Release Date: January 19th 2021
Series: Frisky Business #3
Pages: 201
Genres: Romance, Contemporary
A sexy, single dad standalone romance coming soon from New York Times bestselling author Kendall Ryan.
Life threw me a curveball. An adorable eight-pound, four-ounce curveball with her mother’s eyes and my dark hair. I’d like to think my single-dad game is strong, but honestly? I’ve been struggling a little.
When a beautiful young woman moves in next door and offers to give me a hand, I jump at the chance to hire her as a nanny. Jessa is amazing with my daughter. She’s also patient, kind, and way too pretty.
The number one rule of hiring a nanny? Don’t bed the nanny.
It’s a rule I intend to keep.
But as the days pass, I begin to realize how much my life is missing. Companionship. Romance. Intimacy. When I discover my heart has space for one more female, it’s a lost cause, another curveball. The hot-as-hell nanny is leaving soon for a mission trip to Central America. No sense in letting myself fantasize about Jessa being a permanent part of my life.
The closer we get, the more difficult it becomes to keep my feelings in check, because my heart won’t listen. And neither will my libido.
Well, you know what they say. Rules are meant to be broken . . .
My Review:
Connor Blake might run a successful business, but his life completely changed the minute he found out that he was going to be a dad. Now that his bachelor lifestyle is over, he has to figure out fatherhood on his own. But his adorable baby girl, Marley, makes it all worth it no matter how much he is struggling. So when he meets his new neighbor and sees how good she is with Marley, he offers her to be her nanny. Jessa is knowledgeable, patient and caring towards Marley and he couldn’t be happier to have her. Yet, the more time she spends with them the more he is starting to develop feelings for her. Connor initially hired her to help out with Marley, but Jessa became so much more, if only he could keep her for good.
Jessa never expected to get hired as a nanny on her first day in the neighborhood, but Marley completely stole her heart and she just knew that the little girl needed her. That’s not to say that Marley’s dad didn’t, no matter how much she has tired to keep things professional between them their immediate connection keeps pulling them together. Even though she is starting to develop feeling for him, she knows that they can’t go any further as she has an assignment in Central America with a nonprofit organization all lined up. In the very little time that she has spent with Marley and Connor, she has grown to be part of their lives and she wonders if leaving them behind is worth it or not.
I loved The Stud Next Door, Kendall Ryan nailed the single dad trope in this story. The characters are relatable and their connection is instant right away. Jessa comes into Connor’s life as he is transitioning from being a total bachelor to full-time dad. He is new to everything and he is overwhelmed. But she can see that he truly loves his baby girl and that’s what seals the deal for her. The appearance from his friends also make the story that much more enjoyable to read. They truly have his back and accept Jessa right away. The story is told in Dual POV, it’s sweet, steamy and the ending is perfect for the characters. I highly recommend checking out this book as well as the rest of the series! :)
