'He's not mine, is he?' That's the question I fear the most. You see, I have a secret. My son is not fathered by my boyfriend, but by one of the most famous rock stars that ever lived. And he doesn't even know it. One-time celebrity personal assistant to wild boy of rock Johnny Jefferson, Meg Stiles is now settled and living in the south of France with her doting boyfriend Christian and their son Barney. But they're living a lie - a lie that will turn their lives upside down and inside out - because as Barney reaches his first birthday, Meg can no longer deny that her son is growing to look more and more like his rock star father every day, and less and less like Christian, and sooner or later, the world is going to realise ...

Fun, summery chick-lit with bite - if you want a bit of escapism, this is perfect poolside fodder. --Cosmopolitan
'Fun, summery chick-lit with bite'
--Cosmopolitan, July Issue
'A fun beach read - great if you're looking for a holiday book that's not just boy-meets-girl' --Heat Magazine, 19 July 2011
It's a great poolside read, offering a slice of glamorous escapism in the tales of the A-list lifestyle, but also providing a dose of realism and seriousness in the aspects involving Barney's future and well-being. Fans of traditional frivilous chick lit won't be disappointed either, as Meg still manages to take the odd mini break or girlie night out without Barney too.

It is going to be extremely tough to say everything that I want to say, not only about this book but about Paige Toon and her ability to create the most beloved characters with whom I now consider to be my closest friends. It is so nice to see Meg and Johnny again. I have missed them so! I first was introduced to Toon's novels by a friend and Johnny Be Good (JBG) was my travel companion on the train from London to Birmingham. I couldn't put it down. I was so immersed in this rock star's world. I have to admit, it has always been a dream of mine to be a PA for some hot shot celebrity so I was living my dream through Meg. I was so gutted when it got to the end. I mean, HOW could Toon just leave me with this cliffhanger!!!! The only comfort that I had was that not only did I have the rest of Toon's novels to keep me company but there would be a sequel to this wonderful book!
Baby Be Mine is perfection. It picks up right where JBG left off and Toon really does a fantastic job keeping the characters in tact. I sometimes find it extremely difficult to like a sequel to a novel because even though the characters have the same names and are following the previous storyline, I find that they turn into completely different people-- almost like it is a complete new book. Toon doesn't fall into that category of authors-- Meg is still the same lovely girl except now she has done a bit of growing up ( a baby will do that to you!) Johnny is still the same charming and utterly gorgeous supermegafoxy rockstar god who is a serial heartbreaker, but after learning he is a father does some major renovations in his life. This book will have you literally shrieking with joy. ( I can attest to that.... Read more ›

When I heard that Paige Toon was writing a sequal to Johnny B Good I could hardly contain my excitment, and once again she didn't fail to deliever. I started reading at 10 and didn't put it down until I had devoured it. The story is a whirl wind of emotion from the gut wrenching heart ache to wanting to scream at the characters to tears of joy. Paige Toon hits the nail on the head in all aspects of this story it's just incredible! It is the perfect ending to the story of Johnny and Meg.

I loved this book and found it difficult to put down right from the start. I would highly recommend reading Johnny Be Good first which is the prequel to Baby be mine. It was wonderful to catch up with the loveable but very naughty rock god Johnny Jefferson and his ex personal assistant Meg . These books are really enjoyable with believable characters and great dialogue. I have read all of Paige Toons books and never read a bad one, but these two are my favorites.

All Meg Stiles wants is a happy life for her little son Barney and herself. But she knows that her happiness is a fragile little thing. Because her son's father is not her partner Christian but her former lover Johnny Jefferson, and both don't no anything about it. Johnny, a famous rockstar, broke Meg's heart once and she is not willing to give him a second chance, but when he realizes that he has a son everything changes and Meg has to decide how to go on.
How will Meg's future look like and will she give love a second chance?
This is going to be a rather weird review. Because at first I have to tell you why I expected to not love the book and explain the reason why I picked it up.
So far I read "Chasing Daisy and "Johnny be good" (the prequel to "Baby be mine") by Paige Toon and both books were just ok for me. I enjoyed Paige Toon's engaging writing style but I had trouble with the female main character in "Chasing Daisy". I'm just not a big fan of a heroine who has unprotected sex with someone who's in a relationship. I was also not a big fan of Johnny in "Johnny be good" and couldn't understand the adoration he got from other readers. But still I wanted to know what would happen to Meg and Johnny and if they would end up together. I couldn't stop this weird fascination from growing stronger and stronger, so I bought "Baby be mine" when I saw a good deal for it online.
So I started this book with the conviction that it would be an ok book but nothing great. However Paige Toon suprised me with this book. She made Meg and especially Johnny more likable and gave them more depth. I know that many readers had no trouble with these things in "Johnny be good" but for me it was a big issue.... Read more ›

I would go as far as to say that Paige Toon is my favourite author. I am so keen to read her books when they come out, that as soon as I see one available for pre-order on Amazon, I have to click that little button straight away!
Johnny Be Good left me quite deflated and disappointed. I loved the main characters but longed for that happy ending which just didn't come!
Baby Be Mine is a perfect follow up, and has enough twists and turns to keep you guessing right til the end! Can't wait for Paige's next book to come out now! I only finished this one today (read in record time I think) but am already having withdrawal symptoms!!
