About THE OVERTIME KISS:
Just what every bride dreams of—running straight from her cheating fiancé into the arms of a hot hockey star… and then getting hired as his kids’ nanny.
Tyler Falcon is protective, flirtatious…and frustratingly responsible. We almost did something reckless when he found me alone in my wedding dress, and I blurted out all the things I’d never truly experienced.
Now, the sexy single dad is saving me again with a job I desperately need—and a promise to never mention The Night of 1001 Confessions.
I live in his house. Take care of his kids. Pretend I don’t notice his heated gaze lingering on me after they fall asleep.
Until one night, the tension snaps.
Now we have a deal. Five lessons in seduction. No strings attached.
But he’s not just good in bed. He spoils me with thoughtful gifts and supports my dreams. For the first time, I feel like I belong.
Except…this was never meant to last. I’m his employee. He has kids to protect. And neither of us can afford to make a mistake.
The more nights we spend tangled up together though, the harder it is to pretend it’s just physical. Because I’m not only falling for my boss—I’m falling for the man whose kids have stolen my heart.
Tropes: single dad/nanny, runaway bride, forced proximity, spicy lessons, she’s his daughter’s skating coach, confession of all secrets, love notes, found family

READ THE EXCERPT:
Tyler
“Are you a troublemaker, Tyler?”
“Maybe I was. Back in the day,” I say.
Her lips shift in amusement. “Think you’ve still got it in you?”
“Those are fighting words.” I drum my fingers on the counter. “How about trouble in the form of a spicy margarita? Can you handle the heat?”
Her smile falters for just a second, as if I’d asked about more than a drink. “I don’t even know.”
Her blue eyes flicker with something deeper—with uncertainty, maybe, or a vulnerability she’s trying to hide. Or possibly…interest. Since for a moment her gaze lingers on me, roams over me, like she’s trying to figure something out.
Like what she wants me to do to her tonight?
What the f*&k?
That is not a thought I should be entertaining. Too bad my lust-struck mind is already running away with the image, imagining what could have been if she wasn’t wearing that damn ring. Not today, brain. Stand down.
“Let’s find out,” I say, as I resume the role of runaway-bride wingman. I change her order, and when the bartender returns with the margarita, we toast again, her with her cocktail, me with my lager, which—as Ike promised—is incredibly good.
“To the opposite of today.”
“The opposite,” she echoes, her gaze…curious. But I don’t want to read into it even though I want to read everything into it.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
It’s been a while since I’ve read something by Lauren Blakely, and I am so glad I got to read and listen to The Overtime Kiss! Tyler and Sabrina’s story was so charming, full of heart, and lots of big emotions.
After calling out her fiancé for cheating (at the altar! badass!) and walking out on her wedding, Sabrina ends up at a bar and runs into Tyler, the dad of one of her figure skating students. Although he’s long had a bit of a crush on Sabrina, he puts his feelings aside for her that night since her life pretty much imploded and just offers her comfort and friendship. A week later, Tyler is ready to ask her out, but a humiliated Sabrina asks if they can pretend The Night of 1001 Confessions never happened. Then, when Sabrina ends up moving into Tyler’s house to be his kids’ new nanny, it becomes harder and harder for both of them to ignore their chemistry… and they agree to cross off a few items from Sabrina’s sex bucket list.
This story gets really spicy at times, but there’s such a genuine connection between the characters that it did not feel like seggs just for the sake of having it on the page. Tyler and Sabrina really connect on a deep level; they both have complicated relationships with their fathers, and that comes into play later on when they break up because of miscommunication and assumptions. Tyler’s Grand Gesture to win Sabrina back was so sweet — and it came complete with going off on her jerk of an ex.
Teddy Hamilton is hands-down my favorite narrator, and I absolutely adored how he portrayed Tyler in this book. From the sexy growls to the vulnerable moments with Sabrina, he captured all the emotions. As well, Brooke Bloomingdale did a great job with playing Sabrina and all her neurotic perfectionism, and her hurt and anger over how poorly her father and ex-fiance treat her.
I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
