The Knocked-Up Plan is one of the funniest and cutest pregnancy Romance books!

Ryker and Nicole are both therapists and very open and clear about their feelings and wishes. It was pretty heartwrenching how they both dared to be vulnerable with each other.
This is one of my favorite Lauren Blakely books! It’s a steamy, entertaining Romantic Comedy that can give you tons of happy feels!

Oh, Josh and Gemma… this book is everything you want in a planned pregnancy Romance novel!
Gemma is divorced and struggles with infertility due to endometriosis. She decides she doesn’t want a life partner, but she does want to try having a child on her own.
Instead of an anonymous donor, she asks her brother’s best friend, the guy she had her first time with, if he would be open to donating.
I found Gemma so relatable, and this is such a fun listen! Erin Mallon is a fantastic narrator with such sexy guy voices.

The Baby Proposition is extremely captivating, and it really scratched my itch for planned pregnancy Romance books! I fell so hard for these two. And I loved Kim Loraine’s little meta-comments on Romance books.

Lauren is a very self-reliant woman, and since the relationship with the love of her life came to an ugly end, she decides to make her baby dream come true in a clinic.
Unlike most other titles on my list of planned pregnancy Romance books, Pipe Dreams revolves mainly around Lauren and Mike getting their second chance. The baby plan is a bit of a catalyst for them, even though Lauren doesn’t plan in any way for Mike to be involved.
This is an extremely heart-wrenching novel, given the history of loss that Mike and his daughter experienced.
If you enjoy second chance love stories, Pipe Dreams is the pregnancy Romance book for you!

In this Historical Romance, a lady desperately needs a child. Not so much out of her wish to have one but because of the difficult societal structures she lives in.
A Lady Awakened is an insanely good book! And if you get a bit of a kick out of awkward bedroom scenes this one is a must-read.
The love story is so sweet and tender. The surrounding storyline is intriguing and kept me pretty much on the edge of my seat. And I absolutely adored this version of planned pregnancy Romance books!
Susan Ericksen is an excellent narrator who filled this story with so much life and emotion.

Nobody’s Baby But Mine
Susan Elizabeth Phillips (Author), Anna Fields (Narrator)

Nobody’s Baby But Mine is a classic by Romancelandia standards, where things evolve very quickly – which means this book from 1997 has a lot of iffy moments that might well make today’s reader cringe. Nevertheless, it made me laugh out loud many times!
It’s entertaining and a wonderful take on the planned pregnancy Romance trope.
Jane makes an awful, awful mistake. But she is still somehow extremely charming and lovable. And really, the same goes for Cal who most definitely is a problematic hero.
Yet, if you go in reading this book as set in the time it was written in (and when they rock out to Rod Stewart while watching VH1 it’s really not hard to remember that these are the 90s, haha), it’s very enjoyable indeed and a great addition for everyone looking for planned pregnancy Romance books!

When She’s Pregnant is too adorable! If you’re ready to take your love for planned pregnancy Romance books to a different planet, you will love this one.
Naomi and Ainar are so sweet together, and I instantly fell in love. You can tell how taxing it is for Naomi to accept that she won’t be able to return to Earth and her family. And Ainar is from an entirely different culture.
But the two make the perfect match, and it’s so romantic how this baby-making turns into real feelings.
Mason Lloyd and Jillian Maxie filled this audiobook with so much feeling, it’s absolutely wonderful and very much worth a listen!
