Dee, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! We’re excited to find out more about your hero, but first, tell us about the book.
Baer and the Three Goldilocks by Dee S Knight
Genre Contemporary Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
Another erotic fairy tale with Princess Katherine and Prince Cole.
Susan Baer is not only a successful businesswoman and founder of Baer Hugs, health centers for women, she’s also beautiful. But she hasn’t always been that way. She’d spent her teen years lost, lonely and anxious, wondering if she would ever find a place to fit. Now, with those years behind her, she longs to find her special person. Though she’s not the overweight, nearsighted girl with braces anymore, she’s still lonely and there are no prospects in sight to share a happy ever after.
Suddenly, three golden-haired men come into her life. All successful, all gorgeous. And all with their own unique problems. One is too rough and hard in his treatment; one is too soft and wants her to take charge. The last is…well, let’s just say he’s not available.
Will Susan ever find the one man who’s “just right?”
Know the Hero from Baer and the Three Goldilocks
Here are some fun questions to help us know your hero.
It’s late, he’s bored. What does he do?
He runs a successful private investigation company, so he rarely has time to be bored. When he does have time, he kicks back with a beer and watches a game on TV. He’s not much for going out at night—too many crowds and loud music. Too much chance to get embroiled in trouble, which seems to find him.
What kind of food would he impulse buy if hungry?
Pizza. He loves it but has a tendency to order it too frequently. That means extra miles to run.
Describe the kind of clothes he prefers to wear.
He wears a suit to work even though it’s a fitness center and most of the staff dresses casually. When he’s not working, sweatpants and a tee mean it’s downtime.
Does he know how to fix things?
Yes. He’s been a bachelor a long time and doesn’t like to pay for things he can do himself, so he’s learned how to do lots of stuff. The Internet is a great thing!
He tried to do something and it went badly. Tell us about it.
When he first lived on his own, he tried to help his sister wire a new stereo and somehow knocked out the lights to the whole house. After cursing a bit, he called an electrician. It was an expensive mistake but made him determined to learn about wiring.
In this book, he is undercover, disguised as a gay man because that’s the only male employee Susan Baer would hire. He played his part so well she didn’t believe him when he tried to come clean and admit his love. That’s a backfire that set him on his heels!
How does he act around children he doesn’t know?
He likes kids in general. In specific instances, he’s happy to be able to hand them back to their parents and walk away. Mostly, he’s funny and genial, but doesn’t go out of his way to be around children.
What is he like first thing in the morning?
Ready to go. He says he sleeps the sleep of the pure—HA! But he’s a good morning person.
Can he use chopsticks?
Gosh yes. Can’t everyone?
Does he drink coffee? If so, how does he take it? If not, what does he drink instead?
Coffee. Lots of it.
What apps would he have on his phone?
Candy Crush (he’s addicted), Wall Street Journal, a cable news app, ID Check
Android or iPhone?
iPhone
Beard or clean-shaven?
Clean. He might have a beard if he could get through the growth period. Whiskers itch.
Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?
One tattoo—he was a Marine. It’s a right of passage to mark the occasion.
Personal vehicle or public transport?
Personal transport. He loves his SUV.
Recycle or toss?
Recycle. He loves his SUV but he’s not a total jerk.
Thanks for helping us get to know your hero!

A woman with a broken heart…
A soldier who never dreamed he’d become a duke…
Phoebe Smythe, Countess of Borwick, suffers a tragic miscarriage when she learns her husband and young son have been killed in a carriage accident. The grieving widow retreats to an isolated cottage on the coast of Cornwall, where she finds a smuggler who’s washed ashore, blood leaking from a bullet wound.
Captain Andrew Graham returns home from the Napoleonic Wars after the death of his older brother, finding his father on his deathbed. Soon he becomes the Duke of Windham and must deal not only with numerous responsibilities but his wayward half-brother, who has amassed a mountain of debt and then shoots Andrew so he can become the new duke.
Andrew awakens to an angel of mercy, Mrs. Smith, a middle-class widow who nurses him back to health. She thinks he’s a criminal, which amuses him, but he soon falls in love with her beauty and spirit. On the day he decides to ask for her hand in marriage, she disappears and he has no way to find her – until he spies her across a London ballroom.
Though her heart belongs to the Cornish smuggler she left behind, Phoebe places herself once more on the Marriage Mart. She yearns to be a mother again – which means finding a husband.
What will Phoebe do when she learns that her Mr. Andrew is none other than the famous Duke of Renown?
