I'm happy to take part in the release blitz celebrating "You Can't Kiss the Nanny, Brady Banks" by Piper Rayne, book #2 of the Kingsmen Football Stars series. Characters from the previous book make cameo appearances in this one, but it reads as a standalone.
Professional football player Brady Banks normally splits custody of his 5-year-old son with Theo's mom, Hannah, but she'll be working overseas for the next few months and Theo will be with Brady full-time. Knowing that he'll need help in her absence, Hannah suggests hiring a live-in nanny and offers to do the interviews on his behalf. Brady never expects her choice to be Violet Park, the woman with whom he had a one-night stand six months ago and hasn't been able to stop thinking about since. At the time, Violet was on the rebound from a failed engagement and refused to give Brady her number or even her real name. She had no idea that Brady was the client when she applied for the nanny job, but she needs the money and vows to make it work. Even though things are awkward at first, neither can deny the attraction that still flares between them. Will they be able to resist each other when they're living under the same roof?
This funny, sweet story was even better than the first book in the series. I really enjoyed the banter and intense chemistry between Violet and Brady, as well as the fact that he had such a positive co-parenting relationship with Theo's mom, Hannah. Theo himself was completely adorable, and I loved the way his attachment to Violet developed over the course of the story. She never tried to replace his mom or step on Hannah's toes, just acted as another person in his life who loved him.
I highly recommend this book for all contemporary/sports romance and romantic comedy fans and look forward to the next book in the series.

About "You Can't Kiss the Nanny, Brady Banks"
Brady Banks.
The Kingsmen’s best wide receiver.
Rich AF.
Hot as hell.
A stallion in the sack.
How do I know that last fact? I may have shared a one-night stand with him six months ago when I was rebounding from a broken heart.
I didn’t forget him, but I was done with him, until I discovered he’s the single dad of the boy I’ve been hired to nanny.
It’s near impossible to ignore my attraction to him now that we’re living under the same roof—but I have no choice.
First, this job pays well, and I need the money to move out of my parents’ spare room.
Second, he’s a public figure and there’s no room for me to get caught up in a scandal with him—I can’t disappoint my parents again.
Third, men like Brady were built to break hearts. I barely managed to piece mine back together after my failed engagement and Brady would do irreparable damage if I gave him the chance.
Let the longest three months of my life begin…
