Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Am I supposed to believe this?
Review: I am sorry, but it was all I could do to keep reading past the first few chapters which has so many "coincidences." It was completely unbelievable and should insult any reader's intelligence. Am I wrong to expect *some* credibility to support a seriously twisted and unlikely plot? It didn't completely suck, though. Once I got past the first few chapters there was some good stuff to the book and I kept reading. I said good stuff, though, not necessarily believable. You don't believe me? Read for yourself, but I warned you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best of the "Chicago" series
Review: "Nobody's Baby But Mine" is the third book in the "Chicago" series and the best. I loved it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful book!
Review: It pulled at my heart and made me laugh all at the same time. Kudos to Ms. Pillips.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Good
Review: I read it in 2 days! Tugged at your heart at times, and even cracked me up (which is hard to do).

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Work
Review: As usual, SEP's storyline was original and unique. I fell in love with the charcters at first sight (read). Also, the twists and turns that led a resigned football player and a genius physcist to fall deeply, madly and truely in love are quite believable. Good work as usual, SEP, keep on writing!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love those Bonner's
Review: After reading the second book, Dream A Little Dream, (read backwards on accident) I felt like I knew this family well. Nobody's Baby but Mine is the first book in this wonderful series about the Bonner family.

On Jane Darlington's 34th birthday, she realizes that one thing is missing from her life, a baby. Although she desperately wants a baby, she doesn't want a husband. After some research she finds the perfect "sperm donor", Cal Bonner, the aging quarterback for the Chicago Chiefs. The reason Cal is picked is because he is presumed to be "a dumb hillbilly". After being set up as Cal's 36th "birthday present", Jane finds herself pregnant. She is thrilled. Unfortunately, (or fortunately??) Cal finds out about it. Being no dummy, he doesn't want his child to be raised without a father so he forces Jane to marry him (planning a convient divorce after the baby is born).

After the quickie marriage, Jane and Cal leave for North Carolina to spend 3 months. There they fight a lot and finally fall in love, although without a lot of snags.

When I first started this book I didn't like Jane and Cal. Dowdy Jane seemed too straight laced and boring and Cal seemed like a jerk. Throughout the book I began to love the couple as I did Rachel and Gabe in Dream A Little Dream. With the second book, this book also had a secondary story that was wonderful. Cal's parents Lynn and Jim are having problems and finally realize that, although they were forced into marriage at a very young age, they have a true love for eachother. I hope that Kevin is in a book sometime in the future. I really liked the guy.

If you're a fan of Susan Elizabeth Phillips (or if you're not become one!) this book is a must read.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Skip it and read one of her others
Review: The plot is not believable. The characters aren't developed enough so you really can buy into the story.

There are better SEP books to read than this one.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A Bit Far-Fetched.
Review: Susan Elizabeth Phillips has a unique writing style which captivates. But the story of this book is a bit too far-fetched. If only she had made the heroine more attractive , beautiful , better-endowed and less dowdy, there would have been stronger chemistry and sexual tension between the couple to make the story more credible.It is a Cinderella type of story except that Dr. Darlington was not portrayed a beauty but a drab middle-aged plain Jane.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best books I have read in a long time!!
Review: This was the best book that I have read in years. I finished it in one day. It made me laugh right out loud and cry real tears as well. I have never in my life read a book twice and I read this one over again!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It wasn't that good
Review: I love Miss Phillips usually but this book really irritated me. The characters were extremely angry and barely had time to fall in love. I must say that this book was tortously slow. I don't especially recommend to anyone by Phillips fans otherwise newscomers will not see the true genius of Miss. Phillips
