Kelly Hunter | Top 5 Reasons to Fall for the Ski Champ Hero of WHAT A BACHELOR NEEDS

Hi, my name is Kelly Hunter and this is my first time at Fresh Fiction. Thank you so much for having me. A brief bio would include the facts that I’m an Aussie, a mother of boys, and a former scientist who used to grow screw-worm flies and their flesh-eating larvae for a living. Six million of them, every week. Let’s not mention the smell. Are you still with me? I became an author instead, if that helps…

My latest release is book four in Tule Publishing Group’s Montana Born Bachelor series. One small town called Marietta. Six bachelors in various stages of denial at being auctioned off like prize bulls, even if for a very good cause. My guy is ski champ Jett Casey. Jett has an ego the size of an elephant and doesn’t mind being auctioned off at all. He ends up donating his handyman services to single mom Mardie Griffin for a week.

And then sets about fixing everything in sight.

Top Five Reasons To Enjoy Jett Casey

#1. He’s easy on the eye

“I’m having handyman fantasies. Or maybe they’re Jett Casey fantasies,” said Mardie. “Either way, I’m having them.”

“Very healthy.”

“He was ripping up the carpet in the front room and all those muscles were straining…and there was bending… and rolling, and wanton sighing on my part. Have you seen that man’s butt?”

“I’ve seen it. And you are right to be impressed.”

#2. He steps in when needed

He remembered trying to get her to stay awake and talk to him, staying awake being the most important bit, and to this day he still remembered his silent curses when she began to slip into the grey of not-quite-there.

He remembered moving in and letting her lean on him when she’d threatened to topple over, and she’d been a lightweight beneath her thick winter clothing. Barely present, in body or in spirit, and he remembered telling her all sorts of random information about his own life. How he had four brothers, all older, and how as a kid he’d used to take off into the mountains, on whatever skis were handy, in order to escape all those brothers who were better, stronger, faster, and smarter than him. At everything.

#3. He knows what he wants

“This doesn’t have to be a one-night stand, or a two-night stand, or whatever it is that you’re thinking this is. There’s more if you want it.”

#4. He’s good with his hands

Oh, he is. Trust me on this.

#5. He’s a fine role model

Jett smothered a grin by taking a huge mouthful of éclair. He regretted it instantly, given that Miss Mimic over there in the high chair had immediately decided that she too would stuff her mouth with more éclair than she could manage.

He chewed.

She chewed.

He kept his mouth closed, just.

Mardie’s little girl…tried.

Resolutely, Jett averted his gaze so that he didn’t choke on his stupid smile and spoil everything. He swallowed hard. He tried not to notice a small copycat cherub.

About WHAT A BACHELOR NEEDS

Your date with ski champ Jett Casey is an either/or deal. He’ll take you off-piste for the ultimate Montana ski adventure or he’ll put his handyman skills at your disposal for a week.

Single mom Mardie Griffin has a run-down old house in need of fixing and a memory of Jett Casey as her savior in a time of great need. So when her friends acquire Jett’s services at a bachelor auction and send him to fix up her house, she sets aside her mistrust of men and lets him in.

Elite athlete Jett Casey has the world at his feet and no desire for stability. But there’s one woman he’s never forgotten and if he can help make her safe this time, maybe she’ll stop haunting him.

No strings, no sex, no commitment. Just fix things. Surely it can’t be that difficult…
