A divorced detective who is all about order gets more than he bargained when his new nanny sends his life—and his heart—spinning out of control in the latest spicy romance by USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Natasha Madison.
Finley Westbrook's life just blew up. Now, the only thing she wants is for her husband to sign their divorce papers. Just one problem: he wants half of her, and her family's, fortune. When her best friend tells her a man in her hometown needs a short‑term, live‑in nanny for his eight‑year‑old son, it sounds like the perfect escape from the mess her life has become. Sure, Finley has never had a job, but how hard can it be to take care of an adorable kid?
Single dad and small‑town detective Lincoln Burke doesn't have time for chaos. But just as his ex‑wife is about to leave for her honeymoon, a major case hits his desk. He's desperate to find a nanny, and it seems Finley is his only option. She's a walking disaster in his kitchen, can never follow a schedule—and is a dangerous temptation in his home.
The chemistry between them is impossible to ignore, but Lincoln won't risk his heart again—especially not with his employee. Yet, the more Finley pushes his buttons, the harder she is to resist. When danger closes in, what started as a temporary arrangement may cost them far more than they ever expected.
