Sexy Bad #2

Sexy Bad Daddy

Rate this book
Once upon a time Garrett Frost, bad boy of professional golf, found out he had a two year old daughter.

Okay, okay, it wasn’t that long ago. His escapades are still in the media, and his sponsors are all in a tail spin, but his daughter sure is cute.

That’s where I come in. I’m his nanny. The kid’s nanny. Of course, I’m not his. He’s older, my employer, totally off limits. And I can’t forget that, even if he makes me want to fall for him with every lingering gaze, each secret touch.

He’s trying so hard to reform his professional image and be the father his daughter deserves. If anyone knew he was screwing his nanny it’d be all over the media, ruining his sponsorships, and affecting his relationship with his daughter. Or worse, convincing everyone we could be a family.

But Garrett Frost’s family is the game and his daughter. There’s no room for me. So why does it feel like I’ve finally found my forever?

Misti Murphy writes sweet and funny, sometimes frustrating and always swoony romantic comedies with just a teensy bit of angst.

When she's not writing she lives in an imaginary world full of happy humans, glitter, and unicorns.

Not that being a mother of four, plus four fur kids isn't practically the same thing. Except when they steal the Tim Tams.

(Kangaroos are practically unicorns, right?)

Title: Sexy Bad Daddy
Author: Misti Murphy & Tami Lund

5 amazing stars



So my first taste of this author duo was Sexy Bad Neighbor and i don't think i've laughed more when it came to Paynt and Chloe's endless pranking on one another. Instantly, i fell in love with these two authors and for some unexpected reason, i never thought i'd see them again. But see them again, i did. All this through Garrett and Erin's story. I don't think i've ever been as envious towards a nanny's position/job as i was with every moment these two characters spent together.

4.5 sexy dreams



This story had it all - romance, sexiness, not too much gold references (i'm probably as clueless about golf as i am about baseball - my knowledge limited to a man/woman hitting a ball into a hole many yards away) and so much cuteness in a three year old that i wished i could take her home with me. I was captivated by the storyline and couldn't stop cheering when something good happened for this little family. And yes, i laughed as well, making Sexy Bad Daddy a very well rounded book, worthy to be passed around to my friend like a dirty little secret!

5 Stars to Sexy Bad Daddy by authors Misti Murphy & Tami Lund.

Garrett and Erin.......

This is the second book in the Sexy Bad series and if you haven't read book one yet, Sexy Bad Neighbor, you need to grab that as well.

Sexy Bad Daddy is funny and sexy with light angst and suspense and a whole lot of fun, witty, sassy, secondary characters. There are many brilliant laugh out loud moments. In addition, the sexual chemistry and tension is off-the-charts.

Garrett is a professional golfer. He is arrogant and cocky and a true womanizer. Additionally Garrett has recently discovered that he is also a father. It isn't only for the sake of his adorable daughter, Abby, that Garrett needs to clean up his image. His sponsors are ready to pull the plug on investing any more money on him. Garrett is determined to try and become more of a role model. His first task is to find a responsible nanny for his baby girl. Abby was so adorable; what a precious scene stealer she was.

Erin is a nanny by profession. But she once again finds herself out of a job. An incident from her past, a mistake Erin completely regrets, something that happened eight years ago, keeps interfering with her current employment.

Erin is desperate to find a new position and when she applies for the position of Abby's nanny, Garrett is not thrilled. He has his reasons. He does not want Erin as Abby's nanny.

For a while, despite the obvious chemistry between them. Erin and Garrett keep a professional distance. But once the lines are blurred and boundaries are crossed, there is no going back. The dynamic will change.

I absolutely loved watching Garrett and Erin's relationship develop. Garrett was so adamant that he would never be involved in a relationship. I swooned as I watched his walls crumble. Let me add that he was an amazing father as well.

Erin was a sweetheart. Aside from the secrets she kept, she was a perfect heroine for Garrett. And don't get me started on how sexy and sweet Garrett was. This book has a couple of twists and turns but nothing too angsty. Erin and Garret will have their HEA.

I wholeheartedly loved this book! I love this series and I can't wait for the next book!

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy a book written by two author's and I'm super happy. Have you seen the cover? Or the tittle? I'm on cloud nine.
What can I say about these two ladies writting? I can assure you that they have an intense writting, full of feelings and with some pretty hot and sassy stuff into the mix. I have surrender to their words and now I want more.
Sexy Bad Daddy is Misti and Tami latest release end tells the stories of Garrett and Erin.
Garrett is a professional golfer that just found out he had a three year old daughter. Well everything could be a bed of roses but since he's a womanizer and a player a kid doesn't fit in this type of life. But what can he do? If he don't put is life on track he will start to lose some sponsors and that is a no go. In order to do that He needs to find a babysitter stat and what a better way to find one than in a bar lol.
Erin is sweet girl that has a very bad past that she desperately wants to forget. She needs to find a new job in order to move on with her life. She's a babysitter and when she gets the opportunity to work for the enigmatic Garrett she takes it.
But what will happen? Will this be just another job or something else? Can she forget her past or will it return to hunt her?
Omg this book is amazing. I haven't read the first book from this series but I will get into it now. I've laughed so hard that almost wet my panties, lol, but there were parts that I was mad and sad. It's so good to have a light story just like this to make us feel better.
The plot is amazing and the interaction between the characters is superb. The reading was smooth and intense. I really loved it.
Can't wait to read more books from this girls.

I love both these authors individually but I love their collaborations even more.....everything they write together is just flows and is a delight to read!

This book is brilliantly funny, lots of laugh out loud moments and one liners. It is packed with truly likeable characters that are well developed. There is great chemistry between Garrett and Erin and this makes for a fantastic love story with just a little angst.

I absolutely adored Abby, she is such a cute little character.....and she definitely made me chuckle to myself on more than one occasion. I think she has the grown ups well and truly wrapped around her little finger!

I am loving the Sexy Bad series and can't wait to read more. Bring on James!!

I freaking love this series. While this book want nearly as funny as the first book, this one definintely tugged on the heart stings. Garrett and Erin were perfectly matched. They complimented each other perfectly and I loved the fact that Erin brought the bad boy of golf to his knees. However it was very heart breaking to see the younger Erin manipulated into an inappropriate relationship with a former employer. She was such a young impressionable woman who fell for the wrong guy. But it was eventually worth it as both her and Garrett deserved their HEA's.

Please note, this review was previously published in 2017 under a profile used by multiple people. I am removing those reviews and republishing them on my new, personal profile.

SEXY BAD DADDY is the second book in the Sexy Bad series and after reading the first book, I was very eager to read this one. Sadly, I didn’t find it as enjoyable as the previous book. I didn’t feel any chemistry between Garrett and Erin at all and it just didn’t hold my attention as easily as SEXY BAD NEIGHBOR did.

I liked Erin, who takes her nanny job very seriously and falls in love with every child she looks after. She made a bad decision when she was 18, and it has followed her around for every job she’s had since. There’s a big age difference between Erin and Garrett (she’s 26, he’s 37), but in regards to their maturity levels, there was no difference at all because until recently, Garrett hadn’t needed to grow up. I don’t really have a lot to say about Garrett, other than he has a gorgeous daughter that he didn’t know about until six months ago, and yet she immediately became his entire world…next to golf of course.

What I found interesting is that it wasn’t the two main characters who stood out in this story, but instead it was Erin’s best friend, Danny, who did. He wasn’t in the story very much, but when he was, he brought the laughs with him. His weird obsession with stealing Garrett’s belongings (because he’s a huge fan) and being a thorn in Garrett’s side provided most of the entertainment in this story.

While SEXY BAD DADDY is part of a series, it can be read as a stand-alone. It is told in dual POVs and comes with a nice HEA for Garrett and Erin.

Single dad with a bad boy image with an Adorable three year old who keeps him on his toes is in desperate need of a nanny. Enter Erin, a nanny with a past she wishes she could change who is frantically searching for work to get off her best friends couch. So to hot guys are drinking while joking in a bar.....no it's not a build up for a joke it's actually how they first meet. Garrett can't get his mind off the sexy red head & Erin can get that sexy guy who made her melt either. So imagine her surprise running into him the next day to fill the nanny position.

Will Erina past come back to haunt her? Will Garrett be able to clean up his act to save his career?
Will they be able to keep things strictly business or will their mutual attraction be to hard to fight?

This book was laugh out loud funny. I LOVED getting a sneak peek into Paynt, Chole,and Spots lives as well. This was an amazing installment in sexy series that I'm so in love with!!! Garrett is so funny & sexy I wanna watch golf now.

Adorable and Sexy

Hmm, it's hard to compete with a goat and a chandelier, but this books tries it's hardest when they throw in a adorable little girl and a duck. I must say this book drew me in from the very beginning and it was hard to put down. But aren't those the books that are the best?

I love it when a book makes me laugh and cry, and not to mention go ' what the hell?' Once again you throw together a couple who are to busy keeping feelings from each other and are bound to mess something up.

This books makes you want to cry when everything blows up in their faces and you want to jump into the book and kill a reporter and maybe the psycho ex too. This book just gives you everything you want.

You will not be disappointed to come on this book journey with me. We might get a hole in one or we might sink one in the water hazard, but let's go check it out... FORE!!!!!

Until Next Time... Tabi

Garrett is a professional golfer and womanizer. Even after gaining full custody of his daughter, he continues to sleep his way through as many women as possible and it is upsetting his sponsors. His agent's only advise it to tone it down. Garrett is also looking for a permanent, long-term nanny for his adorable daughter. Erin was a young, naive nanny at 18 and was taken advantage of by her employer and then blamed for the relationship. Older and wiser, she is desperate for a job when she stumbles into Garrett. Garrett does not want to hire Erin because he is immediately attracted to her. He has also never been in any relationship before and messes up many times. Explicit.

Past mistakes

Sometimes when we make bad choices when we are young has a way to hunt you as an adult. This was a really good read. Young Erin fell in love with the wrong guy when she was young. Now eight years later she doesn’t want to make the same mistakes. What is a girl to do when the older man that is your single boss makes it clear that he wants you? A lot of interesting moments. Great book.

Ends With a Birdie ❤️🦆⛳️💙

I enjoyed the back and forth between Garrett and Erin. The chemistry was there and the relationship was able to grow. The nanny dating the father was hot. I like the golf aspect of it, although I did find some irregularities to it.

The ending felt a bit rushed and I’m not sure how things were resolved. The duck was a cute addition, it joins the goat.

I’d be interested in reading on to the next brother, James, and get his story.

Sexy bad Awesome!

I " bought" the first book in this series bc Eddie Cleveland mentioned it in his newsletter and it was free. Book two is better than book one. Fun romp with good dialogue and likeable personalities. Not much depth but enjoyable. Now on to book three. The author makes you care about the secondary characters and want to know all about them.

Sexy "Red" Fun

A fun fast paced story that was a good in one for a bit steamy story. Garrett's favorite color may have been green until encountering the lovely red of Erin in the rough.... This was an enjoyable read and I recommend it those that like scoring a perfect tee-off and a hole-in-one ending.

I liked it but not as much as I'd hoped

I liked the story but Garrett was such a jerk and Erin came across as way more immature than she should have been for her age. And really no agency would let her work for them with her previous employer situation. That was a little hard to believe. So good story but not the best.

Sizzling

Hot nanny gets hired by single dad. Not exactly a new spin in a romance book, but, it still hits the right notes. Garrett is intense and attracted, also trying to clean up his image for his sponsors. Erin has a past mistake with a nanny position, tries to stay away from Garrett. This was easy to read. Some humor, frustration, and lots of sizzle.

Do not judge me, I know😂 but can you blame me, this book has a main character with my name and the other main character with my crush's name. The male mc is also oddly similar to my crush so that's a plus😂

Misti Murphy and Tami Lund have struck gold with the Sexy Bad series, and Sexy Bad Daddy continues the series in grand, funny, sexy style. This time around we're treated to Garrett (Paynter's brother) and Erin's journey from merely working relationship between nanny and employer to sexy, in love couple. Erin is a professional nanny who's just lost her position and is desperate to find another one. She's been crashing with her best friend, Danny, at his weird, boy infested house, but if she can get another great nanny position, she can move out and live with a family and care for their children.

In comes Garrett, world class professional golfer, who has an adorable daughter and is in desperate need of a nanny, and a cleaner image. When Erin's nanny agency sends her in for an interview, Garrett immediately says no. How can he expect himself to work with such a hot young woman? He knows himself, knows he is a womanizer, and seducing his nanny would be a bad idea. So, he says no. But he doesn't count on Erin's determination to secure this position. So he agrees to give her a trial run. Soon enough they're slipping into a steamy relationship and she's falling not just for Garrett, sexy golf daddy, but more importantly, for his adorable daughter, Abby. But, there's someone out there who has been watching Erin for years, just waiting to get to her, and he'll cause the couple no amount of problems. When it's revealed what happened between them, will Garrett be glad to be rid of Erin? He knows he has to clean up his image if he wants to retain his sponsors and his position in the world of professional golf. Or will Erin be more important to him than his image?

I love Sexy Bad Daddy. It's sexy and sweet, and Garrett is just as perfectly imperfect as I had been hoping for with the glimpses I got of him in Sexy Bad Neighbor. The secondary cast is just as great as Garrett and Erin: from adorable, precocious Abby, to silly, solid as a rock BF Danny, and the quirky animals that litter this series (who doesn't love ducks and goats?!) there isn't one person in this world that Misti and Tami have written that I don't adore. I can't wait for more!

Sexy Bad series # 2
Misti Murphy
4 stars
Author review.

I love Misti Murphy’ s writing style, she constantly keeps me laughing and falling in love with her characters. I always love the main characters and their banter between each other but there was an extra person in Sexy Bad Daddy that really look my heart and stole the story - Abby Frost. We met Paynter and Chloe in Sexy Bad Neighbour, and these two play a role in this story following Paynter’s brother, Garrett story. Never fear, be prepared for a ride , it might be in a Range Rover, or a Golf Cart or maybe a goat....

When world number one golfer Garrett Frost found he had a daughter he has been searching for the perfect nanny. But his fast paced life, and fast-paced women made it a little more difficult. Bu the night he met Erin everything changed. Poor Erin can’t cut a break, being fired from every nanny job is getting a little old, so when Olive You Nanny organises an interview for a nanny to a 3 year old child she sees her chance. The 1st meeting does not go as planned and Erin is caught off guard when her new employer is the man she met at the bar.

Erin and Garrett enter a humorous and steaming hot working relationship, add in 3 yr old Abby who stole my heart that 1st meeting and Erin ‘s best friend Danny, and this is a funny yet wild ride... Fanny reminded me of the token gay guy turned heterosexual male, whom will take on any woman as long as it’s not Erin, that girl is his wingwoman. While Erin takes impeccable care of little Abby and her Daddy. What starts as the perfect working relationship turns very heated very quickly, trying to change her ways, Erin tries to push away Garrett but when the lines blur and her past comes into focus it’s not just Garrett’s sordid past that raises its ugly head...

All of a sudden the story of happy families and clean cut family man Garrett come crashing down. Coming out with Erin creates more questions, ones that Garrett doesn’t want to answer eventually all hell breaks loose, things are said, things go unsaid a crazy man shows up, a golf cart and a duck makes for a very entertaining ride. This is a must read if you like a bit of humour , loveable characters and animals, hello who doesn’t love crazy animals.

I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.

In this book we meet Garrett Frost and Erin Sanders. Erin and Garrett meet at a bar while watching the Black Hawks play one night. Both are there with other people and it is a chance meeting however on that night Erin gets fired from her recent nanny job and Garrett is looking for a nanny for his daughter. Erin knows it is a bad idea to even consider working for Garrett since he hit on her the first time they met. Erin needs a job though and what she doesn't know is Mr. Frost is about to possibly be the man to give it to her. Can she stay professional though or will this be just another mistake she has made?

Garrett has been told to clean up his act or he will start loosing sponsors. Now that he has a daughter he needs to make sure that he does what he is told. So when he meets the new nanny the agency sent over he thinks this could be trouble. The problem is no one has really worked out and he is running out of options. He needs someone that can fit in his schedule and that his daughter likes. So when he introduces Erin to Abby and they hit it off he thinks this just might work out. If only he could get her out of his head. Can he find a way to have it all or will he implode with all the changes they want him to make in his life?

This is a great story about finding a way to come back from mistakes that you never thought you would. There are definitely ups and downs between these two, and the twists that come in this book with have you hooked to find out what will happen next. There are so many things I want to tell you about this book but don't want to ruin it for any other readers. I will say this book will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I would highly recommend it.

I loved this book and couldn’t put it down.

I loved reading about Garrett and Erin. I enjoyed reading about this couple because they felt real to me. Not the being a pro-golfer part but the part that we all have a past and have done things in our past that sometimes we can’t get past or it keeps coming back to bite us in the ass. Both Erin and Garrett are dealing with issues that they did bring upon themselves but they were trying to deal with it and move on. Garretts finds out he is a father, then being given full guardianship over his daughter. His job isn’t the easiest to have and raise a daughter single handedly. So, he needs the help of a nanny. You can tell he loves his daughter very much and tries to do right by her.

My feeling for Erin was a little more all over the place. I liked her and I think she seemed like an amazing nanny. However, most of the book dealt with her unresolved issue from her first nanny job and in some ways, I felt it got a little old. It was mentioned in the book that she knows she should stop being a nanny but she just wasn’t ready to start a new career and start at the bottom. To me, this is where I had a love/dislike for Erin. If she was so concerned about not having another problem like she did and it bothered her that much, starting over shouldn’t have to be so difficult. I felt with her at times the analogy, she was an alcoholic but didn’t for the most part have a problem being at a bar but at some point, she is going to slip.

I adored Abby and her love of goats. It is such an odd animal for a kid to be so into that it was adorable. I loved Abby’s relationship with both Garrett and Erin. She is so proud of her dad and loves to watch him golf.
