After one too many fights with the paparazzi and more than a few trashed hotel rooms, his agent holds an intervention. He needs to shake his bad boy image and work on a squeaky clean and wholesome new look if he wants to keep his career on track.

When a man from Violet's past threatens to destroy the world Hayden and James have created for her, questions are raised. Hayden must navigate his newfound fatherhood and do what he can to protect the little girl he'd do anything for. Even if that means breaking his heart in the process. Can Hayden really have his career, his daughter and a man to love by his side? And can James really put his heart on the line for a man who's afraid to love him in public? Daddy and the Manny is a full-length novel about love, discovery, and family. It contains some steamy scenes and a whole lot of sweetness and of course has a wonderful HEA.
