From the NYT Bestselling author of MISTER O, comes a sexy new standalone romance…
Let me count the ways why falling into forbidden love is not my wisest move…
1. She works with me every single day. Did I mention she's gorgeous, sweet, kind and smart?
2. She works in my home. Playing with my five-year-old daughter. Teaching my little girl. Cooking for my princess. Which means…
3. She's the nanny. And that makes her completely off-limits… But it doesn’t stop me from wanting her. All of her.
***
The other nannies in this city don't call him the Sexy One for nothing. My boss, the amazingly wonderful single father to the girl I take care of every day is ridiculously hot, like movie star levels with those arms, and those eyes, and that body. Not to mention, the way he dotes on his little girl melts me all over. But what really makes my knees weak are the times when his gaze lingers on me. In secret. When no one else is around.I can't risk my job for a chance at something more…can I? But I don’t know how to resist him much longer either…
With all the heat, heart and humor readers have come to expect, this newest Lauren Blakely standalone will make you laugh, swoon and feel like you’re falling in love!
If you have a weakness for single parent romances, go ahead and exercise that one-click finger right now because The Sexy One features one of the dreamiest dads I’ve ever had the pleasure of drooling over.
Simon is a single father to an adorable five year-old girl, Hayden. Give me a successful, hot as hell grown man enjoying a tea party with his little girl, and you might as well stick a fork in me. I’m done. Abby is Hayden’s delightful nanny, and Simon’s reluctant attraction to her is adorable. He’s not only a good man; he’s a great dad. Add to that the fact that as a lover he’s both gentle and naughty, and I was ready to yell, “Check please! I’ll take one Simon the Ovaries Destroyer to go.”
The plot is light on substance, and I would have enjoyed a smidge more conflict, but let’s face it. There’s nothing overly scandalous about an unmarried man having an affair with the adult nanny. Lauren Blakely bypasses predictable drama and instead delivers a super sweet yet sexy little story. The focus is on love and laughter, and that was A-okay with me.
The Sexy One is a quick and tasty treat—a feel-good romantic comedy with just the right touch of steam on the side.
