Synopsis
My best friend is married.
Everyone I know is married. It doesn’t bother me. I like my life the way it is.
Since I’m single though, when my best friend and her husband finally decide to go on their dream honeymoon, she asks me to watch their three-year-old son.
Of course I say yes.
What my best friend neglects to tell me is that I won’t be babysitting alone.
Feeling Max might be too much for me to handle, her husband asks his only single friend to help.
Nick Carrington and I have met a couple of dozen times. I’ve never really given him a second thought—other than to say he’s kind of a jerk. Out loud. So he can hear. Sure, he’s tall, dark, and handsome. And yes, he has the best ass I’ve ever seen, and I mean ever seen quite literally. You see he mooned me at last year’s Fourth of July barbecue because, like I said, he’s a jerk.
He always has to be the life of the party.
He’s also arrogant.
Imposing.
Rich.
And a playboy.
I’d even go as far as to say he’s a manwhore.
Yet somehow before I know it, this manwhore and I are co-parenting. Living under the same roof.
Eating meals together and yes, talking.
Don’t look at me like that—it’s not like I had a choice. Even though I knew every minute would be hell, I had to say yes.
But after two weeks what I didn’t expect is that I’d been wrong about him.
That under his smart-ass exterior, he’s quite charming.
That his arrogance is actually confidence.
And that the sight of his naked body would do really bad things to me.
So yes, I’ve misjudged him. And yes, I like him. Really like him. Although there are times I still think he’s a jerk…I now think he’s a sexy jerk.
And I want more of him.
The question is—does he want more of me?

Michel’s Review
Kim Karr is starting Summer 2017 with a sizzling hot new book! Ladies turn up the fans, fill your glasses to the rim with ice because Sexy Jerk by Kim Karr is going to set you on fire.
Tess Winters has returned to Chicago after a failed relationship that forced her to sell out her half of the restaurant she worked tirelessly to establish. Tess, not being the kind of woman to tuck tail and run, has a new life plan. She’s going to open her new cafe on her own terms and create a business she has complete control over. Coming back to Chicago is a good thing as far as she is concerned. She has good friends to help keep her grounded as she rebuilds her career. The first thing on her agenda is taking care of her best friend’s little boy Max while she takes a much needed belated honeymoon with her husband. The second thing on her agenda is to find the right location to open her new cafe. While the first part should be easy, the second part is proving to be almost impossible. Between the expensive rental prices and shady real estate agents and landlords, finding the right location seems impossible. That is until the Sexy Jerk enters the picture.
Nick Carrington has been enlisted to help to Tess take care of Max. Spending time with the adorable little boy and a drop dead sexy woman isn’t a problem for Nick. He and Tess have met several times and he’d like to get to know her better.
Nick has always rubbed Tess the wrong way. She finds him arrogant and conceited until she gets to know him better. Her perceptions of him were completely wrong. He’s even helping her find a place to get her business up and running.
While Nick and Tess play house, the chemistry between the two is sizzling hot. When they hit the sheets it’s explosive. Is great sex enough to keep them together after the babysitting gig is over? When trouble hits both of their businesses can they survive the fall out?
Kim Karr has once again delivered a great story that is only the beginning. The array of secondary characters are screaming for their own books. Jace’s story is coming and I can’t wait to see what happens in this hot little corner of Chicago.
