Another fantastic book by Tayla Walker. We're drawn into the lives of Alexander and his daughter, Riley, and Amaya. She's the nanny and quickly develops a bond with her and an Instagram connection with Alexander. They can't enjoy their blossoming love for long because his ex, Riley's biological mother, has her sights set on custody because they want to be on good terms with their daughter. But he tries to prevent that by finding a solution together with Amaya.
I enjoyed their story.




I received an Advance Reader copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Definitely going to read this again

Beautiful story, if you have the right heart you can love a child that’s not your’s by birth. This story was so good it made me think of my goddaughter, she gave birth to a little boy, but wasn’t ready to raise him. I took him in and raised him as my own for 3 yrs. He was surrounded by love overflowing in my house, my children gave this wonderful little boy so much love. Just like this story some people do not know how or don’t deserve to be parents. Awesome story I see my self reading this over.

the strength of love

Alexander and Amiya hid their true feelings. When push came to shove, Alex was in need of a wife. His wife became Amiya. An awesome woman. Chef, caretaker to his daughter. Together they were a force to be reckoned with. True Love prevails

This had a sweet HEA, but getting there was a stretch. I'm surprised that more could not be done about the ex-wife.
