The first time I meet single dad Luke Pearson, his children beg him to marry me. Can you imagine anything more awkward?Luke’s not looking for a wife, but as an author, he does need help. I jump at the chance to work for him as a combination research assistant and nanny. The kids and I get along great, but Luke’s harder to read.One moment his eyes sweep over my curvy body, a wicked grin on his … curvy body, a wicked grin on his handsome face. The next moment, he’s pulling back. He’s used to calling the shots, and even though he wants me, it takes him a while to realize how much he needs me.
I understand his reluctance to give into sizzling-hot temptation. He’s got kids, and that makes the stakes higher. But if we can push past the obstacles, I think the sparks between us could turn into a red hot flame.
Red Hot Stakes is a steamy romance novel with no cheating and a happy ending.

The girls are back and it is FINALLY Gabi’s turn. Gabi who is kind of a lost soul at this point finds herself making friends with a couple of kids at a local park. After an accident with one of the kids Luke realizes he needs more of a presence with his kids all the time. The full time writer/stay at home dad tries to give the kids their space but realizes once he might loose them that he needs to find them someone to watch them and help him with his writing. Gabi having been working a series of temporary jobs volunteers to help out until she finds something she truly wants to do. As time passes they realize that this working friendship is turning out to be so much more but Luke really doesn’t want to admit it to himself. After a bad divorce and being the sole provider it is hard for him to open up and let go of the hold he has had for so long on his family but if anyone can break him out of his day to day it is Gabi.
Loved the story and the HEA to go along with it now I anxiously wait for Liz’s story!

Oh how I love single dad romance books! Nothing hotter than a sexy man with a smaller child and in this story, it’s twins!!
Gabi got invited to a set of twins party and accepted. She thought it would be fun and it meant a lot to the kids. However, what she didn’t expect was their dad being so hot!! On the flip side, Luke didn’t expect to open the door for guests at his kids birthday party and find a breathtaking woman with curves in all the right places standing there. And then the story took off!!
I loved the characters in this book, they were so “real life” and that makes a story even better, for me! Their chemistry was so electrical and it was interesting to watch it slowly progress, even though they tried to fight it.
I really liked this single dad romance. Gabi is invited to the twin’s birthday party and their father, Luke is surprised that Gabi isn’t one of the twin’s peers. Luke offers her a job as a nanny/personal assistance and as they spend time together, sparks fly. Will they twins get their birthday wish? Fast-paced read with a great story and characters with plenty of depth and great chemistry. I really liked it.
This is a sweet romance between older man/single father and single, younger woman who befriends the man’s twins at the park.
The characters are strong and likable and the story flows fluidly.
The author does a great job building the romance and giving them a hot and steamy chemistry, involving the twins with their plans for her to be their mom.

In the last book, Luke’s twins proposed to Gabi when she had a meal at their place. Both she and Luke tried to just skate over it. Afterwards, out of the blue, Luke offers Gabi a job as an assistant to him researching for his book. Also as nanny to the twins and cooking for them all. But their feelings get in the way and everything falls apart.
It is a shame about all of the errors – incorrect names included – but hopefully it will be edited thoroughly before publishing.
Love this one. Older men and a younger woman. A story of friendship between her and his kids. When she meets their dad there is an attraction. But it is not a smooth road to HEA when there is kids involved and one of them is not sure he wants a relationship. It is enjoyable to see how they navigate through these obstacles. It is exciting and heartwarming, I voluntarily read a copy of this one.
Yep. Children and animals. One way or another, they’re going to steal the show. I had already started to fall in love with Gabi in the earlier books, but Ava and Brandon stole my heart. Luke is everything alpha. Including the tendency to think he’s always right, even when he’s chewing on shoe leather after putting his foot in his mouth (again). This story is so steamy and sweet. The chemistry between Gabi and Luke is off the charts, and the way they look out for each other and the twins is precious. I can’t wait to read more about he occupants of the Red Hot House.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through Booksprout.
This was a cute and steamy story. I really loved the chaeacters, especially the twins. It was well written and fun to read. I enjoyed that the main lady was trying to find her place in life, I totally feel that. While this was a longer story then most in this series, I thought it was the right length to story ratio. I would gave liked to kick the man rear once or twice, but fun. I didn’t fel any connection to the characters but it was nice to read about them.
