Sarah
My life was supposed to be simple: teach kindergarten, avoid creepy board members, and keep a low profile. Instead, I ended up kneeing Richard Blackwood for getting too handsy and got fired.
Now I’m jobless, wearing a dress held together by bobby pins, and stumbling into an elevator where I accidentally grab a stranger’s… well, let’s say I made one hell of a first impression on Nathan Cross.
After one night of champagne and questionable decisions, I wake up alone with nothing but a note and a memory I can't forget. I tell myself to move on. Then I show up for a nanny interview and come face-to-face with my one-night stand, who’s pretending we’ve never met.
His two-year-old daughter is deaf, smart, beautiful, and really needs someone who understands her. However, his rules are ridiculous, and he? He’s infuriating, controlling, and so damn attractive I keep forgetting why getting involved with my boss is a bad idea.
The worst part? I’m already falling for both of them.
Nathan
I don’t do complications. I built my empire on control, raised my daughter alone after her mother abandoned her, and I’ve gone through more nannies than I can count. I don’t need drama; I need someone competent.
Then Sarah Roberts walks back into my life, and suddenly my organized world flips upside down.
I should keep my distance. She’s my employee. She’s too young, too reckless, too everything I swore I’d never want again.
But she makes Sophia laugh. She makes me remember what it feels like to be happy. And when she smiles at me like I’m more than just a cold CEO with control issues, I start to believe I might deserve something good.
The problem? My ex is threatening custody, Sarah's keeping secrets, and I'm terrified that loving her could mean losing everything else.
Grab your tissues and settle in for this emotional, laugh-out-loud New York rom-com where love is messy, family is complicated, and a happily ever after is totally worth fighting for. Standalone. Spicy. Guaranteed HEA.
