would find their way into her heart where they would wait until my daughter needed them the most, and then come back to her memory."

What a terrific book. Accidental Daddy checks every box for a great romance read. These are strong characters and one beautiful baby girl. I wonder if Nia will get her own book? R.R. Banks sure knows how to keep readers interested/guessing. There are so many things to love about Whiskey Hollow; even Coy! I thought this read was perfectly written and I genuinely look forward to the next release.

I voluntarily requested an advanced reader's copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion. Trust in the fact that from beginning to end, you will be just as absorbed in the story as I was. There is nothing NOT to love about an R.R. Banks book. I highly recommend Accidental Daddy or any book published by this author.

This was a beautifully sexy read, and it totally put me into the Halloween spirit! It is the perfect blend of alpha male/strong female that I have come to love in all of Mr. Banks stories. It also has the perfect blend of heat and emotional feels. Some parts left me breathless, while others left me panting. I loved the small town setting and characters, the holiday theme, and the brilliantly written angst of the relationship between Roman and Bitsy. This was a wonderful romance and I highly recommend it!

Cute, funny, sexy sweet, and naaasssty good, this latest book by author R.R. Banks had me feeling all gooey inside from the very first page to the last! It's a tongue in cheek and laugh out loud romp through the life of Beatrice, a quirky, strange young woman who always sees the odd and weird side of every situation she gets herself into.

Beatrice?? and her roommate, Nia are putting on a sexy Halloween costume party in order to try to snag some eligible rich men. Their choices of costumes have to be scanty and sexy, but not slutty. It's a fine line, and Nia is determined to push Beatrice? across it. Beatrice ??won't wear the fur covered thong and bra that Nia is glueing together.
So, they go shopping.
The night of the party, Beatrice?? still ends up looking like a streetwalker?, but a mask helps her overcome her inhibitions, as well as scarfing down a bunch of drinks???. She ends up being carried off to a hotel by a tall, jacked? and shirtless man. No names, they are just dtf all ?night.
Beatrice was a virgin, but I guess that's history now......
YEHAW! Ride em Bareback?, Cowgirl!?????

Great book! It's the most fun reading I've had in quite a while! You. Need. To. Read. This. Book.

" I received a complimentary copy of this book and have volunteered to leave a review."
Thirty-six chapters full of suspense. Thirty-six chapters to fulfil both your imagination and curiosity of what might happen next. The story starts with the best omen to be interesting and enjoyable. Two very good friends and roommates, Beatrice and Nia are in the middle of organizing a Halloween party at Nia's house. Their witty dialogs and teasing are all over the place, unstoppable and hilarious, while they are going through all the details of it.
In order to move the story closer to what the title says, many things happened too fast. Though, I have to say that ,there were some thoughtful family scenes, which held a serious meaning for the continue of the story. Beatrice left her roomies and went back to her home town, keeping her pregnancy a secret. The revelation of the secret came and went (I won't say a thing, my mouth is closed) and that's when the story twists and everything after that didn't seem to be so relevant with the title anymore. The plot had started to change into something more interesting and riveting, something not so close to the title anymore. Something more close to what the Halloween as a celebration or as a family tradition has been.
I loved reading Accidental Daddy! It is definitely different from what I have read so far. The mixed book genres, romance, suspense, action, mystery, a bit of thriller, all of these kept my interesting alive and felt pleased from the results. (Did I say about the humorous dialogs?) The story never dulled, on the contrary it was fast paced and consuming, which I really didn't want it to end so soon. After I finished, you know, I was in high need of little more action from Beatrice's and Roman's part. ...just a thought to keep in mind.

After meeting at Roman’s cousin’s Halloween party Beatrice and Roman have a one night stand. She leaves in the morning promising to meet him again at next year’s party. They don’t even know each other’s names.

After a year of anticipation, Roman goes to the party but Beatrice is nowhere to be found. When he realizes Beatrice was his cousin’s roommate, he gleans what little information she has about her whereabouts and goes on the hunt for her, he has to see her just one more time. Little does he know that their one night produced a little dividend.

Meet the unique residents of Whiskey Hollow. Read the Holler Holler, and get to know this quirky little town while Beatrice and Roman try to save the family farm.

What a great book to come out before Halloween!!! Perfect timing. I loved the romance between Bitsy and Roman. They had one night together at Nia's annual Halloween Party. Benson Bitsy's grandfather was a character. Nia was Romans cousin and Bitsy's best friend. Bitsy trying to save her grandfather's farm was why she went back home. She did not see Roman for over a year. When he came looking for her, he found out he was a father. But the story plot was just not about the romance but it turned into how they could make the farm profitable so that Benson would not have to sell it. All this was happening around Halloween {hint hint} I had to chuckle often it was funny. I enjoyed reading this book.

Accidental Daddy by R.R. Banks is just plain outstanding. This is a first time read for me from R.R. Banks and will not be my last. It has a little bit of everything, including sweet moments, some hot sexy parts, suspense, mystery and some good twist and turns.

I loved the chemistry between Beatrice and Roman. It was so palpable even through the pages. The secondary characters were just hysterical and kept everything light hearted and funny. Accidental Daddy is a book that you need to one-click!!

I just love "seeing" a man write good romance books like this one. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and was glad it wasn't full of sex. I have to be honest I skipped over the two scary stories. Its almost 2am and I need to be able to sleep!!! I will read them in the morning. This book got my attention and kept it. This book had romance just a few sex scenes and the right amount of suspense. I didn't want it to end I wanted to know about his relationship with his dad. If it got better or if it will just be his mom and grands coming to stay out there. I just want to know so much I know its just a book but I have so many unanswered questions. I really hope Nia gets a book it would be interesting to see how her life turned out.

Accidental Daddy is a beautiful love story. It's full of unconditional love based on a shared past and experience, one that has broken their hearts but that only themselves can mend, and subsequently heal each other.

Accidental Daddy is Bitsy and Roman's journey through life, love but most importantly to each other.You will particularly like how strong they evolved to be and how they remained true to each other. So many factors could have ruined their relationship but they fought with all their might and endured a lot for a relationship that blossomed into a fairytale kind of love.

Pick up your copy today. You will hate yourself if you don't.

This was not the usual Rich Man, Poor Girl story. When Bitsy found herself pregnant, she went home to the family farm, where she worked with her grandfather to save the farm and care for her child. The father of the child found her after a year and came to help and support the baby. He came up with the idea of building a corn maze and setting up a "haunt" for Halloween. There was a HEA and no violence.

Bitsy and Roman have such amazing chemistry even when they first meet without knowing each other and with masks on. They go to his house and have a wild and passionate night and in the morning she leaves him a note telling him she will see him the same time next year! However, she hightails it out of town and back to her granddaddy who needs help on the farm. Well... she needs help too-she is pregnant! He finds out where she is about a year and half after they meet and tracks her down and sparks fly all over again, especially when he is introduced to his daughter! This book is so well written and it had me hooked from page one to the end. I read this book as an ARC and this is my honest review.

I volunteered to reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book. I started this book on my way out of town to work and go to a wedding. Needless to say I was late to everything. I had a hard time putting this book down to do anything. You can't help but fall in love with Bitsy. She is a good girl who wants the best for her child. But I think the best is how much Roman wants to find the girl he met one Halloween. And when he finds her and realizes she had his child, he immediately steps up and wants to be a better father to her than his father was to him. I loved the hot chemistry and interaction in this book. I also loved the backwards country description which I found.

Accidental daddy
This is a great story for Halloween season! Roman and Bitsy started out strangers with one Hot night together that lead to both of them wanting more but they didn’t even know one another’s names a year goes by when they are to meet again at another Halloween party when she doesn’t show. He hunts her down and you’ll have to read the book to find out what the reason is for her not showing up and how Roman wiggles his way into her life. I was a get storyline. I just wish there would have been more. But it was left with a few unanswered questions that hopefully will be in a book following this one. I am voluntarily leaving my review after reading this arc.

A really enjoyable read, the story was really well done it wasn’t just a sexy romp it had so much more. I really felt for both of them the Halloween bit was fun too especially at this time with Halloween just a week away. The author has given us a really good story with masses of steamy chemistry. The heat level was hot! This book is so worth reading, I personally read it in one sitting.

Wonderdul Halloween romance about Bea, pulled out of her comfort zone by her best friend Nia for a sexy Halloween party, and Nias cousin Roman. They meet, attraction is intense, she disappears. This is the most basic version of the blurb. He chases his HEA to her small town and finds he's a dad.

This was a really great read that centers around two people working on a relationship, learn to be parents together, and survive Halloween on a farm! ❤ Roman was endearing on how dedicated to finding his mystery girl and seeking out his HEA especially after finding out he's a dad. This is my honest review of a voluntarily read ARC from the author.

Who' s ready for Halloween? Bitsy and Roman had a one night stand at a Halloween party. She leaves before he awakes, but not before leaving a note to meet again next year. Roman has become obessed with his mystery woman and is upset when she doesn't show the next year. When his cousin gives him a lead, he follows it and finds Bitsy. He wasn't expecting what he found: Bitsy had given him a daughter he knew nothing about. Bitsy plays tough and tries to get rid of him, but Roman knows his girls are worth fighting for. While they try to save her family farm, will Bitsy learn to trust Roman? Will he deserve her trust? Will they live happily ever after?

Wow what a hot delicious book! Bitsy is from farm country, in the city going to school. Her roommate Nan, has a Halloween Party every year. She talks Bitsy into going. She also talks her cousin Roman to come. Bitsy and Roman end up going back to his hotel for some hot steamy sex. She disappears by morning, either one knowing who they were with. Bitsy leaves a note, see you next year, same time. Roman comes back but Bitsy doesn't. He has no idea how to find her. Will he find her? Why did she run. What an amazing story! Roman is a billionaire, and Bitsy a farm girl. Loved the book! I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Banks did an astonishing job creating this story! Its full of mystery, suspense and hot intense sex - with a creepy halloween tale!! There's enough twist and turns at every corner, that it will leave you anxiously sitting at the edge of your sit waiting to see how it ends! And the romance is off the charts! The chemistry between Bitsy and Roman is crazy good. They both live two different lives, and although they both tried to deny their feelings for one another, they know deep down they are meant too be. I highly recommend this book, you won't regret reading or getting it.

This is a beautiful tale of love. I was expecting another mushy story with sex on every page, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's an intimate love story with an actual plot. It’s a sweet tale with a few surprises. The surprises kind of pop out at you from left field with no warning at all and some parts of the story are a bit slow, but overall I liked the read. It was a quick and smooth read. It’s an excellent book for a day at the beach or trip.  

Overall, Accidental Daddy: A Billionaire’s Baby Romance is a huge 3-star rating from me.

The first book had potential but took a nose dive towards boring. They met at a Halloween party had a one night stand with the H asking to meet back again next year which I was expecting but this book went in a different direction did I miss something what happened to the H dad. The second book ugh! Who wants to read about both the H and h having descriptive sex with other people and the H had sex with her ex friend after he ran into h... the H was a dog/pig whatever. For some reason reading this I had a feeling this was a male author.

I really liked the premise of this story: young, impressionable, insecure girl meets masked man at a Halloween party, loses her V-card to the handsome stranger, runs away the next morning, discovers a "surprise" in her trick-or-treat bag, and tries to help save her family's business. Wow!! Beatrice meets Roman at a Halloween party where one decision irrevocably changes her life. An unplanned pregnancy is disconcerting, but she uses this as a reason to return to her hometown and help her grandfather save the family's pumpkin farm. This is the story of how a shy, insecure girl lacking confidence develops into a strong, determined woman and how the philandering, playboy billionaire realizes that what is truly important is the family he never knew he had. R.R.'s writing just keeps getting better and better! He is on my short list on "one-click" authors. He grabbed my attention from the very first page, taking me on journey filled with twists, turns, angst, volcanic sex, and ultimately, love. Discover how Beatrice and Roman find their way to each other in this sweet, steamy read.

No cliffhanger and guaranteed HEA with some hot scenes!

Beatrice meets Roman at her roommate's annual Halloween party. They both have masks and don't exchange names. This book seems to then take an unexpected turn when Roman eventually tracks B down to her tiny hometown about a year and a half later. He is surprised to discover he is also a dad! The rest of the story is good fun as Roman tries to get Beatrice to open up and Beatrice tries to find a way to save her pumpkin farm. Lots of interesting local characters here as well.

RR Banks manages to impress me once again. He has the unique ability to write interesting stories that are at the same time sweet romances too. This book is no exception. The characters are all well developed and kept my interest throughout the book. I love how the Roman uses his relationship with his father to shape how he plans to be a father. And I love the fact that he is not giving up on Beatrice no matter what. This story has a bunch of great elements that all flow together nicely. Again, Mr. Banks has talent. I do recommend you one-click this one and get to reading. You won't be sorry.

Such a great Halloween read! The beginning felt a little all over the place but the more I read the more I couldn't put it down. Mr. Banks' attention for detail is what makes him a favorite of mine. The way he hooks you in, you think that the story will go one way and then he throws you off. Roman and Bitsy were such a wonderful couple. I loved that they got their HEA but there were a few things that kept throwing me off. All together it was a good read.

I didn’t like the book Accidental Daddy, there was so much detail that it bogged the story down. I skimmed through the beginning only to have it become more of a Halloween story. Skimmed through that. I did like the second book Major O that story was well done. I didn’t read Her Man the third book included in this book.

Man this was an interesting plot. I received as an arc with a request to do a review. It is amazing that society can still fall for the husband saying he wasn't abusive. RR banks nails many society issues within this with well thought story lines. Age difference, does it really matter? Religious or not one can still find love. The author also nails how society is so quick to judge based on what the media says or portrays people as. Love the story line and the characters.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. Beatrice and Roman meet at a Halloween party. They have an intense one night stand where they do not exchange personal information and agree to meet up again in 1 year. Beatrice's night of passion is not without a surprise...9 months later. When Beatrice doesn't show as planned, Roman tracks her down and finds out her secret. These two have loads of chemistry. The story is great with twists and turns and a good supporting cast.

This book is great; centered around Halloween and a great love story and peppered with some old family secrets. I couldn't put this book down. I hope R. R. Banks follows this book with one that closes the loop of Whiskey Hollow and the new inhabitants that are building on its charm.

I only gave it 4 stars because the editors didn't do their job. There are enough missing words, misspelled words, and extra words to make them noticeable and annoying.

I voluntarily reviewed and ARC of this book for an honest review. What a great read. I loved it from beginning to end. Strong main characters. Beatrice, nicked name Bitsy, and Roman, her roommates cousin and billionaire. It started one Halloween party. Neither one of them knowing the other. A one night stand that lead to a nice surprise. A year and a half later they meet up again. This time Roman stays the course. R. R. Banks puts her heart into her stories.

Accidental Daddy is the story of two people who would probably have never met if there wasn't a Halloween party where things went wrong. Should these people end up together? At the beginning of the story I would have said no way but the author gives the couple time (lots of time) to grow, mature and get to know each other. At the end of the story I give the couple a hearty maybe as far as if they should be together.

Beatrice is a young woman who has moved away from the small town where she grew up to go to college. At the start of the story she is hanging out with her friend and trying to get out of attending a Halloween party. Beatrice has no backbone. And she's a virgin. Enter the ex-boyfriend who broke her heart! He is depicted as a bad boy to the core. (Honestly, I wanted to know his story but the reader doesn't get any of it.) Roman is a super successful businessman who is "estranged" from his family (see my rant below). He comes home to attend a family reunion and anniversary party and ends up at his niece's Halloween party. The ex-boyfriend shows up at the Halloween party, bad things happen, Beatrice drinks alcohol and Roman ends up taking her back to his hotel room (Why? I don't know. Her room was just down the hall in the house where the party was but ok.) Beatrice does the sneaky walk of shame the next morning. Then she goes back to her hometown because she fears her grandfather is sick. But Beatrice also goes home because she suspects she's knocked up....oh my!

Now, when Roman tracks Beatrice (who we shall now call Bitsy) down, he's irked about her keeping the baby a secret. Of course, they didn't know each other's names, where they lived or their sexual histories! Good ole Bitsy doesn't say, hey ding dong, why didn't you use a damn condom! I was a virgin so I had no experience to go on. Nope. And quite a bit of time has passed. Like a full year! Does Roman ever ask Bitsy if she had insurance to have the baby? He's a freaking millionaire! He should probably cover the expenses. Just saying.

Anyway, Bitsy is trying to save her family farm. Finally, the story of this couple getting to know each other. Um, sort of. They spend time together and they talk but I never felt like they really connected on anything...even the baby. But don't worry. By the end, Roman is totally capable of watching his daughter while Bitsy goes out to run errands. After months of being around the baby. Ok.

Did I mention that Bitsy's hometown of Whiskey Creek is full of fun activities and quirky characters? None of them really added to the story but at least they broke up the story a bit.

You know what annoyed me? This story is full of throw away details. For instance, why does Roman's father hate him so much? The family business? I don't get it! And Roman has all of these memories of his father never being there when he's a kid so you'd think Roman would have all sorts of mental issues. But everyone else in Roman's family seems so normal and so tight with each other that maybe that's why Roman is so normal and well adjusted? And one more thing about Roman! He's a very rich man. He got rich by building a very successful business all over the world. He's spent 20 years building his business but BOOM he suddenly doesn't have any responsibilities and can take a long break to spend time with the mother of his child. Um, that's not how business works. There's one brief mention that Roman had to travel and Bitsy missed him so much. There are other examples, but I'll stop there. I guess the bottom line is that Roman is an outline not a complete character. I think the elements were there, they just weren't utilized because Bitsy is the focus of the story.

This story isn't awful it's just incomplete. I liked that Bitsy and Roman end up designing a haunted Halloween farm to try to save Bitsy's family farm. It's a quirky solution. I was super happy when Roman mentioned that they needed to get to work on it because building something like that takes time....they gave themselves 4 to 8 weeks to do it (sigh....that makes me sad). Again, Roman is rich and could keep the farm going for a year in order to do things right. And Roman could have brought business to the quirky little town but whatever. Those are my thoughts on how this could have worked out.

I would recommend this story to anyone who likes billionaire romance (still not sure how Roman is a billionaire but whatever). If you like R.R. Banks stories, give this one a try. This story is told from 2 POV in first person.

Quotes:
"No one named Bea is allowed to dress as a bee," she said with all the authority of someone quoting a historic treaty. loc 50 (So I mentioned in the review that Beatrice has no backbone. She let's people call her Bea even though she hates it.)

Open-air malls were another evolution of modern society that bothered me. loc 171

Another great read by R.R. Banks. Accidental Daddy did not disappoint. They meet at a Halloween ? party & hook up! Beatrice makes a quick exist the next morning leaving a note for Roman. “See you next year.” When she doesn’t show up, Roman tracks her down & finds her with a baby girl that looks a lot like him. Will Roman be able to put together his HEA with Beatrice & his daughter, Lorelei?
I received an arc copy of this story for my honest review.
