Grumpy Boss's Secret Baby by Aimee Bronson

Grumpy Boss's Secret Baby Reviews

  Thalia and Damian's Dream . . .
  
  For me, this story became a lesson in having dreams to reach for, with some reaching that dream while others are forced to sacrifice for something else and give up the original path they were on. How does that affect a person? Thalia and Damian both had that dream. He was able to make it there. Thalia, however, has a daughter she chose over her own dreams.
  
  When Thalia and Damian reconnect along the way, does he even remember her? Will he push her away? Or will he ask the magic question about her 4-year-old daughter, Luna? And what choices will they have to make this time?

  •Nanny For The Grumpy CEO:
  This was a great read. This story is told in dual first person POV. This was one that needs all the kudos for Amiee Bronson for bringing awareness to a health issue that is hardly talked about.
  
  I’m I loved Troy and Alison. They are complete opposites, but perfect for each other. I love that even though Alison has the weight of the world on her shoulders, she stays up beat and positive about everything. She is selfless, sweet and caring.
  
  I love how they meet the first time and Alison’s reaction to him had his interest in her sparking something in him he thought was froze over long ago. I love their attraction to each other from the get go. I love that their attraction just continues to grow with the more time they spend together.
  
  •Stuck With My Grumpy Boss:
  This is book two of this series, told in dual first person pov and leaves you with a HEA. I have enjoyed all of Amiee Bronson’s books that I’ve read so far and I can’t wait for more.
  
  I wanted to yell at Ben for being so grumpy. I smiled and encouraged Olivia for standing up to him and finding her way in reporting. My heart went out to her for the obstacles and off handed mocking she had to face. I was so proud of her for standing her ground and not letting them know it was hurting her feelings. I loved how she saw the good side of Ben and had his back even though he treated her poorly.
  
  I wasn’t a fan of Ben in the beginning, but when his thoughts came to light, he reminding me of the bully on the playground who was secretly crushing. He redeemed himself for standing up for Olivia. I loved that he trusted her enough to enlist her help with the threat that was endangering his career. I loved that he finally stood up to the haters toward Olivia and his father.
  
  Their chemistry was undeniable, and I’m glad that they were able to work together and also be together. I loved they were determined to face everything head on together and let their love overcome anything they faced.
  
  •My Grumpy Billionaire Enemy:
  This is the third installment of this series, told in dual first person POV and leaves you with a HEA. This was a good read about enemies to lovers who get a second chance and it can be read as a standalone.
  
  Amy and Daniel went to high school together, Amy on a scholarship, Daniel because of his wealth. They had a falling out and years later after Amy made something of herself, she found herself in a situation where she needed funding. Daniel looking to repair his work reputation, only planned to use her research to turn his company image around, but got so much more.
  
  Amy was sweet and caring, determined and successful (except when she got her revenge on Daniel). Daniel was stuck in a CEO position that he didn’t want, grumpy and protective when Amy catches his attention. I wouldn’t say they were really enemies, aside from Daniel making a rude remark to her in high school and she held a grudge against him for it ever since. Their chemistry was really good and they both had more in common than they thought in the family drama area.
  
  The research storyline was great and exciting and the fact that they both got their HEA with each other and their family.

  Main Characters: Thalia & Damian
  
  
  Grumpy Boss's Secret Baby was definitely different than I expected based on the title. I went in blind, and I'm glad that I did. Usually not telling the parent until later trooe isn't for me. I just feel like that is wrong on soo many levels. But this isn't real life.
  
  Thalia was a great character with so much grit and gusto. She did everything she could for Luna and was unapologetic about where she lived and had for possessions. She didnt care about those things as long as Luna had everything she needed.
  
  Damian was a rockstar from the very beginning. We weren't given much of a backstory for him which would have given him more depth as a person. We could have gotten to know him better as to how he became who he was as a person more than the rockstar he became.
  
  🌶️- had some great scenes that showed this was more than a physical relationship. It showed the care they each took to show their feelings towards each other.
  
  
  I think the plot could have used a little more work. They spoke about not rushing things but towards the end it was super rushed. I think if they would have taken more time to get Luna more acclimated to what would be her new surroundings it would have made for a smoother transition. Going from a small apartment to a massive house with more than you could have ever imagined would be a bit of a shock.

  This is a story is amazing from start to finish. I've been a fan of Aimee's since I came across her work.
  
  This story of Damian and Thalia is full on packed with all the feels, vibes, passion, angst, sass, and love. Lots of love. When we meet these two they act like strangers. Thalia really needed a well paying job, and Damian is showing back up in his music label business to invest in another album.
  
  Thalia is shocked to see Damian. He has no memory of their past history, and love affair. She immediately tamps down on the hurt of him not remembering her. He was just a small town guy trying to get his start back then. She had priorities and those include a small daugter.
  
  Damian plays is well. No one is all the wiser that he is struck with shock as he sees the love of his life walk back into his life. She left without a word years ago, and hasn't seen her since. She has no idea every song he's written since then is about her. She has no idea he had to shut down that part of his heart to be able to go on and become one of the biggest musicians in the world.
  
  They funny story as they work together, and get to know each other without ever admitting they remember each other, until one night on the road it finally comes to head. And what BIG one it is!!
  
  Got you interested yet? You should be. This story has all feels you want in this romance book. Its intriguing, keeps your interest, makes you route for the two, and seamlessly propel the story along. Whatever you planned on doing after you started this book.....put it on hold now. You aren't going to want to stop until you are done!

  This is the second installment of this series, told in dual first person POV and leaves you with a HEA. This can be read as a standalone and is a great second chance, enemies to lovers romance.
  
  Thalia and Damian have a history that is slowly revealed throughout the book. Both had big dreams to make it in the music world, but only one achieved that dream while the other sacrificed their dream.
  
  I loved that Thalia was determined to give her daughter the world. I loved that given their history, Thalia still took the chance to take the job, even if it meant working with more than one person she wasn’t a fan of. I loved that she confronted Damian and told him everything.
  
  I didn’t know what to think of Damian for awhile. Especially with the way Thalia kept hinting about their past. Once the truth was revealed, I understood him better and he won me over.
  
  I can’t wait for more from Amiee Bronson and see what adventure we go on next. Out of all the books I’ve read so far, this one may be my favorite one yet.
  
  These thoughts and opinions are my own and left voluntarily after reading for my own personal enjoyment.

  This was a wonderful story. We follow Thalia and Damian , they were in a relationship 5 years ago and both wanted to make it in the music world, but they each went in different directions , one succeeded in that dream and Thalia saw that dream go up in flames because she had no other option because, she had to take care of a baby.
  Years later, Damian has made it and Thalia can barely make ends meet. When they meet again when she gets a new job at Damian's company and he doesn't remember their relationship and now she works for him. At first I could hit him because of how he acted towards her. Will he remember her and does she tell him that they know each other and have had a relationship and that a beautiful daughter has resulted from their daughter? This was a great and beautiful novel.

  WOW! Must read it was a page turner and the suspense was realistic fantasy and romance. I was at the edge of my seat it was addicted spicy. Thaila and Damian chemistry was intoxicating and the attraction was physical tension going between these two. Thaila was a single mother was raising her four year old daughter by herself. She been struggling for months by working a low income job. Until she ran into Damian who offer a job working for him. But something happened to Damian. Damian could not remember her so he started to push her away. Could they find love with each other or will this be a one night stand. I highly recommend this book and you will not be disappointed.

  This second chance was well worth it. When Thalia ended up working at Damian record company all bets were off. He acted like he didn't remember her but he actually did. Getting past the hurt feelings but looking for an answer to what happened is what drove Damian to find answers. Thalia was there to support her daughter. Coming face to face with the man she once love left a bitter taste in her mouth. Keeping her personal feelings to herself became harder and harder. When circumstances kept throwing them together the truth was finally revealed and all he$$ was to pay because they both lost out on a lot at the hands of one man. The story brings the heat, the banter, the secrets and most of all the love for the one that was lost and the love of a child that was kept in the dark.

  This is Book 2 in the Billionaire Keepers Series by this author, and can be read as a standalone. It is a second chance romance between former lovers, Thalia and Damian. These flawed but likeable characters and the unique plot make for an intriguing read. Once they reconnect, their sizzling chemistry and strong connection are undeniable as they navigate the bumpy road to their forever after. It is a heartfelt love story with drama and steam, redemption and trust, humor and charm, twists and turns. Add to that an interesting cast of supporting characters to keep the reader's attention. A page turner with a happy ending.

  Damian and Thalia. What one was lost, could it be found again? Five years, two different paths, two people's lives come crashing back together.
  
  What could go wrong? What secrets are there to tell? Can two stubborn people find their way back to each other? Is the past best left.... in the past?
  
  This one will make you laugh, maybe cry a little, happy tears of course, but most of all, you will be rooting for the little girl in the corner for her HEA.
  
  Bronson has done it again. I always wonder how many secret baby stories can you tell before they get boring? Well obviously, a lot, because this one was great!.

  I really enjoyed this fantastic book!! This Grumpy/Sunshine with a secret baby Romance is one of my favorite tropes...Being a single mom, I can relate to Thalia's struggles on having a career and being a mom. Damian's character..even a grump was likeable. The descriptions of music and touring was very relatable and understandable to those not of musical background..I suggest to curl up with a nice glass of wine some snacks and enjoy this easy to read, charming characters, swoon with some angst, second chance romance. Your heart will be captured from the beginning till the end...😉💖

  4.7⭐️ Lost love, music & a secret baby
  
  As usual, Aimee Bronson delivers a fantastic story with well-developed characters, a steamy love story & a HEA. The beginning had some angst that built up to the revealing twist that I was pleased with. I was happy with the ending, but also wouldn’t have minded a 2nd epilogue that showed them years down the road, with Thalia as a successful artist with awards on the wall next to Damian’s.

  Thalia and Damien were involved in the past and she had a child without him knowing. Fast forward 5 years, Thalia gets a job working for superstar Damien as a studio assistant. At first meeting he doesn't seem to remember her, she is livivd. As they get to know each other all over again they fall in love once again. He lets her know he does remember everything. He meets his daughter and they become a family. I recommend this book to all romance readers.

  Love the Second Chance Dynamic.
  I actually like the way the author started the story with no one (especially Damian Apollo) remembering who the one song wonder Thalia Santana was. It’s noble Thalia’s reasons for delaying her singing dreams as a single mom (we find out why). It was tender reading Thalia and Damian’s history. I enjoyed reading their story about second chances, especially when fate wants a couple to stay together. The copy I got needed some editing so my four stars reflect that but the story itself is endearing and sweet.

  Damian and Thalia were once upcoming artists and a couple but they took different paths. Damian became a Grumpy Billionaire Musician in the few years Thalia was struggling to pay rent and raise the baby he knew nothing about. When Thalia shows up to her new job at the label Damian owns things don't go as either of them planned. This was an interesting story with lots of twists and turns. I really enjoyed it and think you'll find it entertaining.

  Aimee does it again, Excellent, addictive read.
  This was Second Chance, Enemies To Lovers, Workplace Romance and Secret Child Tropes.
  Thalia and Damien have had a lot against them. It was a book exploring both of their actions.
  Both made plenty of mistakes. Can they overcome this and finally have that HEA? This had drama, secrets, pain, emotional, humour , love and spice.
  I always enjoy reading Aimee's books. Page turner's that captivate you until the end.
