About this eBook

Sparks fly when Miss Straight Arrow meets Sergeant Sexy but neither can avoid the flame. An emotional second-chance novel from a RITA® Award winning author!

Matt Simmons is over Army doctors poking him. But when his sister won’t stop nagging him to see their old babysitter, now a sought-after physical therapist, he gives in just to get some peace. He’s not used to asking for help but he won’t qualify for the Special Forces unless he does something drastic. Like calling in a favor from the girl he used to play hide-and-go-seek with.  

Penny is finally putting down roots after a lifetime of moving around. She’s got everything she wants, except the settled suburban life she longs for. All she needs is the perfect guy, which means NO military men. 

When Matt realizes that his old babysitter is h-o-t, he’s suddenly seeing the benefits of therapy. But Penny still sees him as the bratty kid she used to babysit. 

Suddenly he has a new mission in life… 

He's the Man is a steamy age-gap contemporary romance. Even though all the books in this small town romance series can be read as standalones, you will absolutely love getting to know each brother in the Alexander family. For fans of Meghan Quinn, Claire Kingsley and Laura Pavlov, this is the perfect beach read to curl up with this weekend!

Ratings and reviews

Good, strong leads in the story! I love that the Alexanders are such a loving family who look out for their own, whether by birth or not. At times it was easy to get confused on the many different family members, though.

Full of love, angst, and steamy foreplay. I am in love with Matt, i say yes to Sergeant Sexy. I want to be part of the Alexander clan.

Just wished the babysitter history was changed to "a young playmate of Mara's" maybe. Otherwise, Penny would be, what, 5 yrs older than Matt? Just saying.
