His ex inherited a baby—and she needs his help! Only from USA TODAY bestselling author Janice Maynard! 

James Kavanagh is rich and sexy as sin, but his workaholic neighbor Lila Baxter has been there, done that—and has the heartbreak to prove it. They've avoided each other since their affair ended, but now she's brought home a baby. 

He's clearly the last man Lila wants to ask for help. But she knows nothing about babies, and James is a born family man. When one offer of help leads to another, they're soon under the same roof. Almost like a real family. Suddenly the heat they've ignored is ready to ignite!

3.0 out of 5 stars The final book in a very inconsistent series
Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2017
Verified Purchase
I've read the entire series and can say there were quite a few holes in it. The author (one I haven't read before) was not consistent throughout the series. In book 2, there is a pregnancy at the end of it. In all subsequent books, there is no mention of a child nor an explanation of miscarriage or whatever for there not being a child. She references the IVF baby in each for this same couple. In another book, the twins were a boy and a girl, in the next book she says twin girls. I know these are romance/fantasy books to take you away, but if an author is going to write a series, to me there should be consistency.

This is the last book in the Kavanagh brothers series. James is the youngest and Lila is his next door neighbor and former girlfriend from 3 years ago. Both of these characters are quite independent and stubborn. James is a family man at heart, and Lila insists she doesn't want kids (the reasoning explained in the book just didn't make sense to me). So, they broke up 3 years ago. Now she's inherited her niece and goes to James for help.

Lila waffles back and forth the entire book with do I keep the baby, do I give her up for adoption? She's portrayed as very career centered (another reason for their breakup). James agrees to help her. She moves into his house while he renovates hers to accommodate a baby. Now, why on Earth would Lila ask him to renovate her house when she constantly waffles if she's going to keep the baby? Didn't make sense to me. But, it was how the author set up for this couple to "play house."

Of course in a romance novel there has to be the get together, then conflict to tear them apart before they can make their way back together. Their conflict also didn't make sense. Lila flat out asks James to have sex with her so she can feel "normal." Then, she gets upset they had sex! I just could not connect with Lila at all.

Making their way back together was predictable. I just could connect with it either. This couple had sex to forget what was going on in their lives. And, they pretty much had a fight after sex every time. Both assuming what the other wanted out of life. Both too stubborn and insistent with their opinions to the other. I just didn't feel they were a good couple together.

For romance novels and an escape for the reader, these books are fine. I just have a hard time with inconsistencies. The author should know her characters and not mess up their stories in subsequent ones.

The Book Reading Gals
5.0 out of 5 stars What I loved about this book was the focus on the family.
Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2016
Thoughts: Janice Maynard is one of my absolute favorite HQN authors and try and read all of her books, so when I saw she had a new HQN I knew I was going to read it.

One of the things I love about Maynard is how real her characters are. James and Lila have a complicated relationship. So when Lila shows up with a baby James sees it as a chance to get Lila back, as he’s missed her. More than he thought until she’s back under his roof.

Lila is at a crossroads in her life. Emotions make no sense to her, so when she inherits her niece and has to move in with James for a couple of weeks while he remodels her house she’s inundated with emotions she has no clue how to deal with.

What I loved about this book was the focus on the family. Everything that influenced them both in regards to each other and the baby had to do with family, the ones they were raised in and the one they wanted in the future. Their journey to HEA wasn’t easy and there were a lot of tears (mine included) but in the end I couldn’t have imagined a better ending for these two and the Kavanagh family.

Grade A

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful story
Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2016
For Baby’s Sake by Janice Maynard is another wonderful book about the Kavanaghs.

Lila Baxter likes her world very orderly, numbers are her thing and they don’t lie. She is thrown for a loop when her half sister dies leaving an eight month old baby girl Sybbie in her care. Lila turns to her neighbor James Kavanagh to help make some changes to her home.

James Kavanagh is a gifted craftsman with his hands. He loves to work on homes to make them better. His biggest regret is the failed relationship with the woman next door. When Lila needs help James is more then willing to pitch in.

Spending so much time together has the former lovers turning to each other. When Lila has to make a tough decision about Sybbie’s care will James be there for her to lean on?

The whole Kavanagh series has been a gem. Its fun and sexy. James and Lila story is a delight.

A sweet sexy contemporary with a happy-ever-after..
James Cavenaugh's sexy neighbor Lila is back home.....with a baby.
They has a fling that didn't last, and now she needs him to help her renovate her home to care for her motherless niece.
A quick job turns into a long renovation when he finds termites and close proximity brings their hidden feelings to the fore.
I received a free ARC for my honest opinion.
