Hot Shot by Kat Baxter

https://geni.us/HotShot-KB

A Hockey/Surprise Baby/Curvy Girl Romance

Charlotte

I should have said no when the charming, ridiculously hot, arguably too young for me stranger named Max propositioned me. At the time, no last names, no exchange of contact information, and no strings seemed to be just what I needed. But now, I’m facing motherhood all on my own. And I have no way to locate him. Until I do find him in the last place I expect: my brother’s hockey team.

Max

The only mistake I made the night I spent with Charlotte was not insisting she give me her number. I knew from the moment I saw her I wanted any and all strings she’d let me have. Now that I’ve found her again, I’m not letting her go. The fact that her brother is the captain of my new team isn’t the only obstacle in our way. The bigger problem will be convincing her that I’m ready to step up and be the man she needs.

BLURB:
Two fake names and a simple agreement—one night only, wherever the moonshine takes us.
I don’t have time for the cool, older guy with wavy hair, a smile that makes me tingle, and who leaves my sheets smelling of Irish Spring. Even more so after I discover he’s the man on the other side of my family’s corporate battle. He’s my rival.
My focus is on the distillery that’s been in my family for four generations and our newest product. That’s where it needs to stay.
Problem is, the longer he’s around, the longer I want him to stay…to explore this chemistry between us. To make this fling last forever.
Brandt owns a competing brand and might be after something other than a picket-fence forever. I need to keep my guard up.
Finding that balance between rivals and lovers won’t be easy.
Especially once our secrets are revealed.

CURRENTLY READING: 🥎 Just a Snap Decision 🥎 By Eliza Anne

➡️ AVAILABLE ON KINDLE UNLIMITED ⬅️

📚BLURB:

Bennett Carter has spent the last three years solidifying his name in the record books. As captain of the Akers University football team and the player with the best brand deals in the country, he seems to have everything he could ever want. Yet, as he enters his final year, his ambition burns brighter than ever. He knows he can do more—get more—if he only keeps his eye on the prize… and off his best friend’s insufferable spitfire of a sister.

Nora Sinclair never planned on transferring for her senior year. But after her ex-boyfriend’s betrayal cost her the university she’d committed her collegiate softball career to, she’s ready for a fresh start… without men bringing her down.

Unfortunately for both of them, the universe has other plans. In between their fantasy football league, and a crucial shared class, Nora soon finds herself forced into constant proximity with egotistical, self-absorbed Bennett Carter. Worse? He seems to hate her as much as she loathes him.

Although, the more Nora gets to know Bennett, the more she starts to wonder if the persona he presents is all for show… And the longer Bennett watches Nora, the more he begins to wonder if she might be the one girl worth gambling his dreams on.

After all, betting big may be the only way to find out: is this love? Or just a snap decision?

📚 Bite Series: Book 2

➡️ FREE TO READ ON KINDLE UNLIMITED ⬅️

BLURB:
Six months ago, I was taking whatever jobs I could stack on top of each other to claw my way up from the bottom. Then I was handed a business card that changed my life.

Bite: an underground blood agency matching consenting donors with vampires willing to pay a premium for live feedings.

As far as making money goes, it almost seemed too easy– so naturally, I couldn’t sign up fast enough.

Being a donor is a breeze. I get chauffeured to lavish penthouses, drink top shelf booze, and get a hit of vampire venom with every bite. But just as my life’s finally taking a turn for the better, of course something comes along to ruin it.

One of my clients starts stalking me, so I’m forced to seek protection in the form of an exclusive donor arrangement. I never expect the offer to come from a literal celebrity.

Elliott Faulkner, the Nobel prize-winning vampire scientist. He’s notoriously difficult to get along with, but I’m a pro at dealing with as****es, so I sign on the dotted line. How bad could it be?
When I move into his penthouse, things get weird fast. He’s intense, secretive, and he won’t even bite me.

I thought I’d be trading blood for protection. Turns out, he’s only interested in possession.

🪴About a year ago, I accidentally fell in love with houseplants. 😅

At first it felt weird to have a hobby or interest aside from books. Now I'm figuring out that it's not a bad thing to have multiple hobbies or interests besides just working all the damn time. Dare I say, healthy even lol. If you've known me for awhile, you know that's a big step for me.

Thought I'd do an appreciation post of sorts to some of my plants. I started out with 3 (thanks Allison Evans 🤣) and now have over 30, I think.

💭 are you a plant person or what are your hobbies/ interests besides reading?
