Someone to Stay (Skylark #5)

PIPER:
NFL superstar Felix Barlowe was never supposed to be the one.

He’s my brother-in-law’s brother and my nemesis--until one unforgettable night changed everything. I thought it would get him out of my system, not leave me with a secret.

I’m hiding out in a secluded cabin, pregnant and panicking, when Felix shows up with a two-year-old and no idea how everything is about to change. So I do something reckless and offer to help as his temporary nanny.

It seems like an easy way to buy myself time. But watching him bake sourdough at dawn and read bedtime stories on repeat, not to mention those late-night kisses, I start to fall for him in a way I never saw coming.

Felix Barlowe thinks he’s not built for forever. I think he might be perfect for me.

FELIX:
Piper Hart has hated me from day one. She’s all spark and sass and completely immune to my charm. But now she’s helping with a little girl I never expected to raise, and I can’t seem to get the night she spent in my arms out of my mind.

I’ve failed at love three times--definitely not relationship material. But Piper makes me want to believe again.

And when I discover her secret, I’ll do whatever it takes to prove I’m not a man who leaves. I’m the one who stays.
