New Orleans firefighter, James Reynaud’s true love is hanging out in the jazz clubs on Frenchmen Street and playing piano with some of the best musicians in the city. But driving his cute, bookworm neighbor Harper Broussard crazy is right up there on his list of favorite things.
The buttoned-up linguistics professor across the hall is a little older, a lot smarter, and way too good for him. And she knows it. But wow is she beautiful when she blushes.
She’s equally gorgeous when she’s saving his butt. Because now things just got serious. A baby has been, literally, dropped off on his doorstep and to say he’s in over his head is an understatement. Not that Harper knows anything about babies either. But at least they now have something in common.

Excerpt:

Harper reached out to lift the baby off of James, but just as her hand touched his back, James stirred. She froze. “Professor?” His voice was husky from sleep, low and gravelly, and Harper’s belly flipped, heat sliding from her stomach lower, between her legs. They were in his bedroom. One of them was in bed. And that voice. And the nickname. She could hardly be blamed for her reaction. “Hey,” she said softly. “You okay?” It was the middle of the night, and he was the one asleep with the thing that had just turned his life upside down, but he was asking about her? She never came to him with needs. He came to her. She nodded. “I thought I’d take him so you could get more comfortable.” He looked down at the baby, and seemingly instinctively, his hand slid from the baby’s butt to his back. James’s hand was huge on the tiny baby, and Harper swallowed hard at the sweet picture. “He’s okay.” “You sure? I don’t mind.” He looked up at her. He was clearly still sleepy, maybe not fully awake. “You wanna help?” he asked. She nodded. “Yeah.” She felt terrible for leaving earlier. It had gone against every instinct except the one that screamed at her to protect her heart no matter the cost. But she was afraid she was far past the point of that being possible. “Then come here.” Harper wet her lips. “Come… there?” “Yeah.” He reached for her with his free hand and caught her around the wrist, tugging her forward. She could have easily pulled back, broken free, resisted. But she let him urge her onto the mattress. Harper knelt with a knee next to his hip. “How does this help?” “Gets you up against me,” he said, his voice still sleep roughened. Her heart skittered. “That’s helpful?” “Can’t imagine how it will hurt.” He gave her a sleepy, but still devastatingly sexy smile. “This way you’re here if he does need something.” Well, he had a point. Harper stretched out on the mattress beside James. He put his arm up above his head again, not holding her, but definitely exposing plenty of surface area for her to be up against. Oh, what the hell. She wouldn’t sleep well at her place now, wondering what was going on over here. This way she was very much here for whatever went on. And she’d wanted to be up against him for a few months now. Lord only knew what the next few days were going to bring with the baby and everything. She might as well enjoy this moment while she had it. She scooted closer. His body was hot and hard. She swallowed with some difficulty. Then the baby made a little grunting sound and curled and stretched against James. This was so not how she’d ever pictured being in bed with James Reynaud. That was for sure.



Oh how I loved being back with the Boys of The Big Easy. I loved the characters of firefighter, James Reynaud and professor Harper Broussar, neighbors who are drawn to one another. James loves to tease and torment Harper and that led to quite a few humorous encounters. Harper is determined not to be impressed by the oh so hot firefighter and I loved her spirit.
James is such a caring and swoon worthy man who ticked all the boxes. For me Harper was the opposite of what James had always gone for but was in fact the missing piece to fulfil him. I loved the build of their relationship as Ms.Nicholas wove a story that had me absolutely captivated from the first to the last chapter.
I loved the friendship and camaraderie that James and Harper share not only with each other but with their friends. Adding in a baby left on Jame’s doorstep and you know that heart strings are going to be tugged and emotions will be hire..
This is a fun, romantic, sweet, steamy, and at times emotional story that was a great addition to the series. I felt as though I was witnessing their relationship as it grew and that added an additional layer to the story.
Ms. Nicholas writes stories that draw me in and get me invested with her characters right from the start. If you haven’t read any of the other books in this series, do yourselves a favour and one click when you can, I don’t think you will be disappointed.
A fitting end to a series that was one of my favourites of 2019.



Getting Off Easy is such a fun, enjoyable read!
And it all started with an olive tree...
This book is filled with humorous moments, unexpected situations and two characters that have incredible chemistry as they navigate all the obstacles thrown at them.
It is their mutual thoughtfulness and caring nature that has brought Harper and James closer throughout this story. They find a way to mutually care for a tree, a lizard, a puppy and a surprise that you will have to read the book to find out about. I highly recommend this book! You will not be disappointed!






Getting off Easy is book 4 in the Boys of the Big Easy series and can be read as a standalone.

This was the first book that I've read in this series and it was fantastic!

James Reynaud is a firefighter and a jazz pianist. He spends his days thoroughly enjoying life to the fullest. His friends and colleagues all know that he's a loyal and reliable friend to them and that they can go to him and he'll be there for him. Even members of the community that he interacts with know this about him.

James has a neighbour that lives across the landing from him in his apartment complex in New Orleans. She's a linguistics professor at the local university. She's prim, proper, studious and likes to keep to herself. When he starts knocking on her door asking her if she knows about trees, or lizards or even dogs she always answers and helps him out.

Harper's character is amazing. She's a professor but is very kind and loving. She's always there to help her students when they need her and apparently she's also there to help her hot, firefighting neighbour. But when James knocks on her door one night and asks her if she knows anything about babies she doesn't know what to do.

The adventure that James and Harper undertake makes one hell of a book. I loved how they got to know one another while also raising a baby that they know nothing about. The relationship develops seamlessly and naturally.

I really enjoyed reading this book and look forward to reading many more from Erin Nicholas.
