Release Day Review ~ Bombshell by CD Reiss
From New York Times bestselling author CD Reiss, a standalone romance about a nanny, a Hollywood star, and a love they never expected.
Hollywood bad boy Brad Sinclair always gets his way, whether it’s the role he wants or the bikini-clad model he has to have. But when a bombshell gets dropped in his lap in the form of a dimpled five-year-old from a forgotten relationship, he knows his life is about to change forever.
Cara DuMont isn’t exactly thrilled when she gets assigned to be the nanny for the latest box-office king. She has one rule: no celebrity fathers, especially single ones with devilish good looks and rock-hard abs.
But as soon as Cara meets Brad and his adorable little girl, she knows she’s in for a world of trouble. Because there’s something about the way Brad looks at her that makes her believe that some rules are meant to be broken…

I love single parent romances, however the whole celebrity romance subgenre isn't one I read a lot of, but I wanted to give this one a try anyways. I am so glad I did because I loved it! For me Nicole stole the show, she was just the cutest and smartest little girl, and she made me smile a lot. I loved that the author didn't automatically change Brad into the father of the year. He had a lot of issues he had to handle, and that made him human. In the society now, we put celebrities on a pedestal and see them as people who can't do wrong.
I enjoyed seeing the different sides to Brad. As for Cara, she had her principles and tried to stick to them. The author really took her time to tell the story, there was no rushing through anything. This made it very easy for me to connect to all the characters and understand where they were coming from. I especially loved Nicole interacting with her dad, and seeing their relationship progress throughout the book. The same goes for Brad and Cara, there was a mutual respect for each other. And I enjoyed seeing them grow closer together, until they couldn't resist the other. The sex scenes were HOT (I wanted more!). CD Reiss did an incredible job with this book, I am definitely looking forward to the next books in this series.

About the author
CD Reiss is a New York Times bestseller. She still has to chop wood and carry water, which was buried in the fine print. Her lawyer is working it out with God but in the meantime, if you call and she doesn't pick up she's at the well hauling buckets.
Born in New York City, she moved to Hollywood, California to get her master's degree in screenwriting from USC. In case you want to know, that went nowhere but it did give her a big enough ego to write novels.
She's frequently referred to as the Shakespeare of Smut which is flattering but hasn't ever gotten her out of chopping that cord of wood. If you meet her in person, you should call her Christine.
