George Richards, a divorced single father, needs to find a replacement for his nanny of two years. His brother Erik and sister-in-law Robyn suggest their now homeless neighbor Valerie to become the new live-in nanny. With their high recommendations, George takes the leap of faith and hires Val, only to end up falling for her. Valerie Adamson is newly divorced and has to sell her home to pay off debts that her ex-husband has created. She takes the live-in nanny job only because she has no place else to go. She isn't in the market for a man and wants to remain on the outside of George and Jess' family while still being a good employee. What she doesn't realize is whether or not she's in the market, she's already sold! Meet George, his little bit of a daughter, Jessica, and his new nanny Val. Find out what happens when you throw a perfect stranger into your daily mix. And then what happens when boss and nanny become more than just friends!
I loved this book! The characters are so easy to relate to. I have found that with all of Rida Allen's books the characters are so HUMAN. They are people I would like to get to know, and be friends with. I literally read it in a few hours, and was not able to put it down. Rida writes the ultimate beta hero, and this story is no exception. I was very sorry to see this book come to an end. It was so lovely to see two (three including his sweet daughter) come together first as friends, then as lovers. I loved every minute of it.
