A sexy, small town, grumpy sunshine, single dad, sports romance from USA Today Bestselling Author Willow Aster
I fell in love with his little girl first.
From the moment nine-year-old Becca Fox and I hugged, it was like we’d known each other forever. Precocious, sweet, and kind, I just knew this little girl was exceptional. Her dad, though? Not so much.
Bowie Fox checks every box in the looks department—rugged, intense, and the kind of man who makes you forget how to breathe—but his personality? About as warm as a snowstorm.
That is, until we’re seated together at his best friend’s wedding, and then…we dance.
For hours.
Beneath that gruff and hard exterior, I catch glimpses of a man who wants to let loose and enjoy life.
After the wedding, when a hotel mixup leaves me without a room and stranded in Landmark Mountain, Bowie invites me to stay in his room. In his bed.
It’s innocent at first. Until it’s not. A sizzling one-night stand for the books. Then I wake up alone and when I see him at breakfast, he is as distant as ever.
Bowie lets me know his life revolves around Becca, his teammates, and football. He makes it perfectly clear that there is no room for anyone else—especially the bubbly coach of his daughter.
As much as our paths keep crossing, I know the broody linebacker isn’t ever planning on falling for me, but when I find out I am pregnant—I wonder, Can he fall for us?
Wicked Love is book four in The Single Dad Playbook series. Each book can be read as a standalone.
NOTE TO READERS

Hi! I’m glad you’re here. Thanks for picking up this book.
If you’re new to my books or to this series, I’m especially excited for you to meet the characters in this book. Becca, the hero’s little girl, has Down Syndrome, and because the level of function across all aspects of life for individuals with Down Syndrome is varied, there are many ways I could have portrayed her, especially regarding her level of communication. Please know that I tried to give the utmost care to research properly to make the story as authentic as possible. Beyond the friends in my life who have Down Syndrome, I also had a sensitivity reader who is an occupational therapist, and any mistakes I made are mine and not theirs.
And, last but not least, it is the honor of my lifetime that Lily D. Moore agreed to read the part of Becca in the audiobook. Thank you so very much, Lily!
XO,
Willow
