When it was announced this book I was super excited! The forbidden relationship, nanny/boss always gets my attention, add the sports romance trope? I’m a goner. And the wait definitely paid off, because Brady Banks and his family are definitely a must. I swear to everything that I’m not ready to say bye to this family, I hope someday in the future Brady’s siblings has their own books.

Now to the book itself, the first thing it came to my mind when I finished reading: Brady is definitely a giving man (in so many ways)! He’s a 100% the MVP of this story, I loved his relationship with his parents, his teammates, with his cute as a button son, Theo, with the baby momma and obviously with the nanny, Violet. He’s that great quarterback, handsome, funny and caring - the whole package. And his latest (obsession) one might stand, who wouldn’t give her name to him, show up to be the nanny. All pretenses are off.

Violet is a great person, loving, with a big heart, but super hurt by some men in the past. While Theo’s mom was away, Violet, him and Brady surely formed a great family bond, full of compassion and love. But I’m gonna say, they even lasted a long time pretend that their attraction should’ve stayed in the past and when they snapped, it was a beautiful and sexy thing to read. Brady pantry could tell a wonderful steamy story!

It was fun and emotional reading their road to love, they fought their feelings a lot and even though I really think the wrong person asked for forgiveness in the end, the finale certainly worked for them and I enjoyed. Another great book for the Kigsmen Football team. Also, I wouldn’t mind seeing Brady’s mom, Lennon, in all books from now on.

You Can't Kiss The Nanny, Brady Banks is the second book in Piper Rayne's incredible Kingsmen Football Stars series and is Brady, Violet and adorable little Theo's addictive story.
Brady Banks is the Kingsmen's wide receiver and when he's not with his son, he lives up to the football player reputation, keeping his "relationships" strictly to one night, not getting attached to anyone and making sure they don't get the chance to get attached to him and most importantly keeping that side of his life away from his little boy Theo.
But all that changes when the girl he hasn't been able to stop thinking about, the only girl Brady has ever wanted more than one night with, Violet Parks walks back into his life. Ever since the night they spent together six months ago, Brady has been looking for Violet, hoping that their paths will cross once again but without knowing Violet's name, it's hasn't been easy and Brady had started to give up hope he'd ever see her again. The last thing he expected was being reintroduced to Violet as his son's new nanny and her new boss.
Both Violet and Brady are surprised to see each other again, especially like this but it is quickly decided that what happened that night is best left in the past and they should keep things strictly professional between them.
However with chemistry like theirs, they're only able to ignore it for so long, so they come up with a plan, they'll be together until Violet's three month contract is up and then they'll go their separate ways with no hard feelings just amazing memories.
Which in theory would of been great, especially with both Violet and Brady not wanting anything serious but when feelings start to get involved and seeing Violet with his son is making Brady start to feel all the things for Violet and seeing what an amazing Dad Brady is, hearts are quickly becoming involved no matter how hard they tried to fight it.
"So much for the light and breezy affair we'd planned on having.
If I'm honest with myself, I knew it would never be a casual encounter for me. Something about Violet has pulled me to her since the first night we met."
So what happens when Violet's contract unexpectedly ends earlier than planned? Can Brady and Violet admit what they're are feeling for each other or will this mean the end of the family unit they were unknowingly building?
Read You Can't Kiss The Nanny, Brady Banks to find out! You will not regret spending your time with these amazing characters!
There are not enough words to express how much I LOVED this book! I could not put it down, it was so good I read it in one sitting! I absolutely loved these characters and you could not help but fall for them and Theo is so adorable! I have to say Brady Banks is the ultimate book boyfriend, the way he is with his son is truly swoon worthy! This story and these amazing characters stayed with me long after I read The End and I cannot wait for the next books in this incredible series which is quickly becoming one of my favourite Piper Rayne series to date.
I received an arc of You Can't Kiss The Nanny, Brady Banks and I am voluntarily leaving my review.

4.5 Stars!

Another great sports love story from Piper Rayne. I love the relationship between Violet and Theo, and that there was diversity in the characters, especially that the female MC is not a blond Caucasian woman. Its wonderful to see a character of Asian descent be the love interest in a sports romance. The chemistry between the two is off the charts and I also have a good time reading when I pick up a Piper Rayne book!

Steamy, ONS, sports romance, close proximity, single dad

Good addition to the series. The guys meet their matches and fall helplessly in love. The situation sticky. In this case boss/ employee.

Brady had a one night stand that rocked his world. No names made it impossible to find her. Then she walks in as the new nanny for his son.
Violet was getting over a bad relationship. No names - just one night.
Now the two are living in the same house trying to keep it professional. The chemistry is off the charts.
Brady makes us and Violet fall for him. He is a great father. His had no problem flaunting his love for his son. He is his son’s hero. The relationship is too cute. Even his relationship with his parents is easy and fun. They add another layer of laughter and love.
His family endears her to him because she had the opposite with her parents. I love her independence and doing what makes her happy even though it causes friction with her parents. She is smart, sexy and great with Brady and his son.
Very entertaining and an easy read.

I am loving the Kingsmen Football Stars series even though I don't understand a lick of it! Thanks to Piper Rayne and their abilities to create great stories, I like all kinds of sports. LOL Brady Banks is a single father. He has a great co-parenting relationship with his son's mother, but they need a nanny while she is out of town for a job. Enter Violet Park. She's the one night stand who got away. The chemistry and attraction between them has not diminished, but their focus has to be on Theo. Violet is great as a nanny, but finding out about the expectations her family has on her makes Violet feel like a failure. The depiction of Asian family expectation was accurate and relatable. I liked how Violet and Brady were able to balance their wants and needs with Theo's.

Cindy Kay and Aaron Shedlock brought Violet and Brady to life and made their story that much more relatable and realistic. The characters' emotions could be felt.

I received an advance copy of this book at my request and voluntarily left this review.

Brady and Violet story was everything that we wanted and weren’t ready for! I was ready for Brady to have to win my heart over but I was melting over him from the start! He is all star Wide reciever and a playboy at heart. That is until that one night stand that keeps taking space in his mind! Violet knows that her one night stand cannot be anything more even if she wanted it to. Fate brings them together when Violet ends up being the nanny for Brady’s child. Will temptation win? It was sweet watching the relationship with Brady and his kid. I loved that him and his baby momma had a great relationship so no drama there. The pull between these two is so strong and watching them was a delight! Sexy and of course I love the world that Piper rayne create that there is no doubt this is a must click!

I just cannot resist a single dad, but to add Piper Rayne on top of that is a guarantee that I’ll love it! And Brady and Violet’s story is one I definitely enjoyed! Little Theo was the cutest and left me with the biggest smile in every one of his scenes.
If I thought Brady as a dad was hot that was nothing compared to when he went into sexy alpha ‘I want you and only you’ mode. It’s no wonder Violet couldn’t resist temptation. I loved how she strived to live the life she wanted, regardless of what anyone thought. There was some forced proximity going as she was the nanny and boy was that tension thick! I loved it and the anticipation of wondering ,not if but, when they’d give in had me eager to get to the next page. In typical Piper Rayne fashion, they delivered while leading me wanting more with that tasty nugget dropped about the next Kingsmen book.

The dual narration between Cindy Kay and Aaron Shedlock was just literal aural goodness. These two not only complimented each other as the ideal Brady and Cindy, their performance made for the perfect complement to this story.

I love next gen stories and having Piper Rayne drop this one within another series was incredible. I also loved that they used the single dad trope like his parents book (Mad about the Banker) but made it completely different. I love that he has a good relationship with his son’s mom because I feel like we don’t see that enough in books. I loved Violet and could really feel her struggles on the page. Her family, her past loves, her struggle with career choices made her relatable. PR always delivers for me and I am estatic for Chase Andrews next!

I really enjoyed the storyline and characters in this book.

From the way Brady and Violet initially met, to their reunion, and all that happened after, I could not get enough. Violet was absolutely amazing with Theo. I love how easily she transitioned into the role of his nanny.

I can't lie, I was a bit nervous about how this relationship between Brady and Violet would work out. Especially since they both have things from their pasts to work through. Yet as their relationship progressed, I found myself rooting for them. These two just fit together wonderfully.

When the "break up" happened, my heart sunk a bit. I mean I knew they would get back together in the end, but at that moment I really felt bad for each of them. Possibly even more so for Theo. I did love their reunion, and how all of that played out. After all it lead to a very happily ever after. Cannot wait to see these two in future books.

One quick thing...when that job offer came up, my mind immediately went to "who is it?", and it made me wonder if we might head back to that team sometime soon to find out.

Also the ending of this book has me eager to read Chase's story! I cannot freaking wait for that one.

When Brady and Violet have a wild one night stand, Brady is left wanting more while Violet wants it to be a one time thing. They don’t even exchange names, but Brady spends six months looking for her. So of course everyone is surprised when Violet is hired to be the live in nanny for Brady’s adorable five year old.

Piper Rayne knocked it out of the park with this one! Brady and Violet fighting their attraction to each other was the greatest kind of tease. Brady’s young son was a scene stealer in the very best way, and watching Violet and Brady interacting together with him made my ovaries skip a beat. Add in the team camaraderie with all the men we’ve come to love on the Kingsmen team, and this book was absolute gold!

If you’re a sucker for a sports romance, this series will not disappoint!

Thank you to Valentine PR for providing me with an ARC of this book,

YOU CAN'T KISS THE NANNY, BRADY BANKS By Piper Rayne

Thank you, Piper Rayne and Valentine PR for a copy.

P.s - After being introduced to Brady's folks I had to go and get the book with their story and mind you it's as kicka** as this one.

Throwing back to MAD ABOUT THE BANKER by Piper Rayne when young Brady Banks is just a kid!

Fast forward about 22 years (warp speed) and you have YOU CANT KISS THE NANNY BRADY BANKS.

Brady Banks is an NFL stalwart who loves nothing more than his 5yo son Theo. He co-parents with his ex-wife, but when her job takes her overseas on a deployment, she proposes Brady get a nanny to help him care for Theo. Sounds like a plan until Brady meets the said nanny - one Violet, of the ‘I slept with Brady and didn’t think I’d ever see him again, until I did ….when I got the job nannying for his son’. So Violet and Brady put their (hot) past behind them for the sake of Theo and Violet’s lack of other employment. Until they can’t….

YOU CANT KISS THE NANNY BRADY BANKS is a (slight) age-gap, unrequited, mysterious stranger one night stand but wanting more, forbidden sports romance. There’s steam galore about Brady’s mansion (but with some shushing so Theo is none the wiser). There are also cameos from Brady’s parents, which I loved - as both Jasper and Lennon looked good with a few years on them (channeling this energy I have to say). Other themes include cultural norms and expectations (Violet is of Korean descent and not adhering to her parents expectations of what she should be achieving), Violet’s fear of being hurt after a cheating ex, and female friendships found.

This is the second bingeable instalment of the Kingsmen series, with Lee Burrows et al, all making appearances. Well worth your money!

You think you’d be excited when the one night stand that you’ve been thinking about for months shows back up in your life….but Brady Banks is not. Because you can’t kiss the nanny. I enjoyed the second novel in the Kingsmen Football Stars series as it was filled with some of my favorite tropes forced proximity, single parent, and strong friendships. I definitely would recommend this novel to anyone who likes sports romances with a bit of spice & longing!

You Can't Kiss the Nanny, Brady Banks by Piper Rayne is book Two in the Kingsmen Football Stars Series. This is the story of Violet and Brady. Brady and Violet have a hot one night together and that was to be it. But now a few months later Violet ends up become the Nanny to his son. I enjoyed this book and I hope to read more from this author.

First, this series is quickly becoming one of my favorite sports romances. It is so well written and relatable.

Brady is a single dad to Theo. He has a great co-parenting relationship with Theo's mom, Hannah. While Hannah is out of the country, it's decided that Brady needs to get a nanny to help with Theo. Hannah hires Violet. Violet just happens to be the one night stand that Brady had six months ago and she ghosted him.

Forced proximity is the name of the game in this book, and it's favorite place is the pantry. I don't think I'll ever look at a pantry the same again. WHEW!!🔥🔥

I loved the relationship Brady has with Theo, and the relationship Violet has with Theo. It's a very child-centric thing. Not saying that the book is all about the kiddo, but when you have a storyline about a single dad the kiddo should be an integral part. Also, the co-parenting aspect was very well portrayed. There was respect and communication from both parties.

The audiobook was pretty good. I loved Aaron Shedlock's portrayal of Brady. I felt that he did the character justice. I wasn't as sold on Cindy Kay as Violet though. I found her voice to be too meek and soft, almost whiney at times. That's just not how I envisioned Violet. All in all, the audiobook is still worth buying or using a credit on.

💥Always check the TW/CW💥

Anywho! Time to wrap this up with the goodies:

HEA

Wonderfully witty, cute and compelling, You Can’t Kiss the Nanny, Brady Banks is such a fantastic rom com! This was my first Piper Rayne book and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The dynamic between Brady and Violet was so well executed and I adored the development of their relationship. Theo adds a fun extra dimension to the story that really gives it that something special. Highly recommend!

It's time for more Capital Kingsmen Football and this time it's none other than the single dad/playboy Brady Banks who is gonna fall.

You Can't Kiss the Nanny, Brady Banks is such a fun story- you have the one night stand that you can't get out of your head, single dad whose awesome kid is the center of his world, and forced proximity with the nanny that loves the kid like her own. Not to mention the chemistry and heat that I love in Piper Rayne books plus some fun moments with not only Brady's parents (who have their own book - Mad About the Banker) but also some of the Kingsmen guys that will be getting their own HEA's in the future.

I really like Brady- yeah he is that flirty playboy that doesn't do relationships but he also evolved from being that guy pretty quickly after his ONS with the girl that he connected with in a way that blew his mind. But really I love so much about his personality- he's fun, down to earth, personable and his relationship with his son just had me with hearts in my eyes for him. The way he interacts with his parents/siblings as well as the way he co-parents with Hannah- let's just say I'd let him back me into the kitchen pantry anytime 😉 He's not perfect in any way but I still kind of adore him. Violet though- it took me a minute with her. I loved how sweet and caring she was toward Theo but her hang ups with her family and scars from relationships past also made her slightly annoying to me in how wishy washy she was at times. Like you can't be the one to throw up road blocks and pump the breaks but then be destroyed with the man with abandonment issues respects your boundaries without pushing for more.

I have to say that I am super pumped for the next Kingsmen installment- I just cannot wait to get more of Mr. Grump Chase Andrews and the drama that is bound to unfold with a certain teammates little sister!

I think this is the best nanny×boss romance book!!!!!
About the story (spoiler free):
Brady is a playboy, who only does one nights stands. But when he has one night stand with Violet, he becomes obsessed with her. So when Violet shows up to his house that she is his son's new nanny, imagine Brady's reaction when he sees her. This is the where the fun begins!!!
This is my first book form Piper Rayne, and it was amazing!
If you love nanny×boss romance books, with a hoot football player who is a playboy, and with steamy sentence in the story then you must read THIS BOOK

“…when we’re together, it feels as though nothing else matters, as though nothing could ever be better than the two of us.”

I love this series so much. Each book has been so full of emotion and so much fun. You Can’t Kiss The Nanny, Brady Banks captivated me from the first page to the last. After a one night together, Brady has been obsessed with finding the woman he spent the night with. Imagine his surprise when six months later, she shows up as his nanny. Can these two resist the attraction that is simmering beneath the surface and keep their relationship professional?

Violet was a complex character that was struggling with her relationship with her family and with past romantic relationships. They have left her feeling unsure of herself and she feels that she can’t trust her feelings. She feels disposable in her own life and my heart went out to her. She’s terrified of opening her heart, but Brady and his son try their best to shatter her defenses.

Brady is just adorable. He’s fiercely protective of his son and such a good father. His patience and resolve to do what’s right for both Violet and his son was so heartwarming. He had some scars from his own past and has his own fears that he needs to overcome before he can trust in his heart.

“I promise to show you how you should be treated and I won’t stop until you believe in our happily ever after.”

Violet and Brady had a white-hot chemistry that was absolutely electric. I loved watching Violet bloom under Brady’s attention. His determination to communicate was so honest and refreshing and I loved how tender and sensitive he was to make Violet comfortable in her own feelings. They both had to learn how to open themselves up and trust in another person.

Full of spine-tingling chemistry, laugh out loud humor, push and pull banter and so much heart, You Can’t Kiss The Nanny, Brady Banks was a fun, fast read that tugged at my emotions. Brady and Violet were perfection together and I loved Violet’s relationship with Theo as well. It was so refreshing to see how Brady coparented as well. Now I’m anxiously awaiting Chase’s story!!!

You can’t kiss the nanny, Brady Banks
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️4/5
.
I received this as an arc from Valentine pr. After reading this one, I want to read the first in the series!

Brady we’ve known since the beginning is a playboy. He’s a single dad, and mom is still in the picture, but travels for work.

Brady and Violet have a one night stand and go their separate way without even exchanging phone numbers. Brady’s baby mama will be gone for a few months and he needs some help, so he hires a nanny. To his surprise the nanny is Violet…..

I absolutely love Violet! She’s so strong, brave, and courageous for standing up to her family the way she did! Violet and Brady have such a funny relationship, trying to act like neither of them cares.

There are so many amazing tropes

🔥one night stand
🔥employee/boss
