A hot, hilarious Sexy Single Dad romance…Brendan Daniels is the sexiest man alive. The captain of the Badger’s NHL team is also clever, kind, funny, and was my good friend…until we cruised out of the friend zone one weekend with a red-hot fling. Come Monday morning, I wanted to keep riding the Big O train to happy town, but Brendan wanted someone who was “stepmom” material.A.K.A, not me, … material.
A.K.A, not me, apparently.
The problem? I’m crazy in love with him and his daughter. So when he asks me to be his pretend girlfriend for a long weekend with his former in-laws, I say yes. We’re still friends, after all, and friends don’t let friends fake it alone.
***
Laura Collins is the last woman I should be thinking about taking in the back seat of my car, in the woods behind my in-laws’ house, or in a hotel room where we’re sharing one very small, very squeaky bed.
I need a steady, stable influence for my daughter, not a fling with this too wild, too young, too impulsive red head. So what if she’s beautiful and intense and passionate and has the biggest heart I’ve ever known?
I don’t want to fall in love. I really don’t. The whole “pretend girlfriend” thing was supposed to solve my problems, buy me a little more time.
But when it comes to Laura?
Hell, maybe I’m just not cut out for faking it.

A pucking awesome romp!…Brendan and Laura’s story will have you swooning and fanning yourself all night long!
Sexy Motherpucker by Lili Valente is the second standalone romance in her Bad Motherpuckers series. This is Brendan and Laura’s story. Brendan is captain of the hockey team and a single dad. Laura is the publicist for the hockey team.
Having bore witness, as a reader, to their one weekend hook up that took place before the story of Justin and Libby (Hot as Puck), we see the chemistry these two have. Unfortunately, Brendan shuts things down and they manage to retain a barely there level of friendship. If it wasn’t for Brendan’s daughter, Chloe, and Laura’s heartfelt love for the child, they would barely even have that. Of course, a curveball is thrown into Brendan’s life and he finds himself eating crow and asking, nay begging, for a favor from Laura. Pretend to be in a relationship with him so his in-laws stay off his back about Chloe’s well-being. Problem – they are both still so secretly attracted to one another you know their plan is going sideways. Trust me, it is the most awesome thing to watch (read).
Loved it – as always. Lili Valente is a must-read author for me and again, no exception here! Enjoy!
Hot, Steamy and Romantic. Love this series.
Sexy Motherpucker is the second book in the Bad Motherpuckers series by one of my favorite authors. I know when I open a Book by Lili Valente, I will be in for a ride. It could be a sexy and light ride, a filthy twisted dark ride or something in between. This series has the perfect blend of sexy, fun, and filthy talk. If you read Hot as Puck then you might remember the cranky but sexy single dad Libby’s older sister Lauren. I knew something was brewing between these two…
Brendan and Laura had one wild weekend together full of orgasms, talks, and long walks on the beach. Then it was over. Brendan walked away. He wasn’t ready for what he knew Laura wanted and needed. A relationship. It wasn’t just him he had to think about. He had to think about his daughter Chloe too. He lost his wife three years ago and since then it’s only been him and Chloe. After his weekend with Laura he was scared. Scared of what could be. Also scared of what could happen if it didn’t work out. So they went back to being friends. Awkward friends but still friends. And then he asks her for a huge favor. One that could change everything. To be his fake girlfriend. For one weekend. But he also has other plans…
Laura was already halfway in love with the cranky, sexy, father of her favorite little girl when he asked for this ridiculous favor. She knew it was going to be weird. But they are friends and she would do anything for him and Chloe. Even if he breaks her heart all over again. It’s been four months since the first time around but it’s still fresh especially when they see each other almost daily and she looks into Chloe’s eyes. Ones like her daddy’s. If she is going to get through this weekend, then she has to give a performance of a lifetime. To act like a perfect girlfriend while also acting like she is over him. It’s only a few nights, how hard can it be? Very, very difficult especially when Brendan has plans of torturing her with his sexiness, sweetness, and mixed signals. Can they get on the same page before it’s too late?
I love Brendan, Laura, and Chloe! Brendan and Laura might have some obstacles to conquer but one thing is for sure…they both love Chloe like crazy! She is not a girl to be in the background. She is full of energy, sassiness, and road-trip bingo. She is one of my favorite little ones. And Brendan is one amazing single dad to her. They have fun but he will put the hammer down when he needs to. Anyway…back to this whole love thing. Brendan and Lauren’s chemistry is both beautiful and beyond hot. Their banter is fun. And the connection between all three of them is magical. Even if Brendan has a big butt (Inside the book humor).
Overall…Lili scored another goal with this one! It’s beautiful, hot as hell, and funny as fuck. It’s the perfect blend really. A wonderful addition to the series. I can’t wait for the next book.
Quotes:
There it is again—that loving, devoted daddy side of Brendan that makes my ovaries explode. I am helpless against it.
“Because I believe in pursuing excellence in all things,” I say, biting my lip as his grip on my wrists tightens. “Or at least all the things that matter.”
“I’m not ready to be this close to your parents.”
Brendan Daniels is captain of the Badger’s NHL team, single dad, and the sexiest man Laura Collins has ever seen. When Brendan needs a fake girlfriend Laura steps up to the plate. These two fight their attraction to each other but love will find a way.
I enjoyed this book. It was a nice, sweet, and quick sports romance. Brendan was a great hockey player, an awesome dad, and a really great character. There needs to be more men like him in the world. Laura was smart, brave, funny, and scared of the future, which I can relate too. These two had a steamy relationship that also had a lot of baggage that needed to be worked out before they got their HEA. I really enjoyed it.
Overall, I quite enjoyed this one which was surprising because I DNF the first book due to being bored by it. I will be reading the next book to see Diana find herself a man.
Sexy Single Hockey Player Dad FTW!
I started the Bad Motherpuckers series this weekend. After finishing Hot as Puck, I just had to continue and listen to this one. We met Brendan & Laura already. Already friends, they may have taken things further by having a hot weekend fling. But the course of true love never did run smooth and Brendan sticks his foot in it big time.
Laura is feisty, protective, loving, hilarious, and sexy as all get out. Brendan is a fantastic father, dealing with his daughter all by himself in the years since his wife died. He’s sexy, broody, charming, witty, and has his head up his @$$.
They’ve been civil since that weekend. Laura helps out with and adores his daughter, Chloe. And because of Chloe, Brendan asks Laura if she’d help him out over Thanksgiving by joining them and pretending to be his girlfriend.
And so begin that embarrassing, hot, scary, heartwarming, and hilarious moments that lead us down that bumpy path to their HEA.
I love the fake relationship trope. The frenemies to lovers vibe. His daughter, who is adorable and funny. Their family and friends. There is all sorts of goodness.
The narration was very enjoyable. Definitely enjoyed Summer and Tyler’s performances.

Sexy Motherpucker is a fun romcom that is sweet and entertaining and a quick listen. Popping in at just over 6 hours I was able to listen to it at work while doing other stuff. I like the characters that Lili Valente created for this series. Sexy Motherpucker was often times amusing and sometimes emotional. Lili Valente is an amazing writer and I cannot wait to see what comes next.
I love a good hockey player’s story. Especially such fun-filled outside the rink times.
I enjoyed this series also and have read a few of the books in it. A worthy pick-up for anyone that enjoys hockey romances.
A nice story. Loved the twist to a traditional ending.
I enjoyed this story so much!
Meet Laura, works for the Badgers, and is friends with Brendan, single dad and player on the team. He’s always grumpy giving her a hard time about PR work for the Badgers. After one hot weekend together, Brendan says he can’t do this, and walks away. Then months later he needs her help, with his daughter, who’s a trip by the way!
Will they fall down the rabbit hole again and be together, or has Laura built her walls up so far that he will never get past them?
Read along and enjoy their story as it unfolds! 5 hockey pucks for this one!!

This was an absolute Turner could not put it down funny steamy hot sex since all rolled into one .
I loved reading this book, even when I could feel her pain. Love and loss and love again…a great story.
