USA Today bestselling author Lex Martin delivers a swoony, single dad romance about a college football player and the fake girlfriend he knows he should resist.
Football is one hundred percent the focus of my life—until a squawking toddler, with a temper to rival my own, lands in my lap and flips my life upside down.
I’ll never be Dad of the Year. Anyone will tell you that. Except maybe Sienna, my sister’s former roommate, who somehow manages to make my broody ass laugh and sees something in me no one else does.
When Sienna offers to let me and my little princess move in with her, I’m not sure if it’s to help or because she wants revenge on my teammate and long-time rival, who broke her heart.
Either way, I’m game. Because I need to get my ex off my back, and Sienna doesn’t mind pretending to be my girlfriend.
Only neither of us is ready for the sparks that fly between us or the consequences when they do.
Lex Martin is the USA Today bestselling author of the Texas Nights series (Reckless/Shameless) and the Dearest series. She writes contemporary romances, the sexy kind with lotsa angst, a whole lotta kissing, and the hot happily ever afters. A former high school English teacher and freelance journalist, she’s lived all over the country but currently resides in her hometown of San Antonio with her husband and twin daughters.
Football players, university drama and in between Ben who found out he’s a father. Added in the mix his best friend’s sister, who is not immune to her charms we’re all set!
Ben has already a lot on his plate at the moment until he’s been involved into Sienna’s drama and she otherwise. Definitely a recipe for disaster but in reality it worked perfectly. So smooth and natural.
I adored the main characters; Sienna and Ben who went through this together, managing to make their relationship grow so naturally by communicating and being supportive of each other. Both learn a lot through this experience and make it their own way, both as individuals and as a couple. Compelling and nuanced characters that really captured my attention.
I loved their interactions with Ben’s daughter… all the swoons!
I have to say that part of the drama drove me crazy but still I love how they reacted throughout the whole thing. They were true to themselves, not letting the others ruin what they have.
It’s passionate, sweet, swoony and smoking hot! I enjoyed reading it. I loved their deep connection and complicity. A beautiful story full of charm, wit and energy with a hint of angst.
Ben… the freaking sigh and I have to say that I have a crush on Sienna.
