Book Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Book Tropes: Baseball romance, Fake marriage, Surprise baby, Forced proximity / living together, Friends-with-benefits to lovers, Soft Dad supremacy, Accidental family, Domestic romance, Accidental yearning

Easton Bailey plays for the Chicago Colts as their flashy shortstop. He is usually the bachelor of the team. BUT, he recently received a package! A baby package! Someone dropped off a baby stating he could take care of their son better, and his name is Tanner and he is 6 months old. Now Easton has to figure out who he slept with 15 /16 months ago and where! 

Hadley's grandmother just died.  Her grandmother left her, her bookstore, but she has to be married for 1 yr and live in Chicago for 1 yr. Who can she marry? It's not like you can go up to random strangers asking you to marry them! Hadley knows she and Easton are each other's hook ups when they are board. But, once Hadley sees Easton now has a baby what is going to happen? 

Easton had guessed Hadley was the mother, that is the only person he can think of he's slept with 16 months ago. Easton needs a babysitter for Tanner when he has practice and when he has games and away games.  Hadley is the only one outside his normal friend group he trusts. With Easton asking for a favor, Hadley also asks for a favor, a marriage favor! Easton agrees to marry Hadley if she will move in and watch Tanner for him. 

With living together and already having feelings for each other will Easton and Hadley be able to keep out of each other's beds? Or will the marriage of convince become a actual marriage? 

I did receive a free ARC Book copy of this book. I am freely leaving a honest book review.

  Book Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lila Ferrante, grew up with everyone thinking she had the mind of a 5 year old. Her mother told everyone she was simple minded. Lila grew up as the baby of the family, her older brothers didn’t really spend time with her as she only played with the dolls her mother allowed her to play with. Lila and her mother would go away every summer where she would be tutored in languages, art, history, and she could just be herself on their summer get aways.

  Book Rating:    We meet most of the same characters from Book 1, Bad Bishop. I recommend reading book 1, Bad Bishop as the characters, history are explained. Book 2, picks up where Bad Bishop leaves off.      Book Tropes:  Enemies to Lovers, Second Chance, Morally grey hero,  Obsessed , Stalker, Slow Burn.  Tierney Callaghan & Achilles  met when they were teenagers and they were mostly together dating in secret through their high school days. Tierney and  Tiernan Callaghan  are twins. They were taken as babies and raised in a Russian work camp. They both have  trauma   from that experience.
