Book excerpt: A woman plays house with her one-night stand in a “passionate romance, fulfilling family drama . . . [and] sexy, touching read” from a USA Today bestseller (Kirkus Reviews). As live-in tutor to a headstrong teen, Shay Walker has her hands full—and the girl’s absentee father doesn’t help matters, either. All Shay wants is to let loose and indulge in a birthday fling with the hottest stranger who’s ever caught her eye. But her one-night stand turns out to be Jace Jennings, her student’s long-distance dad—and now he’s taking up residence—at his lakeside estate and in Shay’s most secret fantasies. Jace isn’t exactly a family man, but he’s determined to do his best by his daughter—and the first step is forgetting how hot he is for her teacher. But close proximity and their heated connection keeps Shay at the forefront of his mind—even as it’s obvious she holds her heart in check. So does Jace. Until they both realize that losing control just might mean finding forever.

Download or read book Bad Motherpuckers Volume One written by Lili Valente and published by Self Taught Ninja. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 691 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three HOT Standalone hockey rom coms including… HOT AS PUCK The things I want to do to my sweet, kindergarten-teaching, mitten-crocheting best friend Libby Collins are ten different kinds of wrong. Maybe twenty. But I'm a firm believer in teaching by example, and by the end of our first sex lesson, we've graduated to a hands on approach to her education: my hands all over her, her hands all over me, and her hot mouth melting beneath mine as I prove to her there isn't a damned thing wrong with the way she kisses. Give me a month, and I'll transform Libby from wall flower to wall banger, and ensure she's confident enough to seduce any guy she wants. Problem is... the only guy I want her seducing is me. SEXY MOTHERPUCKER 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. PUCK AHOLIC I hate my new roommate… And I want to do dirty, delicious things to her in that swing she installed that we both know has nothing to do with aerial yoga. Neither of which is good, considering Diana Daniels is my NHL team captain's little sister, and he will break my face if I'm not a perfect gentleman. I try to be. Really, I do. But Diana has all sorts of Jedi mind tricks to make a man obsessed with getting her into bed, and I'm not gonna lie--I fall for every single one of them. Especially the one where she warns me not to fall for her.

In my quest I will be periodically called upon to pull into a service station to rebalance and realign myself and then gas up before proceeding. There will be times when I push myself to exhaustion, on the brink of a complete breakdown, only to find a saving fork in the road. When faced with adversity will I choose flight, fight, freeze or something else? Youll need to read to find out.
