by
Day Leclaire
"I'm having your baby."With those words, Emma Worth changed Chase Larson's life forever.

There was just one thing that might keep him from making Emma his wife: their feuding families.

Not bad, not great. I never really got a feel for the heroine in this book. She seemed very "poor little rich girl" to me and not much else. She also seemed overly emotional to me, though I can cut her some slack in that regard since she is pregnant from the beginning. The hero was a little more interesting and likeable. I felt like the plot probably did more to set up the rest of the series than I usually like. The hero and heroine's journey to their HEA just didn't grab me. I suspect that is m...more
I quite liked this one. The hero is a nice honorable man. The heroine is in no way a wimp. The story is well written and the plot makes sense and is well developed. The emotions of the hero and heroine were believable. I see shades of other books to come but this is not just a big setup for future books. The characters that I suspect might have stories in future books all have a part to play in this one. All in all a very well written story.

After having a passionate affair weeks ago, Emma Worth and Chase Larson realize they are on opposite sides of a contentious business deal. Worse than that, Emma discovers that she's pregnant. Luckily the heat that originally brought them together is still there. But trying to make their romance last requires something more than overwhelming passion. At the very least, can they get their feuding families to get along.

Claimed: The Pregnant Heiress by Day Leclaire, is a typical category. Hero(H) and heroine(h) spent one night together, they meet again at some party where the H's stepbrother is buying h's father company. Sparks are still there, turns out h is preggers. Hero wants to marry her since he was illegitimate, heroine is not sure.
And there it goes.
And there it goes.
This is a great story. Doesn't start of with a lot of romance but when Emma and chase realise there's more then attraction between each sparks really fly. Chases brother Rafe starts a war with Emma father and takes over worth company. At the end of the book there's a short story about Rafe. It's a great look at what he was like younger.
A complex and emotional story, I really enjoyed seeing Chase and Emma grow together. Particularly with Emma helping Chase heal some wounds with his father and past. I'd give this a solid 3 Heart Review and say you would enjoy this book and it would be a fast read.
Continually misread this title as "the Day LeClaire Claimed the Pregnant Heiress", and was disappointed every time to find out that this was not, in fact, the case (or the title).
I usually stay away from books that involve babies. This wasn't all that bad. Well, considering she's pregnant and doesn't have the baby during the course of the story...
I thought this book was funny, sweet, and sexy....a perfect start to a new series in the SD line of harlequin books.
Miniseries: The Takeover
This caught my eye due to the author, whom I've read some previous works. Right now, all that I can say is that this story is a good start for the series. I can't wait to read them all!
