TITLE: Chasing Him
SERIES: Bishop Brothers #3 AUTHOR: Kennedy Fox
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
TROPE: Single Dad Romance
RELEASE DATE: June 28th, 2018
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.
⭐️ 5 "Single Dad" Stars ⭐️
Kennedy Fox delivers another brilliant story with Chasing Him! Seriously girls, these Bishop guys are so charming! This time, it’s new single dad John Bishop’s turn to steal the show with his dreamy personality.
John was always the most mysterious of the Bishops for me. Very discreet compared to his brothers, it was exciting for me to finally unveil his secrets. He’s definitely the picture-perfect sexy country boy with good manners. When the pull between him and his nanny Mila Carmichael becomes so tempting, he continues to act as the perfect gentleman.
Seeing those two interact is so pleasant with the sexy banters that got me all smile. They are so attracted to each other, but they have a professional relationship that makes a possible romance difficult. My heart fluttered from the beauty of their romance! The slow burn is spot on and creates an incomparable anticipation. When they finally dive into this attraction, they’re magic.
What can I say about baby girl Maize? She brings such joy in Mila and John’s life! It’s sweet witnessing John with his daughter! There’s just something about single dads that always win me over in books!
The Bishop family brings a lot of amusing moments as well as some sweeter ones in this novel. I’ll never get tired of seeing the Bishop brothers teasing each other.
I adored this story and now I’m more than ready for Jackson’s story! Since his very first introduction in the Checkmate Duet, I’ve been curious about him and now with this epilogue I’m awaiting this read so much! Overall, Chasing Him is the total package! Enthralling, heart-pounding, adorable and poignant! John, Mila and little Maize completely stole my heart.

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.
