From #1 New York Times bestselling author Julie Murphy and USA Today bestselling author Sierra Simone comes a brand-new college town raunch-com about a sexy single dad professor and a feisty law school grad turned nanny in this steamy tale of Academic Affairs… Now available as an audiobook, this lively and entertaining listen features dual narration by Connor Crais and Victoria Connolly, with Teddy Hamilton adding humorous interjections that bring warmth, wit, and charm to this spicy story.

Class is in session.

Maddie Kowalczk is ready to be a bad girl. When the rookie lecturer lands at Astra University, she’s looking to start fresh after a messy breakup. But her first night in town takes a twist when she bumps into Bram Loe—a reserved but incredibly handsome single dad she (not so accidentally) stole a parking spot from earlier that day. The unspoken chemistry as he locks eyes with her while she gets a birthday spanking at a local bar is hotter than a Bunsen burner at full flame.

Bram is looking for a break from his hectic life as an ecology professor and dad to rambunctious twins and a busy teenager. So when his college friend’s divorce celebration brings him face-to-face with the same delectable brat who stole his parking spot, he’s ready for a night to remember. But the next morning, Bram’s world turns upside down (and that’s not just the hangover talking). His new nanny? None other than Maddie, who also happens to be the new poli-sci adjunct at the university where he teaches.

Maddie is desperate and broke, so when Bram offers her a raise and the chance to set some ground rules, she can’t say no. As the two settle into their new roles, the normally unruffled Bram finds that no one riles him up like Maddie does, which is a problem when every argument feels like foreplay. Of course, Bram is an educator first and foremost, and he very quickly finds he can’t resist the temptation of instructing Maddie in the fundamentals of being a good girl.

And it turns out Maddie’s a hands-on learner…

Just as expected for this dynamic duo writing fun, quirky, yet sexy as hell romance novels?! Love all the subtle LFK references; made me feel like I was back in the Hill!
Plant Daddy is one of my new favorite book boyfriends—Nerdy, sad mushy heart, sexy as hell- can take direction like the best of them—with love to give the world! Julie and Sierra can’t do wrong in my eyes! 5 stars, hands down.

I read the arc of this before release and absolutely LOVED it. I requested it thinking it would be a cute fun age gap romance but it is so much heavier and really dove into the hurt and rejection felt through situationships. Definitely more emotional than I was expecting. Decided I had to buy it and listen as well for a reread because…Connor Crais.

Better the second time
