About this ebook

A party-loving sports figure is not an ideal parent in Alexis Brown's eyes. Too bad quarterback Dan Delito is the only parent her niece has. Alexis isn't in a position to raise the baby on her own, which means she needs Dan's help. And that means she'll have to make nice with the unsuitable man. Fine.

Much to Alexis's surprise, however, Dan is good with his daughter. He also knows he needs help, so he convinces Alexis to act as a nanny until he gets this parenting thing down. And soon their uneasy friendship changes into an unlikely romance. But can a football player, a lawyer and a baby really make a family?

About the author

It seems to me that I've been writing forever–high school essays which were hung on the classroom wall, short stories which finalled in a national contest, and family memoirs which are my mom's favourite–but none of those sweet successes compared with the thrill of having a novel accepted for publication. Linda's first Superromance, LOVE, MONEY AND AMANDA SHAW, was published in February 2001 while her second, TRUE-BLUE TEXAN, followed five months later. When she's not writing fiction, she teaches GED classes to homeless adults in downtown Houston. Her educational background includes a B.A. in Sociology and an M.S. in Education from Hunter College of the City University of New York. Linda and her husband, Michael, have three grown sons–all gorgeous and single at the moment. "We're looking forward to our oldest son, Andrew's wedding next spring and to welcoming lovely Pauline and four year old Aaron into our family."
