She’s headed for the big time…unless her heart gets stopped at the pass.

Forty-two-year-old single father Griffin Turner couldn’t have made it through colic and calving season without his mother’s babysitting services. But just when he thinks he’s got the hardest part of the infant learning curve licked, he gets devastating news. Mom is sick. And Griffin is forced to hire a nanny.

With nothing but twenty dollars in her pocket and her voice, Nola Brady wants to leave small-town Wyoming to pursue her dreams in Nashville. She answers Griffin’s ad to keep body and soul together until her big chance arrives. Love isn’t even on her radar…until she unexpectedly falls for the rough-and-playful cowboy.

Between the sheets, they’re poetry. Outside the bedroom, he inspires her to be more woman than she ever dreamed possible, which scares her enough to put on the brakes…and hit the road.

But if she thought he’d just let her leave quietly, she was wrong. Because hell hath no fury like a cowboy in love…especially one with a baby on his hip. And a ring with her name on it.

Warning: This cowboy daddy is determined to make a May/September romance work—even if he has to lay down his palm or his mouth on a round ass cheek to do it.

Nola’s mind lost track of Molly’s words. Everything around her vanished but those two dark eyes pinning her down.

A movement from Molly snapped her out of it. She looked up in time to see her sister had raised her glass in greeting to Mr. Thigh-Clenchingly Hot.

She wrapped her fingers around Molly’s arm. “What the hell are you doing? Don’t draw his attention.”

“Why not? Have you scored in the past six months? You’ve gotta be feeling the weight of that stare, sis. Why not invite him onto the dance floor?”

“No, I—” She glanced up to see him pull away from the wall and make his way across the floor. “Oh f***. Now look what you’ve done!”

She tried to duck and run into the masses, but Molly hooked a boot around her shin and sent her careening off-balance. Her beer sloshed over the floor, spattering the boots of some dancers.

“So sorry,” she mouthed, her voice lost in the stampede of boots and the cry of appreciation as someone took the microphone for an old Hank Williams song.

Two long, denim-clad legs slid into her vision. She followed the lines up, up, up to the thick chest sporting the white and gray western shirt. And hell, the fabric had a small embroidered flower design next to the pearl buttons.

A man who wore embroidery was very comfortable in his skin. Not a boy. A man.

If she’d had any question about this, she didn’t now as she stared into his face. Small lines framed his eyes and lips, and a few threads of silver wove through his beard.

She quivered.

“Wanna dance?” He offered a hand to her, and she gaped at it for two heartbeats.

Before she could think, Molly had divested her of her beer. Then her sister shoved her from behind, and Nola jerked forward. Taking her movement as acceptance, Mr. Thigh-Clenchingly Hot wrapped his fingers around hers and tugged her onto the floor.

Before she could suck in air, she was whipped into his embrace. When she did, she filled her head with his personal musk—man and clean soap. Leather.

He was smiling at her. She returned it, then gave a laugh and dropped her gaze.

He leaned in. “I’m Griffin. And before you ask, this is the first dance I’ve had in over a year. So don’t laugh at my jumbled up feet.”

How could she remain aloof to that? Everything about him charmed the pants—or mini-skirt—right off her.

“I’m Nola.” She inhaled deeply and didn’t catch a hint of beer or whiskey on him. “You’re not drinking tonight?”

The corner of his mouth tipped up. “Nah. I’m a designated driver. Love to help out the cause and my ma has the—” He bit off the rest of the sentence with a shake of his head. “My ma taught me to give back to the community.”

For several heartbeats, she lost herself in his deep, chocolate gaze. God, were those golden flecks in his eyes? And the creases around each corner enhanced the image that he perpetually squinted into the sun or smiled. Or both.

“Crowded in here,” she said a little breathlessly. The bodies hemming her in tighter to Griffin were unwelcome. Weren’t they?

Damn, she needed to get away from him, and fast. One more upward quirk of his mouth and she’d be wearing a wedding band and apron.

 

Review:

Whew….*fanning self* ok, if I had to pick one word to describe “Somethin’ Dirty”, by Em Petrova, that word would be….SEXY!  I’m seriously still trying to cool off.  I loved this book, loved the main characters…Griffin & Nola, loved the plot, loved the country thang…cause I’m a country girl and we just LOVE to get our country on!  At this point, it might be easier to tell ya what I didn’t like about the book… NOT A DAMN THANG! 

Ok…let me tell y’all a little bit about Griffin… lawd, lawd…not only is this man…yeah, MAN cause he sure as hell ain’t no 20 something grey tie wearing, obscenely rich boy…Griffin is a 42 yr old, sexy ass hard working Cowboy, he’s a phenomenal single Dad of a beautiful baby girl, owns and manages his ranch single-handily and takes care of his Mom who has just been diagnosed with breast cancer.  He just exudes confidence, magnetism and toe-curling sex appeal.  And the dirty…oh… Griffin can bring the dirty, he seems to especially like whispering it Nola’s ear.

And now for Nola…loved Nola too!  Nola’s not a shrinking violet or loud mouthed annoying party girl.  Nola’s a sweet & sassy country girl that can sing country songs with the voice of an angel.  Nola has always dreamed of going to Nashville and being discovered as the next country music break-out artist.  Nola’s got some serious chops and actually uses her head to plan and save for her future move to Nashville, she doesn’t just expect to step off the plane and be signed to a record deal on day one.  So to earn money for her Nashville dream, Nola accepts a Nanny position working for Griffin to help take care of his daughter to allow him more time to successfully run his ranch and take care of his Mom and help her with her medical appointments.  It’s not long before the sparks are flying between Nola and Griffin and sexual tension is just too much for both of them. 

So, you already know what I’m gonna say… I LOVED “Somethin’ Dirty”, even the title is wickedly awesome!  And just a word of advice… crank up you’re A/C before ya start reading, cause there’s so much heat and steam between Griffin and Nola… you’re definitely gonna need some help to cool down!  Great job Em Petrova…I’m gonna be looking for more of your books!
