Goalie, Martin "Brick" Bricker’s playboy social life comes to a halt when his five-year-old daughter, that he didn’t know he had, is left at his doorstep. He hires nanny, Amelia Stacey, to help take care of her. He puts the moves on Amelia, but she’s blocking all his shots. This contemporary sports romance is suitable for adults. At first, I wasn’t crazy about Brick. I liked him more as the story progressed. I appreciated that he realized when he was being a jerk. Deep down, he is a good guy who guards his heart. I like Amelia. She is hardworking and great with kids. I felt bad about the things she went through. They are both broken and help each other become whole. Macy is a cute kid. My heart went out to her and all her loss. I like how her relationship evolved with Amelia and her dad. I enjoyed the plot. It was believable and heartfelt. There were interesting twists. The characters grew and overcame pertinent obstacles. There were many humorous scenes. One of my favorites was when Brick’s teammate, Rush, was babysitting Macy. I enjoyed the ending; it felt well resolved. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
WANTED: Single dad needs nanny--In more ways than one. Martin "Brick" Bricker is living the good life. He's playing the sport he loves, has all the women he can handle, and parties like a rock star. At twenty-six, he has no interest in slowing down or taking anything seriously -except hockey, of course.Then a knock at his door changes everything. Suddenly he's the single father to a five-year-old daughter he didn't know he had, and he's trading his playboy ways for Barbies. Amelia Stacey struggles to make ends meet and juggles her day-care job with a full load of college classes. When she's offered a temporary, two-week nanny position making more money than she imagines, she jumps at the chance. Before she knows it, she's in over her head, not just with her five-year-old charge but with the girl's hot single father. Brick always goes after what he wants, and he wants Amelia. Only responsible Amelia doesn't want anything to do with the party boy. Struggling with fatherhood and his unexplainable attraction to his nanny, Brick has to figure out where his daughter and Amelia fit into his life. If they fit at all. But one thing's for sure: Brick can't block this shot straight to his heart. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Enter temporary nanny, Amelia Stacey. A woman with secrets of her own. She has a lot of love to give and no one to share it with. Clueless father and his newly acquired spitfire of a daughter, could be the cure for that. Stories where grown men are brought to their knees by a child that they never knew they wanted and turns out can't live without are my Kryptonite. That inner quality of innocence and vulnerability is more prevalent. Adding a child changes the dynamic of a love story. Gives it a depth that is at times lacking in romance. Ms. Davenport understood that. (
