Billy’s not my baby daddy, but he doesn’t mind pretending to be…

I’m a Division 1 cheerleader with hopes of becoming a sports broadcaster. None of my plans for college include getting knocked up by a cheating ex who just got engaged to another girl.

When my father finds out I’m pregnant, he goes ballistic. That’s when my BFF, bad boy Billy Babcock, comes to my rescue and agrees to “take responsibility.”

Billy and I solidify our contract on a napkin—he’ll pretend to be my baby’s father, and I’ll help him clean up his image. The only problem is my father, the football coach, hates Billy. He warned me off dating players a long time ago, and he thinks Billy’s the biggest player out there.

Now that we’re in a “relationship,” Billy thinks we should spend some quality naked time together, but I’m worried about crossing that line. Because athletic guys with big muscles, intricate tattoos, and sexy smirks are my biggest weakness, and Billy ticks off all those boxes.

Can my football player “boyfriend” walk the straight and narrow for me?

Or did I just get handed off from one heartbreaker to another?

Heartbreaker Handoff is an angsty, friends-to-lovers, forbidden romance featuring a sassy cheerleader, who’s about to be a single mother, and a criminally charming football player determined to prove he’s the man for her, one sizzling kiss at a time. Heartbreaker Handoff is a dual POV standalone in the USA Today-bestselling series Varsity Dads.

Lex Martin

Lex Martin is the USA Today bestselling author of The Varsity Dad Dilemma, the Texas Nights series, and the Dearest series, books she hopes readers love but her parents avoid. A former high school English teacher and freelance journalist, she resides in Texas with her husband, twin daughters, and a bunny named Dandelion.














Roxy has a problem, the life she has all planned out has just taken a big detour, one that involves two pink lines and a lousy cheating ex. She knows the news is not going to go over well with her father, especially when she tells him the baby's father has already moved on with someone else...it's a complete disaster! Good thing she has an amazing BFF who is about to save the day...

Heartbreak Handoff is a wonderfully penned faux romance between two friends that goes horribly wrong in the best kind of way. Roxy and Billy are playing pretend for the sake of appearances and to keep Roxy out of hot water with her father, but somewhere along the way between doctor's visits and classes these two start to feel things they never expected. Billy doesn't care that Roxy's baby isn't his, he just wants to be there for both of them and give that child the best possible chance at life, even if Roxy has her reservations about going all in. I loved watching these two navigate all these new changes in their friendship and create their own little family, it was so heartwarming.

Once again Ms. Martin has created a beautiful and touching love story that not only entertains but also leaves your heart bursting at the seems with joy. These characters, as well as all of the other's in the series, are perfectly drawn and the stories they have to tell are believable and impossible to forget. I highly encourage you to meet Roxy and Billy the moment they wander onto the page they will steal every bit of your heart and attention.

I requested an advanced copy of this title from the publisher and I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased opinion.
