Tempt Me (Bodyguard Bad Boys Book 2) (Volume 2)

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Mia is an orphan and loves children, so she becomes a nanny. Her last job her boss was doing illegal dealings. Mia saw and recorded it and help send him to jail. Now she’s a nanny for Bailey, Austin’s little girl. Austin works for Ace Security as a bodyguard and has promised himself never to marry again. His first wife got pregnant on purpose and he married her but she ran off. Now he’s raising his daughter with the help of Mia. The attraction between them sparks and they keep their distance at first but finally give in to it. She knows how he feels about marriage so she breaks it off. But Bailey’s mother is back and wanting money or custody and Austin will do anything to keep that from happening. Mia finds out her old boss is having a retrial and she has to testify again but someone is threatening her not to. Can Austin protect his heart and Mia too?
Excellent story. Well told, with characters who are almost real with real problems. Sexy. A cute little girl, a handsome guy and a strong beautiful woman. Crazy ex’s.

First we have Austin, a protector not only by profession but by nature as well. A sweetheart under that tough exterior who's gotten hurt by a pretty face with some well thought out lies before. His main concern now is his daughter and making up for being a single parent.
Next is Mia, Austin's live in nanny. She is a sweet, good-natured woman who grew up in foster care and dreams of a large family to call her own. Mia's integrity found her testifying against a former boss before coming to work for Austin, but some things don't always stay in the past.
With Austin's ex coming around looking for more money to stay away and Mia's old boss getting a retrial, this stressful and complicated situation helps throw Austin and Mia together when they were trying so hard to keep a boss/employee relationship.
I loved watching them in the beginning of their relationship, I cried when Mia said she couldn't do a casual relationship anymore, I was ecstatic when Austin realized he needed Mia in his life.
I liked being able to get a glimpse of Ben and Summer from the previous book in the series and can't wait to read more.

4 stars

I think that I have a little guilty pleasure when it comes to nanny and single dads. This one is one of my favorites from this year so far. On top of that Austin is a body guard trying to take care of his daughter after his wife left. So finding a nanny is definitely on the list to take care of his daughter. Mia gets the job and her and Austin have agreed that they need to keep this professional. With that being said, I can't tell you too much, because this is a pretty drama free book, yes you will have that little bit that keeps it going, but all in all it is fast paced and very much enjoyable every part of the story. I loved Mia and how strong she was and how she took care of Bailey. Austin, who doesn't love a body guard trying to protect his little girl, who can't fall in love with that.

I love Carly Phillips. I have not found a book that I haven't fell in love with a book that she has written. These two characters and the mix of his daughter was just a perfect book. I hope to read more from Carly. She just has a way for words and I love that from her.

Bodyguard Bad Boys.....

This is my first book I have read by this author, but I have to be honest, I was able to receive a free copy of Going Down Easy and it's been on my TBR list for-evah, I am ashamed to admit it....

Tempt Me is part of her Bachelor Bad Boys series, and it was fantastic!  This story of Austin and Mia was a fast paced read, with the alphaness that was spot on, the naughty times were oh so swoony, and the just the right amount of angst and danger to keep you hooked from the first paragraph on!

I was impressed with the strength of Mia, with her background, to become the person she was is phenomenal! They way she put Bailey's needs above her own was so laudable and obviously one just one of the many reasons that Austin couldn't stay away.

Austin is the total package, alpha male off the charts, with the sweet side in abundance. To read his interactions with his daughter was so moving.  To read is POV throughout made me melt!

You better believe I will be reading more from this fantastic author! Well done Carly! You made another new fan today!

I normally dislike the daddy & nanny trope. That being said I usually like anything by Carly Phillips. So I was on the fence about this one before starting it. I wanted it to be good but also wanted it to be so different than the few books with this theme I’ve read before. After the first chapter, I knew this one was going to be a good one.

Austin is a great dad and you get to see that from the start. He honestly puts his daughter, Bailey, above everything else. Mia is great too because she absolutely adores Bailey. From the first page you are immediately immersed into the will they/won’t they pull between Austin and Mia.

From the beginning until the end of this book there’s just an ease in which these two characters relate to each other. While of course there’s attraction and complications due to communication issues between them, they still get each other and it shows. This was one of what I call my “believable” stories. It has just enough conflict to keep it interesting but not enough to take over the main relationship storyline. I received this book in exchange for an honest review.

But Bailey’s mother is back and wanting money or custody and Austin will do anything to keep that from happening.

Excellent story. Well told, with characters who are almost real with real problems. Sexy. A cute little girl, a handsome guy and a strong beautiful woman. Crazy ex’s.

Austin works as a bodyguard while Mia takes care of his daughter. Having been seriously burned in his previous relationship, Austin swears he's never doing the marriage/commitment thing again. Mia, on the other hand, chose to become a nanny because she's always wanted to take care of kids and dreams of having her own family one day. Austin respects Mia enough that he tries to avoid a fling with her, knowing that he could never be the man she's looking for forever with.

Ah, but you know what they say about the best laid plans. The undeniable attraction between these two has each of them rethinking their life's goals. As outside forces threaten them on two different fronts, Austin and Mia are forced to confront their true feelings and find a way to make it work.

It's a fast-paced, hot and steamy love story that doesn't pull any emotional punches along the way. An added bonus was seeing Ben and Summer from the previous book in this series, and the writing for the child's character was extraordinarily well-done. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Yes, we’ve seen this trope before, single father falls for his child's nanny, but nobody does it like Carly Phillips! This book is so much more than that, not only because Austin is a bodyguard, and not only because there’s a nasty ex-wife causing trouble, but because trouble from the Mia's past provides an additional element of danger.

I loved the advance copy I read of this book! Yes, I’m a little biased because I’ve never read anything from this author that I didn’t like, and because I read and enjoyed the first book in this series, but this one kept me on the edge of my seat as I devoured it, eager to find out what would happen with these characters I quickly became vested in. I loved Austin, all big, bad, tough alpha but a marshmallow when it came to his daughter, and I adored Mia who, although she was young, was a strong, determined, kind hearted woman who knew her own mind. The storyline was terrific, with lots of action, a few surprises, a nice dose of steam and a big bunch of heart, and this book is definitely worth reading.

4.5 Stars

This is the second book in the Bodyguard Bad Boys series and I loved it! Austin Rhodes has been hurt and wants to just live his life, him andhis daughter. Hiring a nanny to help out this Bodyguard with basic care of his daughter while he works is top priority. No sexy women have to ever be involved in his life again…enter sexy nanny Mia Atwood.

Mia loves her job as Austin’s live in nanny, and having a hot boss to look at? Perks of the job. However, she knows Bailey is her number one priority, so she tries to keep the relationship professional (although, we know this will NEVER happen – and love every minute it doesn’t!).

Mia finds herself actually needing Austin’s service as a bodyguard, putting them in even closer proximity. Watching them struggle to be professional, eventually not being very successful (and man were those scenes HOT!!) kept me on the edge of my seat. Add in the suspense factor and this book absolutely had it all!!

Review copy provided for a voluntary review.

I totally loved Tempt Me, book two in Carly Phillips’ Bodyguard Bad Boys series. Austin Rhodes is a bodyguard and a single dad to his little girl Bailey. After the all of the drama and distrust his ex caused, he has sworn off all women. Austin hired Mia Atwood to take care of Bailey but finds himself attracted to the nanny. These two are unable to avoid their attraction, especially when Mia is threatened by someone from her past and Austin moves into alpha bodyguard mode. Although he doesn’t think he wants another relationship, Mia has him questioning his thinking and re-evaluating his priorities to himself, his daughter, and to Mia.

Ms. Phillips is a wonderful storyteller which she demonstrated in this story. I really enjoyed reading this book and had trouble putting it down. This is a great book with plenty of sex, romance and suspense. I highly recommend this book to other readers and am looking forward to the next book in this series.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

I'm smitten....I'm completely and totally smitten with Austin, Mia, and Bailey. These three stole my heart and I don't think I'll ever get it back (and I ain't even mad about it). Austin and Mia are doing this dance, each avoiding their feelings for one another because he's the single dad and she's the nanny. Attraction that strong can only be held off for so long, though. Add in a little ex-wife drama and a dash of danger and they didn't stand a chance.

I loved that each of them was willing to fight for what they wanted. Mia, having never had a real family of her own, wasn't going to give up on the option of having one. Austin, who'd been very badly burned before (that woman was evil), was understandably hesitant to enter into any other sort of relationship. I love when fate (aka Carly Phillips) intervenes and shows them what they could have.

And Bailey? Don't even get me started on how darn adorable she is.

Another A+ read by Carly. Hot and sweet...the perfect combination.

This is book #3, in the Bodyguard Bad Boys series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. For reader understanding, and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this series in order.

Austin was not looking for anything at all. He had a bad experience with his ex-wife, who still wants to extort him even now. Having the hots for the nanny seems so cliche', but he cannot seem to keep hands or mouth off the amazing woman who watches his beloved daughter.

Mia has something haunting her from the past that is coming after her with a vengeance. She feels safe with Austin, but to put his child in harms way is not acceptable. Will love be the ingredient that makes this better?

Like all the books in this series, this one has hot hot hot sexy times. The characters are amazing, and there are conflicts that make the solution feel worthwhile. I loved the pace, banter, and sparks that were a-flyin'!

***This early copy was given in exchange for an honest review only.

I always enjoy reading Carly Phillips’ books. Tempt Me did not disappoint. Super sweet and smoke’n hot. The depth of characters and story are always interesting, expressive, and consistent throughout the book. Austin and Mia have one focus, providing a caring and safe environment for Austin’s daughter Bailey. Over time they learn more about each other and come to realize they have more in common than just caring for Bailey. While one could argue that an employer/employee relationship may have moral implications, this one only crossed that line after both single unattached parties consented to a physical relationship. Even in the face of danger and unknown circumstances doing the right thing matters to both of them. Thank you for another great read!

Austin is a single dad bodyguard to the sweetest little girl Baily Button he calls her and she is not shy by any means and is his whole world and will do anything for his little girl.Mia the nanny is a positive loving girl and fits into this family perfectly and the attraction becomes stronger and stronger until they cant fight it anymore but want different things in their life that their not willing to budge on so can this turn into something more or less as danger from their pasts threatens them both.I loved the passion and kept me on edge cheering for these two right to the end.

Amazing sexy read. Very well written story with great storyline and plot. The characters are well described and develops nicely. They are likeable and I had a great time reading this story. A story with twists that only makes it better and more captivating.
A book with lots of chemistry, passion, heartbreak and emotional ups and downs. It is about building bonds with others, give space to find themselves and let people make their own experiences.

It is written in dual POV which gives the reader much more of the thoughts and feelings of the main characters. The epilogue is very welcomed and gives the story more to it and it finishes better of than without it. The story flows nicely and it is very captivating.

I really enjoyed this book even more than I thought that I would. I have read Carly Phillips since way before digital books were a thought in the store’s head. This is one of my favorites. I don’t really know why this was different than some of the others. Maybe it’s because both Austin and Mia were genuinely nice but not push over characters. They came across as very realistic. I don’t always want to read about “realistic” characters as I read to escape and fantasize but they really captured my attention as did Bailey. She was cute but not too cute little girl. I haven’t read the first Bodyguard Bad Boys but I sure will now. I would definitely recommend this book to first time readers of Ms Phillips to long time readers such as myself.

Austin Rhodes has sworn off commitments ever since his nutcase of an ex-wife left him and their daughter. Austin has decided his daughter Bailey must be his first and only priority. The only problem is he's finding it harder and harder to resist his live-in nanny Mia Atwood. Little does he know she's lusting after him just as bad as he's lusting after her. They manage to keep their feelings for each other in check until her past comes back to haunt her. Austin needs to take over as her bodyguard and protector until he manages to wrap up her case. I loved their story and their chemistry. The addition of his adorable daughter Bailey just made the story that much more enjoyable.

I just loved this book. Austin, Mia, and Bailey were so well written, it was hard not to fall in love with them. The plot had a good amount of suspense when it came to the things that were troubling Mia and Austin. And little Bailey Button was just the cutest little thing. I really enjoyed the connection between the characters. Austin and Mia’s connection to each other grew at a good rate that had me quickly turning the pages to see what happened next. The way both Austin and Mia reacted to Bailey warmed my heart, and the little girl really stole the show.

This was a fantastic read, with everything I love about Carly Phillips books.

Kayla the mean old mommy who tries to sucker the daddy out of more money. Parker Alexander, Mia’s former employer who tries to prevent her from testifying against him. All these characters conspire to make for a great story of intrigue and suspense!

Being a Nanny comes easy for Mia, and she and Bailey have a strong bond. Austin has a lot of respect for Mia, but slowly starts to see Mia as more then just his daughter’s caregiver.
I loved ♥️ the slow burn of this book, how they both wrestled with whether or not they should get involved with each other, as they both had completely different views on relationships.
It also had a few other things going on during this story that were also awesome!
Really, really enjoyed this book!

A bodyguard for Alpha Security, Austin Rhodes is a divorced single dad who is not looking for love, marriage or any more kids. His ex did a number on him and his daughter, Bailey, and he wants to keep it all in the past.

Love, love Carly Phillips books! I think I've read almost all of them...and the covers! Holy cow the covers are smoking!!!

When Mia Atwood comes into Austin & Baileys life, feelings that he didn't want start to for . She's gorgeous, amazing with his little girl! Can he keep himself from getting deeper with Mia?
This story is full of suspense, heat, lots of feels...I loved it! I'm a big fan and as always, will look forward to the next book! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow! What an amazing story, I went through so many emotions. I love how Mia fell for Austin and his daughter Bailey. She’s the nanny. But can he resist her? It’s so HOT when they finally share their first kiss. Can they do casual? The sex scenes are definitely hot and steamy. I love how strong she is and says they can’t cross the line anymore. I stayed onedge as there’s isssues with his ex-wife. Who is threatening Mia? Can Austin protect her? I cried as something happens to her. Is she becoming important to Austin? I voluntarily read an advanced readers copy and I highly recommend this book.

Single daddy romance....ummmm yes please!! Make that single daddy that is all alpha and protective and that is written by Carly Phillips and it's like Christmas morning for me!! Austin and Mia are perfect for each other and I absolutely love Bailey!!! She is so dang adorable. Carly Phillips is one of my absolute favorite authors.

Can not wait for the next one!! MUST, MUST READ!!!!

Review by Tabitha

Really enjoyed this book! I haven't read the first in this series but I definitely will be! (does not need to be to read this story)

Mia is a live in nanny. She enjoys her job and the child in her charge. She has never crossed the line with an employer before but Austin is a hot, single, devoted father. He is the whole package.

Austin has been burned before and has no plans on ever being again. His whole life is his daughter.

Will these two be able to ward off their feelings? Will the drama that comes pull them together or push them apart?
A great book!

This book is so suspenseful that it was almost impossible to put it out of my hands!
It is a sweet romance turned into a thriller at times, exciting and fast paced, seemingly all happening at the same time, leaving one breathless and gasping for air.
It is heartwarming how both protagonists Austin and Mia, care about Austin’s little daughter Bailey and about each other, the other one always being the top priority.
This is another must read by the very talented Carly Phillips!

I received an ARC and I am leaving a voluntary review.

This book was sweetly sexy in all the right places. I couldn’t get enough! I loved the slow progression of their feelings for one another. Both trying to deny the spark for different reasons, until that spark caught fire.

Bailey was the cutest and I absolutely loved the bond between her and Mia. Mia’s past was heartbreaking and to see her nurturing spirit with Bailey was sweet.

There were a lot of components that brought this thrilling book to life. If you love second chance love stories with some suspense thrown in, you MUST read this book!

Tempt Me is the second in Carly Phillips' Bodyguard Bad Boys. CP gives us a hot alpha with Austin Rhodes, an adorable daughter with Bailey, and the nanny, Mia. I loved the hot, irresistible chemistry between Austin and Mia. Add in some twists and I couldn't stop reading until I got to the very end.

Phillips continues to deliver a satisfying romance read that I was unwilling to put down until I got every word read. As much as I enjoyed Austin and Mia, I loved Bailey. I'm hoping for more in the Bodyguard Bad Boys.

This being the second book in this series was just as good if not better than the first. In this book we follow Austin and Mia, his daughters nanny. Austin thinks he's done with marriage and family, after already going through one divorce, however life has other plans. Mias life is in danger due to an old boss, Austins protective nature kicks in, and we watch another alpha fall. I absolutely loved this book and can't wait for future books in this series. I received an arc of this book from author and am voluntarily reviewing.

Single dad and body guard Austin falls for his daughters nanny Mia following a serious situation with Mia.
Even though this was a quick read it felt complete.
It was somewhat predictable but what made this story stand on its own was their story was sweet and heartfelt. There was the no drama, no taboo, with light angst.
Easy, quick read with nothing heavy or taboo, this was the perfect read for a day at home, the park or the beach where you just wanna get lost in reading.Be back with a full review.

Tempt Me (Bodyguard Bad Boys, #2) by Carly Phillips ...I would like to thank Carly Phillips for letting me preview this book. I couldn't put it down and now what am I going to do with myself now that I've finished it.... Austin with his beautiful, sweet, funny daughter Bailey...can't help but love her. Then there is Mia ..the nanny...loves Bailey...takes great care of both of them...he wants her ....but he is over marriage and family and that's all she wants... Let's not forget his b___h ex Kayla..a woman you love to hate...This book had all the feels and I am still drying my happy tears writing this....

Wow! What an amazing story, I went through so many emotions. I love how Mia fell for Austin and his daughter Bailey. She’s the nanny. But can he resist her? It’s so HOT when they finally share their first kiss. Can they do casual? The sex scenes are definitely hot and steamy. I love how strong she is and says they can’t cross the line anymore. I stayed onedge as there’s isssues with his ex-wife. Who is threatening Mia? Can Austin protect her? I cried as something happens to her. Is she becoming important to Austin? I voluntarily read an advanced readers copy and I highly recommend this book.
