Sweet Babysitter

Rate this book
When I get asked to be the nanny for the Morrison family, I couldn’t say no. High school graduation’s long past, and I still can’t figure out what I want to do with my life. But I’ve always loved children, especially two little girls who would love to dress up as much as I do. Only thing is, Kane Morrison is no ordinary single dad. He looks like Prince Charming all grown up, and his protective streak towards his family is sexy as hell. And when I show up, I step right into the role of the nurturing mom and wife- baking cookies with the girls by day, jumping into Kane’s bed by night. It’s like a perfect dream. Except I can’t stay asleep forever. And when the dream life I’ve been living comes crashing down on me, I’ll have nothing left of Kane and his girls… (Lila Younger writes hot, steamy romance with no cheating and a HEA every time because love stories are always a little better when they’re naughty. If you’re looking for a novella that’s guaranteed to leave your heart - and your panties!- melting, then start reading!)

Though it's not my favorite Lila Younger's book, it was still fun to read.

It's about Kane and Penny.

She's a high school graduate who doesn't know what she wants. Her mom suggests a nanny position and she loves babysitting in the past so she takes it.

He owns a company, Adrenaline Adventures. He got married young and now divorced with two daughters. He needs a nanny to help take care of them and as soon as he meets Penny, he knows he's in trouble.

He wants her but he wants them as a secret. What if they fall in love? Will he push her away? Will he realize his mistake before it is too late?

I liked the story but there's a time I wanted to kick his a** for acting like one. I loved sweet Penny. I loved how she took care of him and his daughters. How she treated them as her own.

It has a nice epilogue.

Who doesn’t love a single dad and virgin nanny romance? This is a genre that this author can write easily and I have been a fan of this author for a while.

Penny is a nineteen year old who has no direction that is until she’s asked what she wants for what is the first time. Her mother is a successful lawyer and is pushing her towards a career but what Penny discovers is what she loves is children and being a nanny is the perfect solution.

Kane is a divorcee with two little girls, with their mother living the high life of success with her books becoming films he is now a full time parent to his daughters Amelia and Amanda but he is stretched trying to run his own successful business, keeping house and trying to spend time with his children he needs help and when Penny turns up. She is a gift in more ways than one and finds himself falling in love with her but how can he be taken seriously and not be another cliché believing he is doing the right thing he pushes Penny away and soon lives to regret the decision when he realises that everything he wants has slipped away. Can he get Penny to give them another chance and will they get the HEA that they all deserve?

Main characters had great chemistry and all in all was a great safe read to warm any lonely night.

If you like Alexa Riley, Fiona Davenport, or C.M. Steele then you will love Lila Younger. Penny is 19 years old and while her friends are in college she’s still living at home not sure what she wants to do with her future. Her parents are both very successful lawyers who started their own law firm. Her mom gets her an interview to be a nanny and when she hears the salary she can’t say no. Kane Morrison started his own outdoor tour and expedition company called Adrenaline Adventures. He spent a lot of time away from his wife and two daughters making the business the success it is today. Unfortunately he’s now divorced and his ex-wife is on a six month book tour so Kane has his two daughters, Amelia (11) and Amanda (6) all to himself. He has six months to win over his oldest daughter who remembers him not being around and now feels abandoned by her mom. As soon as Kane meets Penny he knows he’s screwed and when he sees how much his girls like her their fate is sealed.

Totally Satisfying!

Professionally written and extremely fast-paced, “Sweet Babysitter” is one naughty little tale! Combining several well-known literary tropes “Sweet Babysitter” serves up plenty of taboo, insta-lust/love action with a big helping of sweet for ultimate satisfaction. Quick and oh, so dirty the story-line flows seamlessly with plenty of heat and just enough tension to be thoroughly entertaining! “Sweet Babysitter” is the perfect afternoon winter read when you just need to escape… without going anywhere!

Really loved Lila Younger’s lates. Penny is not sure what to do with her life but it’s definitely not the life her mothers has planned but she needs a job. Kane is a single dad in need of a nanny for his two girls and Penny loves children and is a perfect fit their chemistry is off the charts. But when Kane’s girls get too attached it spooks Kane will it be to late when he finally realizes his true feelings. A quick steamy read with an age gap my only complaint is that I wish it would have been longer.

We all know that I love a good steamy novella. While this was pretty steamy at times, I didn’t love the characters or the way the story progressed. I don’t see Kane being attracted to Penny for more than sex. She was a bit naive and still young minded. Maybe I shouldn’t have been reading too much into it.

If you like older man/younger woman stories then, give this one a try.

Kane & Penny
🔥🔥🔥

Penny no sabe lo que quiere estudiar, por lo que su mamá le consigue un trabajo de niñera en la casa de los Morrison.

Por su lado, Kane es dueño de una empresa de viajes, y con dos niñas (11 y 6 años), que necesita ayuda con sus hijas mientras el trabajo.

Cuando Penny y Kane se conocen sienten una atracción inmediata, por lo que semanas después, no sé resisten y terminan acostándose, acordando no decir nada a las niñas, para no confundirlas.

Pero ellas se dan cuenta, y les gusta la idea de Penny y su papá siendo novios, pero Kane se asusto, por qué no quiere confundir a sus hija, por lo que decide cortar todo contacto con Penny.

Pero enseguida se da cuenta de su error y va a buscar a Penny.

El libro es muy insta-love, y tiene diferencia de edad.

I love this trope- a single dad falling for his kid's babysitter. This book is a sweet novella with two sexy characters-Kane, a divorcee with two daughters and Penny, a 19 year old bombshell who's only ambition is... well, you'll have to read to find out.
This is definitely a SAFE romance with a HEA as is the way for this author. Kane and Penny are HOT together. It may be a short, fast read but definitely one worth reading. Hot, Hot, Hot.

I read an arc and willingly posted my review.

3.5 stars of sweet and sizzling hot fun.
Kane Morrison is in need of a nanny to help with his 2 girls and Penny steps in to help.
She's at a loose end so it's a great way of making good money.
Little did either know what would happen when they set eyes on each other.
This is a short,sweet and steamy novella that will tick your box.

Loved

Enjoyed this book so much! Penny wants to take a year off after school and her mom keeps telling her to get a job. She finds Penny a nanny position that pays well so she agrees. Kane is a single dad to two little girls and needs a nanny, but he doesn't expect to be quite so smitten with Penny when she shows up. These two were steamy together!

DNF @ 9%

The heroine babbles on about shopping and not knowing what to do in life the whole first chapter. And every little thing is described. Did I need to know she started the dishwasher? Did I need to know that her mom's haircut helps her to be taken seriously? I skimmed ahead and saw that the H and h don't even meet until 20% and decided I couldn't do it.

Virgin babysitter meets single dad and it gets very, very hot!! She is innocent and sweet and only dreams of being a mom. He is a single dad trying to get his business off the ground but when the kids are tucked in a night, sparks fly between these two unlikely characters and it is spicy!!

Historia corta, fácil de leer.

Lo que dice la sinopsis es lo que da. No tiene mucha historia así que sí solo quieren una historia tabú picante fácil de leer, den una oportunidad. No se pierden de nada si no la leen.

He leído muchas cosas, pero jamás un epílogo donde la protagonista (que de paso está embarazada) decidiera saltar de un paracaídas con su nuevo esposo para iniciar su luna de miel. Demasiado surrealista.

I like age gap and insta love but this doesn't seem to have much of a plot. Just one minute they're just hooking up and the next boom, getting married. Even for a novella, that's not much transition.

Sexy Times

The sexy times were great. Nanny romances can go either way, but this hit enough notes to be fairly decent. I enjoyed this quick, short read.

It was cute. Would have liked to see a little more interaction outside of intimacy for the instalove to be believable and a little more groveling from the H but overall a cute, quick read.
