Blindside Beauty


Book Description

My football player ex cheated on me, so the last thing I need is to fall for another quarterback. Especially when he’s still mourning his baby mama who tragically passed away. After I accidentally plow my car into Nick Silva’s bumper, I can’t blame him for not hiring me to be his daughter’s nanny, but I’m still salty about it. I need the money to go on a trip of a lifetime, one my ex didn’t want me to take. The worst part is Nick just moved in next door. I’m sure he associates me with my dirtbag ex—his former teammate—so I try to avoid my neighbor whenever possible. But when his new babysitter gets locked out of the house, leaving Nick’s four-year-old alone inside, I attempt to rescue her by breaking in through a window. Unfortunately, I have a wardrobe malfunction and end up flashing my goodies to the whole neighborhood, Nick included. Because of my embarrassing heroics, Nick’s now convinced I’d be a great nanny. The trouble with football players is they’re very persuasive, so I agree to take the job but immediately regret it. Who needs to see a gorgeous, shirtless man jumping rope and doing push-ups in gray sweatpants? Who wants to watch a sexy, single dad snuggle his little girl and read her bedtime stories? Who enjoys working closely with a walking, talking thirst trap every single day? Fine. I do. I want all of that, but I already swore I’d never date another jock after the last one stomped all over my heart, so this bookworm needs to play it safe. But rumor has it Nick has a new girlfriend, which helps me maintain appropriate boundaries. Because I won’t be blindsided by another quarterback again. Blindside Beauty is an angsty nanny romance featuring an adorkable, accident-prone bookworm and a struggling, grumpy single dad. If you enjoy close proximity, enemies-to-lovers vibes, opposites attract, small towns, and college football, you’ll love this steamy final addition to the USA Today bestselling series Varsity Dads.
