Billy’s not my baby daddy, but he doesn’t mind pretending to be…
I’m a Division 1 cheerleader with hopes of becoming a sports broadcaster. None of my plans for college include getting knocked up by a cheating ex who just got engaged to another girl.
When my father finds out I’m pregnant, he goes ballistic. That’s when my BFF, bad boy Billy Babcock, comes to my rescue and agrees to “take responsibility.”
Billy and I solidify our contract on a napkin—he’ll pretend to be my baby’s father, and I’ll help him clean up his image. The only problem is my father, the football coach, hates Billy. He warned me off dating players a long time ago, and he thinks Billy’s the biggest player out there.
Now that we’re in a “relationship,” Billy thinks we should spend some quality naked time together, but I’m worried about crossing that line. Because athletic guys with big muscles, intricate tattoos, and sexy smirks are my biggest weakness, and Billy ticks off all those boxes.
Can my football player “boyfriend” walk the straight and narrow for me?
Or did I just get handed off from one heartbreaker to another?
Heartbreaker Handoff is an angsty, friends-to-lovers, forbidden romance featuring a sassy cheerleader, who’s about to be a single mother, and a criminally charming football player determined to prove he’s the man for her, one sizzling kiss at a time. Heartbreaker Handoff is a dual POV standalone in the USA Today-bestselling series Varsity Dads.
Tallulah has tried to keep her parent’s record shop open after their passing, but she has realized that it is no longer possible so she decides to plan a closing event that will honor both the store and her parents. When her brother arrives, he brings along his friend Jensen who will show her a very different future.
Jensen is part of the same MC as Tallulah’s brother, and it will only take one look for him to realize that he and Tallulah belong together. He is going to show her that the closing of the record store isn’t an ending but the beginning of a life with him.
The feelings between them are undeniable and Jensen is all in and not only is he there for Tallulah through a difficult time in her life but he isn’t about to let anyone stand in their way of being together.
