Work Me Up (Riggs Brothers Book 3) Kindle Edition

Baseball player. Single dad. Hot mess. No woman has ever tamed him… until now.

Everyone knows Ryan Riggs—everyone who follows minor league baseball, that is. He's the player with the hair-trigger temper, the bad shoulder, and the smoking hot looks. He's also a single dad in need of a nanny—which makes him my new boss.

Simple. Except for one thing: We had a one-night stand five years ago.

We're trying to be professional. But it was one of the best nights of my life, and the more I work with him, the more I'm thinking about a repeat.

He's battling his demons, and I might be the only one who can help him win.

He's impossible.
He's unforgettable.
He's unwinnable.
Looks like I have my work cut out for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars So hot.

Love Julie Kriss, and this was another solid winner. She writes such sexy, strong, but unbelievably sweet alpha males that I damn near have to fan myself after reading some of her books. This was another great read.
I loved how the story overlapped with the ones I'd read previously in the series - though you don't need to read the others to understand what's going on with this one. Ryan was super sweet with his son, and the son had a unique personality all on his own, without being just a token kid thrown in to bring the grown-ups together. Kate is an interesting character, though I would have loved to have learned more about her, and the way she reacted to the curveball towards the end didn't endear her to me, but she came around.
One other complaint about this one... might be a spoiler, just FYI, but no one is going to give up painkillers cold turkey for a kiss. I have some experience around people with addictions - all kinds - and that portion just rubbed me the wrong way.
Also, Julie Kriss' books are too short. I never get enough by the end.

This is the 3rd book in the Riggs Brothers series and it was as good as the other two. “Bad boy” Ryan was nothing like I expected him to be but turned out to be the best of the brothers (IMO). He took responsibility of Dylan and did what was best for him. The only complaint I have is that it was a little short, HEA with no cliffhanger. Can’t wait to read Dex and Lauren’s book!

I love this Riggs men! The title is perfect here because Ryan Rigg has Worked Me Up. He is the bad boy of baseball with the almost otherworldly good looks and swagger to match. When he reconnects with this one night stand from 5 yrs ago the sparks fly.

This is a wonderful quick read, fast paced but developed book. Give it a try and enjoy being worked up.

Ryan Riggs, the baseball player with a bad boy reputation. He has been benched due to a fight on the field as well as a shoulder injury. Various appointments with Doctors can’t seem to tell him what the problem is. Could it be more psychological? As a single Dad to Dylan, his life is in a bit of mess and routine never runs smoothly, is it time for a nanny to help him? Kate has a degree but has no idea in what direction she wants to go. With nothing to lose she applies for the job as a nanny. But there is one small problem; Ryan and Kate have past history? The attraction between the two is strong, but they are trying to keep it professional. Will they cross the line? What happens when Ryan decides to go back home, will Kate go with? And what Drama is waiting for the two? Overall I love this series. The story has enough drama and angst to keep you reading. The pace is perfect and the characters are adorable. I can’t wait to read Dex story.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay but anti stripping attitude seemed hypocritical
Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2022

I've enjoyed the series so far. Decent reads. But I was really thrown when the brothers and their girls were so critical of Ryan getting paid to work without a shirt. What is wrong with doing that? Why would it bother Kate that he did it? How is it a supposed lack of self respect? He's basically low key stripping and there's nothing wrong with that profession. Yet additionally, there are several negative comments about strippers. It especially seems hypocritical of the author to express that view when they are writing graphic sex scenes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ryan & Kate (& Dylan)
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 12, 2023

Ryan is the second oldest Riggs brother and the one of the 4 with a different mother. He's only 4 months younger than Dex and their relationship has always been difficult. But I love the 'Dexpunch' story!
Kate turns up on his doorstep, with a recommendation, to interview to be Nanny for Ryan's son Dylan. These stories all continue from one book to the next so we already knew Ryan hired a hot nanny and that previously she'd worked as a pet sitter 🤣 Dylan is a very cool kid and Ryan tries hard to be a good father but knows his limitations (frequently late, swears in front of his kid). But he's working hard to provide stability, doesn't date and makes effort to understand and reduce his son's anxieties. He's done remarkably to parent by himself after the poor example of parenting he had.. and the contrast between how the Riggs boys were treated as children and allowed to be feral compared to the emphasis on safety and his worries about his son being kidnapped are funny but sad.
Then along comes Kate to shake up Ryan and Dylan's world. Kate had an uncharacteristic one night stand with Dylan as part of a rebellious phase 5 years ago. Both adults remember and acknowledge the night but decide it shouldn't prevent Kate from working for Ryan. However, the attraction is still there.. how long before they give in to it and what happens then with Ryan being Kate's boss?
This series keeps getting better and better. Despite the short length of these books, they pack in a lot of story content, emotional depth and character development. I am enjoying seeing the changes in how the brothers get along with each other as one by one they are falling in love with good strong women.

Reviewed in Australia on November 15, 2019

Ryan was the one I really wasn't looking forward to reading mainly due to the fact that he had a kid but wow! Was I surprised. Ryan certainly stepped up and I just loved that he wasn't the "dad of the year" material but his son loved him and he loved his son. Putting an ex pet walker in the mix was a funny option but one worth enjoying.
