CHASING HIM, the third sexy standalone in the Bishop Brothers series from USA Today bestselling author Kennedy Fox, is NOW LIVE!
John Bishop isn’t your typical single dad.
Reserved, impatient, and utterly clueless.
Running the family’s bed and breakfast has many perks. Working long hours, picking up after the guests, and hearing couples going at it all night long aren’t any of them. Hooking up with girls who come to the ranch for horseback riding lessons? Best perk of them all.
That is until a baby shows up at his doorstep with a note claiming it’s his. Growing up on a ranch was anything but easy, but raising a newborn is proving to be the hardest task he’ll ever tackle. Leaving the bachelor life behind, his only priority is to hire a nanny who can teach him a thing or two about parenting—except he doesn’t anticipate her being gorgeous and quirky with an unhealthy football obsession.
Mila Carmichael has many talents—making balloon animals, creating origami art, and remaining in the friend zone. Often seen as one of the guys, she’s struck out more times than a rookie baseball player.
Seeking a new adventure, she flies to Texas to visit family and is offered a position she can’t refuse. Helping out a new dad should come easy to her, considering her past experience, but what she doesn’t anticipate is him being an attractive Southern temptation.
But that’s only the beginning.
While growing close to his family and falling madly in love with the baby girl who’s stealing their hearts, things are bound to get complicated. Everyone knows not to mix business with pleasure. That means no late movie nights, no stolen glances, and definitely no kissing behind closed doors. Too bad the universe has other plans—one that’ll threaten taking away the main thing that binds them together.

Review
NO SPOILERS!
Chasing Him was a sweet, sexy, and entertaining standalone contemporary romance in the Bishop Brothers series, and I really enjoyed it! The storyline and characters were great, and I loved Kennedy Fox’s writing style. The Bishop Brothers series has been excellent so far, and I’m so excited to read the finale in Keeping Him!
The storyline was great for the most part. I’m a big fan of the Single Dad/Nanny romance trope, and this book certainly fit the bill. The plot was fairly predictable, which made it slow and boring at times. However, it was still enjoyable and entertaining to read.
The characters were wonderful. John, Mila, and baby Maize were amazing, and I loved them so much. I really liked John and Mila’s personalities, but I wished the chemistry had been stronger between them. It took a while for things to heat up, and I would’ve loved more of a romantic buildup. I just wished things had progressed differently in that regard. Despite some of those aspects, I loved reading the book from both John and Mila’s point of view, and all of their banter and interactions with each other. Baby Maize was so adorable and completely stole my heart. When John and Maize interacted together, it made me so happy. The same went for when she and Mila bonded. They were a perfect little family, and while there were plenty of up and down, as well as heartbreaking, moments, I was very happy with the conclusion to John and Mila’s story. The Bishop family has been a fantastic group of characters, and I absolutely loved seeing all of them again, as well as a few other ones.
Chasing Him was another sweet, sexy, and entertaining standalone in the Bishop Brothers series, and I would definitely recommend it to everyone that enjoys the Single Dad/Nanny romance trope! Kennedy Fox did a wonderful job with Chasing Him, and even though I didn’t fall head over heels in love with this book, I still really enjoyed it from beginning to end. I was very pleased with the outcome to John and Mila’s story, and I’m definitely looking forward to reading more from this author duo. The Bishop Brothers series has been amazing so far, and I can’t wait to devour Jackson and Kiera’s story in Keeping Him!

Excerpt
John’s POV
As soon as I walk into the living room, I see Mila in tight blue jeans and a low cut shirt that shows way too much cleavage.
“Nope.” Resting my hands on my hips, I look at her, trying not to stare at her chest. It doesn’t help that her nipples are hard as a damn rock either. Fuck. Eyes up.
“Nope, what?” she asks, furrowing her brows in confusion as she grabs Maize out of the swing.
“You can’t wear that shirt. Actually, we should probably set some ground rules since you’ll be staying here around the clock.”
Mila rolls her eyes and kneels down in front of the carseat. She’s dressed Maize in an outfit that says something about Grandma being her favorite, and I know Mama is going to love it. “Is that what you do ‘round here? Make rules for everyone?” She arches an eyebrow with a cocky smirk on her face.
Tilting my head, I narrow my eyes and study her. “What’s that supposed to mean?”
“Ask Jackson.” She carefully places Maize in the car seat and straps her in. I suck in a deep breath remembering the nanny rules I’d given Jackson, the ones she wasn’t supposed to hear.
“Jackson needs rules. He has zero boundaries. And it’s not like he listens to anyone anyway. Trust me. It’s an open invitation to flirting and ridiculous comments from him. So you can’t be wearing shirts like that around him.”
“…or I can’t be wearing shirts like this around you?” she quips, not paying any attention to how frustrated I’m becoming. “I think I can handle Jackson, so stop worrying yourself.”
“Whatever, Mila.”
She straightens up and looks me dead in the eyes. “You’re my boss and you can make any crazy rules you want when it comes to your baby, but you don’t get to tell me what I can and can’t wear, unless you’re instating a dress code for me and if that’s the case, I want a raise and a clothes allowance then.”
I scoff, crossing my arms over my chest that’s rising and falling rapidly. “How much for you to wear baggy overalls and turtlenecks every day?”
“You’ve got jokes, do you?” she mutters, not amused. “Why not just put a chastity belt on me too while you’re at it?”
I grunt, thinking that’s not a bad idea actually.
