Loved It
This was a fake romance that changed course over time. Jameson was going out on tour for a farewell tour and Shelby was just called in to be the tour manager for them.
Shelby was all order and business and Jameson was trying to get the bad publicity off from him so they decided that it could help Jameson if he was in a relationship. Shelby was great for playing along until she and Jameson realized that this fake relationship was turning very real.
Fantastic short rock romance read that was a big page turner.

Boy band baby bump de Fern Fraser Parte de la serie Galentine’s Groupies
Argumento:
Shelby es una fanática con la misión de demostrar su valía. Jameson es un chico malo que busca la redención.
¿Aventura falsa o pase detrás del escenario para siempre?
Shelby
Me han ofrecido el trabajo de mi vida: ser el director de gira de la tan esperada reunión de Soul Obsession. La mujer que hay en mí está encantada de poder ejercitar mis músculos organizativos en una producción tan importante. Mi fan adolescente interior está chillando por estar de cerca y en persona con su banda de chicos favorita.
Nunca imaginé que terminaría saliendo falsamente con el rompecorazones Jameson Munroe. Tampoco esperaba que nuestra aventura escenificada pudiera convertirse en algo genuino. Cuando un presunto virus estomacal resulta ser un panecillo en el horno, mi ordenado plan de vida se adentra en un territorio desconocido.
Jameson
Esta gira de reunión es un esfuerzo de amor y odio. Los chicos y yo queremos tocar la música y agradecer a todos nuestros fans sin tener problemas y escándalos que nos sigan. Mantengo las cosas estrictamente profesionales: no hay fiestas detrás del escenario ni interacciones coquetas con los fans. Mi antigua reputación de playboy es un obstáculo que se resuelve fácilmente pretendiendo tener una relación amorosa y comprometida con la ordenada y formal Shelby. Estar cerca de ella me tranquiliza de maneras inesperadas. Cuando nuestras pasiones se nos escapan, acabamos con un embarazo sorpresa. Ahora, debemos navegar por el frenesí de los medios mientras nos hacemos la pregunta más difícil: ¿son reales nuestros sentimientos mutuos o estamos cayendo en la fantasía que creamos?
Mi humilde opinión:
Romance instantáneo, banda de rock, relación falsa, bebé sorpresa.
Me gustaron Jameson y Shelby, por separado y como pareja. Shelby era centrada y dedicada al trabajo, no se arrojó enseguida al cantante y lo mantuvo profesional hasta que se enamoró. Jameson era encantador y apasionado por la música y su banda. Fue bueno verlo enamorarse de alguien que en verdad lo apoya y quiere a la persona y no al cantante famoso. Se dio cuenta con Shelby de que hay cosas más importantes en la vida que la fama. Lo que no me gustó fue que en la escena del hotel él flirtea con la conserje delante de Shelby. En ese momento ya eran pareja, aunque estaban fingiendo, no respetó a Shelby y la verdad no me sentó bien esa situación delante de ella.
Es una historia corta así que aprecié que se sintiera como si ellos se dan tiempo para conocerse y que en esas citas y momentos juntos se estaban conociendo y enamorando.
El tema de la relación falsa me quedó flojo, otro cantante estaba acusando a Jameson de robarle canciones y la solución es ponerse de novio para que ya no lo vieran como el bad boy? No lo entendí.
Todo se solucionó sin dramas y el final fue lindo, sin embargo esperaba un epílogo más a futuro.

"...sometimes life throws us curveballs to lead us where we're meant to be."
Boy Band Baby Bump by Fern Fraser is part of the multi-author Galentine's Groupies series. I loved this story about Shelby Fitzgerald and Jameson Munroe. He is a very talented musician who wrote a lot of the songs for Soul Obsession. When they split up ten years ago he did his own record and tour but it was not as successful. So since then he has written music for other musicians, along with co-writing with others. He also has completed recording another solo album that will be released after the band completes this last tour, as they owed the record company one last album. Shelby is highly efficient, loves order, can organize anything and is successful in her job at Eclipse Entertainment Logistics. She is just about to take a long deserved vacation filled with bikinis, sun, sand and booze when she gets a call from her boss. There is an emergency which she is perfect for, stepping in as the logistics manager for a stadium tour across America. As it turns out the original tour manager for Soul Obsession had to leave part way through and they need someone fast. With the promise of a huge bonus and a huge feather in her cap for pulling it off Shelby puts away her bikinis and joins the tour. Shelby and Jameson are not looking for a relationship and as it turns out theirs is fake in the beginning. But as they spend time together and let their walls down the feels start and that includes some toe-curling sex in a linen closet and then in other places. But with the fun comes a surprise that will or will not break them.......
I really enjoyed this fast-paced story about two fantastic characters and the passion that burns between them. I also liked that the other band members and Shelby's sister and friends are part of the story, but you don't have to have read the other books to understand what is happening. This book is a great addition to the series.

I am voluntarily reviewing an advanced reader copy of this book.
Shelby was packing to go on the vacation that she has been wanting for what feels like forever when she gets the call that derails everything. Soul Obsession has reformed, and they need her expertise, this is the job that could make or break her career, so of course the holiday is forgotten, and she is already in high gear ready to get to work. Although she had never been a major fan of the band the only way that you wouldn't know who they were would be if you were dead, and she was now going to be dealing with the countrywide tour and Jameson Munroe who had made a career out of bad publicity. Meeting him it doesn't take long to learn that not everything you read is true and she is soon playing his fake girlfriend when everything she feels becomes anything but fake, could this job lead to the ultimate reward or her downfall?
Jameson Munroe is a talented song writer and a musician who was once a part of one of the most popular groups Soul Obsession. But it has been ten years since they last played and toured together but they owed the record company one last album and as soon as they have finished, he has his new solo album ready to release. But he is suddenly bung accused of stealing another artist's work and needs a makeover on his reputation. Shelby is efficient and when it is suggested that she is the perfect girlfriend to overhaul his image, he has never looked so good, but things get confusing, and she is all he can see. He wasn't meant to fall in love with his fake girlfriend, and she is ell aware of his reputation, could something more be possible or is he the one who will be left heartbroken this time around?
I liked this book but didn't love it, I wasn't convinced of their connection or of what they had was real. I still liked the book but can't say I want to read it again. 3.5*

This book is a part of the Galentine’s Groupies series and focuses on Jameson and Shelby. Jameson is a member of the well known band Soul Obsession. The band had been on a break for the past 10 years but when they were called back to finish out their obligations to the record label, the band had to release a new album and go on a reunion tour. Shelby was offered a once in a lifetime opportunity to be the tour manager for the reunion tour and she was completely over the moon excited for it. Jameson had acquired a reputation as a troublemaker during the initial peak of the band and it seems like it had stuck around for the reunion tour. When Jameson is hit with a scandal that is hurting his reputation, it is mentioned that it would help his reputation to look more settled down by having a girlfriend. He decides to ask Shelby to step into that role for the duration of the tour. What starts off as a fake arrangement turns real pretty quickly. The arrangement went from fake to everything that they had been needing in life and didn’t even realize it. This was a great story and a great addition to the series.

This book is part of the multi-author Galentine's Groupie's series featuring the cute fake-dating, surprise pregnancy romance between Jameson and Shelby. Jameson and his band Soul Obsession have been on a hiatus for 10yrs but they're back to finish their obligation to the record label. This means they're putting out a new album and they're doing a reunion tour. Shelby is offered the opportunity of a lifetime to be the tour manager for Soul Obsession's reunion tour and she's thrilled. Jameson had a reputation as a playboy during the band's heyday and it seems to have survived the hiatus and come along on the reunion tour. Which is causing quite a commotion so when Jameson is facing a scandal that threatens his reputation it's suggested that being involved with a girlfriend would help his reputation. Jameson asks Shelby to be his fake-girlfriend and what starts off phony soon turns real really fast. I don't want to say anymore and ruin it for anyone else with spoilers. You really need to read this cute fake-dating, surprise pregnancy romance to see what happens. I would recommend reading this book.

This was a first read of Fern's for me. Boy did she not disappoint!!
I was taken right away with Jameson, the rockstar. He def has more than the papparzi eye can see. He finds himself drawn to tour coordinator, and last minute fill in Shelby.
Shelby is way to busy living her best professional life, and uses this tour to show how good she is at her job. She doesn't expect to secretly be taken by Jaemson.
These two are always between flirt and fight. After a scandal has Shelby agreeing to be his fake girlfriend, it becomes very real.They spend days, hours, and weeks spending late night together, getting to know each other, and pose for the role the public wants to see.
I love the depths of their relationships. Even when things are crazy, scary, and overwhelming they still are drawn to each other. Even his friends in the band as they do this reunion tour can see how much he has settled and changed since he got into the "fake" relationship.
You won't regret the humor, chemistry, humor, and love you feel in this book!!! I can't wait to keep reading this series.

I’m totally reading this series out of order but it doesn’t seem to matter, as I’m still enjoying it very much. Each novella is written by a different author and features a different couple but revolves around the same group of characters, and timeline.
Each one is an “insta-love” or, at least “insta-attention”, romance and tells an entire story in a shorter read.
Boy Band Baby Bump involves the bad boy crooner of former boy band, Soul Obsession and their new tour manager, Shelby. The chemistry between them is off the charts, even though their relationship is a ploy to improve Jameson’s reputation. One thing leads to another and, what Shelby thinks is a bout of the flu, turns out to be an “oops” baby.
Spicy fun with a sweet, smoking hot heartthrob and a no-nonsense, sexy tour manager and, of course, a satisfying, happy ending.

Shelby was packing to go on her much needed vacation when she got a call to be the band coordinator for the Soul Obsession. She knew this job would put her right where she wants to be. She took the job and put the vacation on hold.
Jameson Munroe was the lead singer and song writer. When he saw Shelby things changed. He had a reputation that he wanted to change. After a few weeks getting to know Shelby he asked her to be his fake girlfriend. She agreed but then things changed when they were stuck together in a closet in the hotel to get away from the paparazzi. That one time changed their feelings for one another. After a couple of weeks of being together she found out she was pregnant. Jameson was thrilled and wanted to make everything official between them.
What started out to be fake romance turned into the HEA they both always wanted.

Rock star romance, which made me laugh and feel with them. Great characters. Swoon worthy moments, like when he sings just for her.

Fake is complicated....
....love is the ultimate complication!
Shelby and Jameson are the classic opposites attract, he is wild and thrives on adventure and fun, she is super organised, has lists for her lists and no time for dating or socialising. So whilst he helps her relax, chill out and have fun, she helps him see that not all adventures have to be crazy - sometimes the best adventures can be found close to home. I am glad Jameson is finally brave enough to admit his feelings and ask Shelby for what he wants the most. They are a likable couple, both misunderstood by others, but they see each other, they understand the others fears and they have chemistry that explodes from the page.
A great read on Kindle Unlimited.

I loved Boy Band Baby Bump. Shelby has a great opportunity to work with Soul Obsession on their reunion tour. She even gave up her Caribbean vacation. She wasn’t expecting things to end up with her fake dating Jameson. They have a real chemistry but it would be crazy to fall for him, he’s famous and she’s just a normal person. As the tour continues they give into the chemistry and well things happen. Can they take a chance on forever? Shelby fits ti perfectly with Jameson, he dies t want to let her go and he’s ready to tell her she’s his future. He just hits she’s in the same page. I loved the storyline and the characters. This is a great series and I would definitely recommend this book.

Boy Band Baby Bump is a hot and swoony slow burn with compelling main characters and a sweet sizzle. Shelby is undeniably hardworking and independent, intelligent and kind. Jameson is a self-assured rock star working on improving himself and his image. Together their chemistry is explosive. Regardless of their circumstances, they are drawn together like magnets, sucking us fun ride. Author Fern Fraser does a beautiful job of twisting their complex tale with their friends as supporting characters that help them each along their paths to finding their own true happiness. I loved this story, particularly the climax!

Shelby Fitzgerald gets the opportunity to be the tour manager for Soul Obsession. She also gets to invite her sister Ireland and their other friends to join the tour because they all loved the boy band 10 years ago.

Do they feel the same way about each other? Can they be a real couple? I’m glad Shelby got her own story in the series.

A job with a lot of benefits! Sign me up! This is about Jameson and Shelby. Shelby is getting ready to head to the Bahamas for a well-deserved vacation, but right when she is packing her bag, her boss calls her, asking to help out with a HUGE client. Well, the huge client is a boy band that her sister loved so much; how can she say no when there are VIP passes she knows she can give to her group of friends and sister? Of course it starts off very professional but then the bad boy Jameson needs a favor, the question is can she count on him after the tour is over. Great story - I loved the ending.

This engaging multi-author series continues to be highly entertaining for me and this story of Jameson and Shelby was great. These two had fab chemistry but they were doing the fake romance thing to make Jameson look like he dropped his playboy ways and Shelby, so buttoned up and organized figured it would be a piece of cake...expect she crushed on him and his band members when she was a teen and didn't think he'd have any chemistry with her in real life. Ha! These two end up with a BIG surprise and find that they can be so much more than fake. Sweet and steamy, this was a page turner for me :D

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. If you've read along with the series, you've watched Shelby and Jameson dance around each other. Once these two give in to their attraction, things happen fast. Shelby was a determined young woman, who was very good at her job. She gave up a vacation to take the opportunity to handle the band. It ended up bringing love to not only her but her friends as well. Jameson finally felt seen, even if things began as fake, and that made all the difference for him. I wish that their story ended with showing more of their future. It was funny and steamy and fit in well with the series

A história não exatamente foi ruim, mas ela não me empolgou. Levei uma semana para finalizar a leitura, o que normalmente eu teria feito em um dia. Ficou o tempo todo nesse relacionamento falso, sem ser muito falso, mas nenhum dos dois se posicionando sobre isso. A coisa foi se arrastando assim até o final. Em alguns momentos ficou até entediante. O romance não foi tão bem abordado, nem trabalhado. A gente via a Shelby, a gente via o Jameson, mas no quesito momentos de casal ficou devendo um pouco, porque sempre tinha aquela sombra de dúvida do "é real ou só fingimento?" quando eles estavam juntos. Não curti, muito, não.

A fake relationship between practical tour manager Shelby and controversy embroiled boy band frontman Jameson to get him some positive press? Should be easy to keep things uncomplicated and professional, right? But the effortless way they mesh has lines getting crossed and things heating up. Soon feelings are developing on both sides, but both are afraid the other doesn’t feel the same. Maybe finding out there’s a bun in Shelby’s oven will get these two on the same page!.
