Synopsis

Hiring the woman who wrecked me to nanny the kid I just found out I have is a dumb idea. Getting naked with her in the back of my truck is even dumber. But old habits die hard. Amelia Fox was my high school sweetheart, the girl who broke my heart and nearly ended my football career nine years ago. It was all I could do to put one foot in front of the other, much less make a comeback. But I did come back. And I’m not about to let go of everything I fought for just because my world is imploding again. When I find out I’m the father of a two-year-old boy, I’m ready to start my final season in the pros. It’s my last chance to nab the championship I promised my dad I’d win before he died. Enter Amelia: teacher, toddler whisperer, and—oh yeah—my ex-girlfriend. We haven’t spoken in almost a decade, but I’m desperate, and she’s looking for a job. I need to focus, which means I need help with this kid. Which means I need her. The arrangement works until one night of bad decisions and great sex threatens to ruin everything. Can we make it work this time around? Or is she just another bad habit I need to break before she breaks me? SOUTHERN PLAYBOY is a full length, standalone novel.

Reviews

I have followed Jessica Peterson’s career from the very beginning and am a big fan of her swoon-worthy heroes and love of small towns. Jessica’s writing is always top notch, and I LOVE the Beauregard family and their life in the beautiful Great Smokey Mountains of North Carolina where they run a hig......more

Goodreads review by Vilma

*3.5 stars Southern Playboy is the fourth standalone book in the North Carolina Highlands series (apparently nowadays I seem to jump right into series instead of starting from the beginning...) and the story centers around the fourth Beauregard sibling, Rhett. The tropes of the story are boss/nanny......more

Goodreads review by Chelsea

Second chance, single dad, boss/nanny, sports romance alert! Phew did I cover all the main tropes there? This book is pretty much my ideal type of contemporary romance. Small town feels but big scope. Southern Playboy starts out with our two main characters really going through it. Rhett is an NFL p......more

The author writes vulnerable men like no other. They are strong guys, they can even be a touch alpha male, but they also have weaknesses that make them more human, and they aren’t afraid to cry. Rhett was like that, and though he could be a douche at times, he was also determined–when in the right s......more

We're chasing the wild, because neither of us knows if-when-the chase is going to end. Southern Playboy is another spectacular addition to Peterson's North Carolina Highlands series! Rhett and Amelia's unconvential journey from ex teenage flames to nanny/boss to happy ever after is heart warming and......more
