An Expected Baby by Shadonna Richards Blog Tour

 TOP 15 LOVE SONGS FEATURING “BABY” Hi, everyone! I’m Shadonna, author of An Unexpected Baby, the sequel to An Unexpected Bride and a romantic comedy about Emma Wiggins who after believing her pregnancy test was positive is now faced with telling her darling husband the truth—only it’s not that easy, since he’s showering her with tons of love and affection thinking he’s going to become a daddy. He goes as far as to reveal to her his inner-most fear of not being able to conceive which he no longer has now that they are expecting. How could she break the news to her him without breaking his heart? It’s not as easy to burst his bubble of hope as she thinks, so she delays telling him, hoping she’d get pregnant for real. But the trouble is one can only fake pregnancy for so long. Since An Unexpected Baby is a romance that centers around the theme of having a baby, I thought I’d compile a list some of the most romantic songs featuring “Baby” in the title. Check this list out:

Hey Everyone! I would like to thank Courtney Summers and Raincoast books for the privilege of being apart of the This Is Not A Test Blog Tour! I really did love this book from the beginning to end since now I have been liking more zombie type books lately. Here is my interview with Courtney Summers!! 1. How did you come up with the idea for This is Not a Test?   Courtney S: I've always been a fan of zombies and I always knew I'd write a zombie book one day, so when the time came for me and my editor to decide what my fourth book would be about, I submitted two zombie related ideas to her. The pitch for THIS IS NOT A TEST was basically, "Teens stuck in a high school during the zombie apocalypse." She liked its potential, so she gave me the go ahead. As I was developing the idea, I thought a lot about the zombie movies I watch and enjoy and one thing I noticed is survival is usually hardwired into the main character from the get-go and then I started to wonder
