Romance | Romance Contemporary

Paige Stewart is the nanny to a sweet little boy unfortunately she has fallen for the child's father. Matteo Renaldi is not a sweet man; he's a handsome, sexy devil that has Paige feeling the torture of seeing him daily knowing he is beyond her reach. She's finding that it can be hell being TEMPTED BY HER BOSS.

Matteo doesn't have time for dating; he is a workaholic with the only outside interest being his son Matty ... and very recently his son's nanny. The beautiful carefree woman has entered his home and breathed life back into it. But he believes she is too trusting and naΓ―ve for an embittered widower.

A trip to Italy to visit his family home the couple closer and slowly they allow themselves to fall in love. All is well until a particularly ugly rumor from Paige's past explodes in their faces. They might escape unscathed but will their hearts? Will lies be believed or will the heart know the truth?

TEMPTED BY HER BOSS is a sweet contemporary with the flavors of Italy dancing through the pages. Paige, though having been through a trauma that could have shaken anyone's faith in people, remains sweet and trusting. Matteo who has everything but no one to love is blindsided by Paige. They brought out the best in each other. I also loved little Matty and how he stood up to his father when Paige disappeared demanding he bring her back home. Author Karen Erickson has written a feel good happily ever after story with just the right touch of spice that can be read over and over again.

SUMMARY

Business? Meet pleasure… The Renaldis, Book 1 Paige Stewart has committed the ultimate nanny sin—she’s fallen in love with her boss. She adores Matteo Renaldi’s sweet, precocious son. Who wouldn’t? But it’s torture going about her day-to-day tasks, catching fleeting glimpses of the boy’s enigmatic father. Chastising herself for fantasizing she’s in the Renaldi master bed… It’s ridiculous, pointless. After all, soon little Matty won’t need her anymore and she’ll move on. Matteo has no interest in dating. He’s consumed by work, his son…and his son’s nanny. She’s everything he’s not: young, carefree, trusting, maybe a little naïve. She deserves better than an embittered widower. Yet when she accidentally falls into his arms, he can’t resist drawing her in for a kiss that quickly spirals out of control. As they travel to his family’s home in Italy and slowly fall in love, the whispers start. And when one particularly ugly story blows up in their faces, their reputations might escape unscathed, but their hearts may not… Warning: The sexy, grumpy Italian hero is finally won over by his son’s sweetly beautiful nanny—though it was quite the challenge for her to catch him. Watch for lots of high drama, passionate love and malicious rumors before these two can find their HEA.
