This book was very interesting!
I enjoyed Leslie North's portrayal of the entrepreneur spirit in her characters, they were creative and had good believable dialog between them. The plot was a new mix on an old but good twist, one of my favorite kind of plots :) I enjoyed this easy light-hearted read,
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars for the characters personalities, the entrepreneur spirit, and the cute love story.
The only thing I think could have made it better was having more interaction with supporting characters. It seemed focused wholly on the main two characters giving not a lot of dimension to the story.

This light and easy read about Mila Tomlinson and Grayson Finlay was steamy and nice to read. I loved how simple and quick this was and the development of the characters while reading about them.

Mila Tomlinson is a small boutique owner in San Francisco and when Grayson Finlay the CEO of a rather famous tech company in San Francisco comes in asking for help in his outfit from an accident on the streets, their attraction was clear. I liked the way they didn’t fall in love immediately even though they were attracted to each other from the start, making it nice to read the way their attraction for each other slowly built up.

Both Mila and Grayson have a one night stand, unaware of its consequence when Mila falls pregnant with Grayson’s child. Grayson who is the owner of a very famous tech company recruits Mila to help him in a fashion competition to better promote his new app and slowly throughout their competition, both Mila and Grayson fall in love with each other.

I liked how quick and fast this read was and gave this three stars. I enjoyed the way Grayson was slowly coming to terms with Mila’s pregnancy and of him being a father, however, I found that the plot was kind of boring. I was hoping for more action and even though they both had some conflict toward the end, there wasn’t such a huge plot twist or conflict that made this story stand out. While I loved the romance in it, I feel as though there could have been more to the story that made this story different from others.

I didn’t feel very connected to this short book as much as I wished I did although the romance was very enjoyable to read and Mila and Grayson were great as a couple. And, the hierarchy of poor to rich with Grayson as we learn about him more throughout the book.

This was a nice read and I think people could enjoy it as a short read even if I did not enjoy it as immensely.

I loved this book, the story and the characters were great.

Grayson and Mila were great together, they immediately fell for each other, and Grayson isn't ready to let her leave and need to see her again.

They were both very adorabel together even if sometimes I really wanted to punch Grayson for his behavior. Because of his past, his business is very important and dear to him, to the point where he is slowly making distances with the woman he fell in love but refused to admit it.

I can't wait to read more books written by this author.

This is my first book by this author.

This is Mila and Graysons story.
I personally thought this was moving way too fast from the beginning. And the whole pregnancy drama was a bit much.
In it the end it was just and ok read.

I’ll see what book two brings.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ebook copy in exchange for an honest review.

I was looking for a short, sweet romance and this book delivered! It is the perfect length for the story so you don't have to sit through a lot of exposition and can get right into the story. Mila and Grayson are great leading characters and it was easy to root for them as a couple. It is immediately established as a love-at-first-sight story which works for and against it - a lot of time is not wasted with the development of the relationship (there is a time and place for those types of stories, but this one did not need it), but there could have been a little more with Grayson's fears of not being able to financially support his family. Things between him and Mila toward the end probably would have gone much differently had they had an open and honest conversation about his fears and insecurities. The competition part of the story was a little bit of a stretch, but if provided a cute way for them to build their relationship. As far as the secondary characters, I loved Mila's brother and best friend. both were just the right amount of supportive and funny. Lainey's pep talk to Mila toward the end was perfect and prevented Mila from falling too far into the "how will I ever go on without this guy?" mindset. I was a little bummed when I discovered that Lainey would not be the woman in Blake's story - they seemed like they would have good chemistry.

Leslie North managed to pull an amazingly funny romance. Book #1 of the Billionaire's Club series, The Billionaire's Pregnant Competition presents the story of Grayson and Mila. Mila, a small business owner, gets into a competition with Grayson, a billionaire tech magnate. The story itself is cute and funny. Mila has a great personality, and is trying hard to make herself the life she always wanted. Grayson is okay, but not incredible. Yet, I would recommend this book if you're looking for a short romance.

Looking for a cute romance to make your day. Pick this one up. Although the outcome was predictable I enjoyed every minute of this really sweet read about unexpected outcomes when fate puts two people together

This was the sweetest book I’ve read in a long time. The story line was a love at first sight one; filled with promise and a hint of mischief.
The author did not disappoint when it came to the authors characters either.. Mila is a strong passionate woman whose ideas and feelings are openly portrayed through the feelings.
Grayson is a man that has issues with his leadership after being left by his father.
The pair find out they’re pregnant and have a few issues to get sorted; but find each other in the end.
Wonderful read.

The Billionaires Pregnant Competition by Leslie North

Grayson is a technology whizz kid billionaire and has designed a new app which helps people dress for all occasions. His app is due for release at the same time as his very successful business goes public. On the way to an important investors meeting he is soaked by a passing car. Therefore he goes into Mila’s boutique to get a change of clothes though not what he would have chosen but was extremely impressionable. He then designs a competition for Mila against the clothes app and the public . Then the fun begins.

An enjoyable story and fast moving read if that is what you desire and very typical of Leslie North’s style. Another success.

The Billionaire’s Pregnant Competition was a great book to pick up if you don’t want to invest too much time into a book but still want characters with some depth to them. This book can easily be read in a day.

I adored Mila’s character from the very beginning, I loved her wit and her backbone. I also really liked Grayson, except for those few times I wanted to knock him around the head... men! I also really enjoyed that this whole book revolves around fashion, yet was simple enough that anyone could enjoy the backstory. I also really enjoyed the supporting characters, each of them felt well developed and intriguing in their own rights.

Honestly, there were only two slight things that I would have changed. First, the speed and degree in which Mila hired staff was unrealistic. For someone to have worked so hard at getting her business to where it was, she wouldn’t have given up the reigns so easily. The other thing that I wished was a bit different was the length of the book. I felt like a couple of repetitive things could have been removed and that more time could have been spend focusing on Mila & Grayson as their relationship started to grow, but maybe that’s just because I couldn’t get enough of their connection.

Steamy Rating: 3/5 🔥 🔥 🔥

*Thank you Netgalley for gifting me with a copy of this book*

Grayson is so cool , he has many faults but I love this character.
He’s cool under fire , nothing seems to ruffle his feathers , he finds solutions.

Then he meets Mila and he’s out on a limb , suddenly he needs another person to fill his needs , more than just a one night stand.
He’s confused and fights it , but sometimes our destiny is not what we had planned.

Love this book , it shows that the best laid plans are always up for change at the last minute .
Mila is sweet and beautiful inside and out . She’s determined though, and Grayson has his work cut out to impress her.

Characters are great so is the writing.
Can wait for the rest of the series.

I received an Arc copy of this book and chose to post this review

This book was a really great read and perfect start to a new series. It was not a normal one night stand with a pregnancy involved. It was so much more. Can’t wait to read the other books in this series to see how Grayson’s friends get stung by the love bug!

Leslie North books can be a little hit or miss for me, but I definitely liked this one! The chemistry between the leads is melt-yo-panties-off hot! But their relationship blooms in a very sweet and natural way, even if it starts with a one night stand.

Mila is a great heroine. She is smart and a hard worker. She is funny and passionate and I just loved how she stood up for herself as the book progressed. Grayson is very driven after growing up in poverty with a single mom. I really wish we had heard more of his story and more of how it drives him today. The leads had a few very short conversations about his childhood, but it was such a huge factor in his motivations that I didn't feel like we really got into it enough. I wanted more.

This book was a great blend of sexy, steamy, sweet and swoony! I can't wait to read the next book in the series.

I received a free ARC of this title from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

First of this new North series. One of the best books I have read by this author. A chance meeting by two driven people will make for a good HEA. Enjoy this one.

A sweet, quick, fun read. I am not interested in fashion but found the premise of app vs. person interesting, though I thought they would do it differently (style two men, for example, because I would think that it would be hard to compare a woman's outfit vs. a man's outfit).

Kindly received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I like the idea of Grayson's App. The way that they used that and Mila's boutique as promotion was brilliant. I really enjoyed reading, The Billionaire's Pregnant Competition. It was funny and pretty sexy.
