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 the hot-as-sin older man 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 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 in to sizzling-hot temptation. He’s got kids, and that makes the stakes higher. But if we can push past the obstacles, the sparks between us could turn into red hot flames.

Red Hot Stakes is a steamy romance novel with no cheating and a happy ending.
