When I declared sports medicine as my major and every man narrowed their eyes, that saying proved true. It was true when my ex-husband decided I’d give up my career when our daughter was born. And again when I divorced the Chief of Police in our small town, and he made it painfully clear that I could leave him, but I would never be free.
Landing the job as the new athletic trainer for Stratford’s high school team is my chance to start over. And walking into a male-dominated sport and staff, I’m ready for the challenge.
I’m not ready for Jordan Becker.
The head coach of our championship winning team is a Herculean force of nature—as severe as he is determined. His icy blue eyes and permanent scowl drive the women in this town mad, and his quiet power and undeniable command conjure respect from every man.
When I join his team, I expect the doubt and anticipate the fight from him. And I get them both.
I don’t expect to form a friendship.
And I never expect to fall for him.
My breath catches when those cool eyes fall to my lips. My body comes alive when his is near. And as those lines begin to blur, every warning bell sounds.
My job, my reputation are on the line.
And my ex is around every corner, waiting to remind me of his power.
It’s a man’s world, and if I want to survive, I can never fall in love with Jordan Becker.
Even if he falls in love with me first.

Christy's Review:
I’ve been hooked on the Becker Brothers series since book one, and as happy as I am to get to read Jordan’s book and finally discover the one thing that’s been building through the stories, I’m sad to see them end. I’ve fallen in love with this family and I’m not quite ready to let go. Kandi ended this series with a fantastic romance between Jordan and Sydney!
Jordan is the oldest Becker brother. He was adopted at birth, but has always been just as much a part of the Becker family as the others. The only difference is he never wanted anything to do with the whiskey distillery. His passion is football and he’s the coach of a high school championship team.
Sydney is a recently divorced single mom who gets a job with the football team Jordan coaches. She’s the new athletic trainer and Jordan is worried she’ll be a distraction for the guys. She’s gorgeous. But it’s not the high school boys he should worry about, Sydney becomes the best kind of distraction for him.
Sydney Kelly was not the kind of woman you could pass by without noticing.
I loved Sydney and Jordan’s romance. They had this instant attraction, but it was more than that. Watching their romance blossom was beautiful. And my most favorite part of this book… Paige. Sydney’s daughter was amazing. I loved her relationship with Jordan and the other Becker’s as well. These characters are such a great family unit and it makes me so happy to read books like that. Books where son’s dance with their moms after dinner and towns where everyone knows everyone. Gah. I just love it so much!
Though Old Fashioned can be read as a stand-alone, there is a story line that’s been carried through all the books and I highly recommend you read the whole series to get the full effect. I loved seeing how things concluded and was happy to see how everything turned out.
Kandi Steiner does small town romances so well. I’ve adored this entire series. This was sweet, steamy, and gave me the best kind of feels. If you love a good single parent romance, pick this one up! If you’re looking for a fabulous familial series, the Becker Brothers books are must reads!
In my heart, I knew there was nothing the Becker brothers couldn’t face together.
