Rafe: A Buff Male Nanny | Rebekah Weatherspoon
18 posts | 23 read | 7 to read
All Dr. Sloan Copeland needed was someone to watch her kids. What she found was the man of her dreams... After a nasty divorce and a thousand mile move, Dr. Sloan Copeland and her twin daughters are finally getting the hang of their new life in Los Angeles. When their live-in nanny bails with no warning, Sloan is left scrambling to find a competent caretaker to wrangle her smart, sensitive girls. Nothing less will do. Enter Rafe Whitcomb. He's all of those things, not to mention good-natured and one heck of a whiz in the kitchen. He's also tall, and handsome, and bearded, and ripped, and tatted, wrist to neck. It doesn't take long for the Copelands to invite Rafe into their home. Just as quickly, both Sloan and Rafe find themselves succumbing to a heady mutual attraction, neither of them wants to deny. With every minute they spend under the same roof, this working mom can't help but wonder if Rafe can handle all her needs... **This stand-alone romance is fluffy. So fluffy. It's fluff. Low. Angst. Fluff. featuring a large tatted, motorcycle riding ginger man, who bakes a mean bacon quiche and knows exactly how to wrangle clever six year olds while making their mom feel loved, loved, loved.** While RAFE is a stand-alone novel here's a suggested reading order to get you to this point SATED (Fit #3) (Meegan) SO SWEET (Daniella and Duke origin story) HAVEN (Meegan) WRAPPED (Meegan, Shae, Sarah) RAFE

4/5 for this one! This was such a good steamy romance! I loved Rafe! Sloan is perfect sassy mama. The story pulled me and I couldn‘t put the book down. I will definitely read the next book.

15/100, 3☆, This was a solid erotic romance. Good characters and well done, plot driven drama. I liked that the characters were unique as this is such a broad genre. Love the BIPOC representation and the mixed-race coupling. The steamy scenes were quite steamy and very believable.

Lol! I just realized the blurb at the top! Too funny! 🤣 Anyway, I am loving the role reversal here. We have a STEM black woman and a nurturing man in this one, I thought the story was cute. I kinda hoped it was longer honestly.

What do you do when it‘s February and you‘re consciously trying to #ReadBlackAuthors more, but you‘re stressed and just want a trashy romance? I personally found a new-to-me, awesome author in Weatherspoon, ignored the questionable title, downloaded and devoured this super-sexy, sweet romance with an awesome leading lady in one Sunday night.

It‘s really 🔥🔥🔥, with solid writing and a great hook in the epilogue that led me to book 2.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

peanutnine I started with this one as well and found out afterwards that it is a spin-off character story from a longer series of hers that I now want to go back and read 4y
sprainedbrain @peanutnine oh my. Now I probably need to read that, too! I really like this author so will be on the lookout. 4y
MeganAnn I‘m feeling the same way! Want to read romances instead of the #lgp2e book and all the library books I should be reading... I started the tagged book so at least it checks the #readblackauthors box and scratches the romance itch 😆 4y

sprainedbrain @MeganAnn ooooooh. I still haven‘t read the first one in this series, but I‘ve been meaning to read Alyssa Cole. 4y
Prairiegirl_reading What about the romances written by Stacey Abrams, nom de plume Selena Montgomery? There are a bunch, I haven‘t read them but apparently they are steamy. 4y
MeganAnn @sprainedbrain I highly recommend her Reluctant Royals series - the one I‘m reading now is the last book. I‘ve loved every book in it so far! 😍 They are all available on Hoopla too if you use that. Probably not as steamy is the one you just finished, but they do have a little 🔥 Start with: 4y
sprainedbrain @Prairiegirl_reading I‘ve got her on my list, too! I go through phases when I need romance so like to keep a running list. 😉 4y
Liz_M I just listened to a code switch podcast titled “Black Kiss-story“ which refers to this list of Black-Authored Historical Romance Novels:

CarolynM Sometimes a little 🔥 is exactly what you need🙂 4y
sprainedbrain @Liz_M oh that‘s great! Thanks 😊 4y
sprainedbrain @CarolynM yes ma‘am! 😉 4y
Bookzombie I‘m pretty sure I have another one her books on my TBR list, but I definitely stacked this one and the sequel you posted too! 4y

Woot! I finished 3 books this month--better than the last two months!

First, my #BookSpin, A Squeezed Lemon by J.J. Powell. Not in the Litsy database because it's a book self-published by a friend & colleague! I loved reading his stories & poetry about his life.

My #DoubleSpin was the tagged book. I really enjoyed it! I don't read a lot of romance & this was for a challenge prompt, but it was great--sweet & sexy.

If you are looking for a book with great characters, sexy scenes, and low angst then this is the book for you. I loved every second of it. Rafe is so sweet and Sloan is awesome.

This book was awesome. The relationship has its ups and downs thanks to kids, exes and jobs, but I appreciate a novel in which both parties act like the adults they are.

I took a second #audiowalk so I could put some stuff in the Little Free Library, give Casey a treat, and finish RAFE. Multi-tasking is great.

RAFE was really good, if not as instantly charming as XENI. Aside from Sloan‘s awful ex, it‘s a very nice book about two people who connect with each other and with two smart six-year-olds. Awwww.

I forgot to take a picture on my #audiowalk because I went past Superstore and THERE WAS NO LINE TO ENTER THE STORE!!!

I rushed to buy more groceries than I‘ve ever bought in my life. Basically the only thing I wanted that they were out of was 1.75kg bags of frozen Brussels sprouts, but I got a ton of fresh ones for only $0.45 so I‘m good.

TK421 My younger self still feels betrayed that I like Brussels sprouts now. 5y
xicanti @TK421 at least your current self gets the consolation of delicious Brussels sprouts on the menu. 5y
Reagan My parents didn‘t like Brussels sprouts and I feel I was robbed until I discovered them in my 30s. 5y

xicanti @Reagan I had the same experience with chicken thighs and non-Red Delicious apples. 5y
SamAnne I had to learn to cook and like them as an adult. They grew prolific in our garden as a kid and I just hated them. Then I discovered roasting. But even fresh will keep a long time in the fridge! (edited) 5y
xicanti @SamAnne I love roasted Brussels sprouts! Some of these are destined to become slaw, too, to use on tacos. 5y

I took a coooooold #audiowalk just now. Here‘s hoping my weather app‘s telling the truth when it says it‘ll be 13 tomorrow. I need air I can‘t see my breath in.

LeafingThroughLife I tried to take a walk today and gave it up. I‘m still cold. 🥶 5y

XENI was so awesome that I needed more Rebekah Weatherspoon immediately. Now I‘m 38% into RAFE and in possession of four more face masks to pass along to extended family. #audiosewing

If the title and cover of this book appeal to you, and you like your romances on the steamy side, then I think you'll like this. It's well done, but it's wish fulfillment for a wish that isn't mine, and I personally didn't think it transcended that the way the best romances do.

“...the way Avery smashed her tiny fist to his and then practically jumped into his arms made Sloan's left and right ventricles work a little harder.“

Ugh, I don't think awkwardly throwing around anatomical terms is the best way to demonstrate that your heroine is a doctor.

Five Days at Memorial is excellent but a really difficult, draining read, so I picked up something easier as a break. I'm not sure how I'm going to feel about this one since the subtitle seems like the real selling point and that doesn't do it for me, but I have it and it fits #ReadHarder task 14: a romance starring a single parent, so I'm checking it out. #ReadHarder2020

It's been long time since I picked up a romance novel and not been able to put it down, This book had everything you want in a good light hearted read, fun, sexy and whole lot of cutie.
