Synopsis

He's a single dad. She's a damaged soul. When sparks ignite, will it be enough to heal their broken hearts?

One chance encounter broke me; another could set me free.

The moment I meet the incredibly sexy Dexter Cross, I know I'm in trouble. His intensity is electric, and I express a sass I thought was long extinguished. It's a shock to my system, but teasing him appears to be my new favorite pastime.

Accepting the nanny position for Dexter's three children will be my fresh start in life, but the closer I get to him and his children, the harder I know it will be to leave. I can only stay for one year, but all too quickly, he becomes determined to break down my walls.

He thinks I can choose them and stay, but I know better. Dexter doesn't understand my kind of damaged. My scars run deep, but so does his determination. He has his eyes and heart set on me. Even our friends are joining in on this battle, a crazy bunch of misfits who cause chaos at every turn.

Am I strong enough to let go of my past and choose love? Or are some hurts too damaging to heal, even for Dexter Cross?

Oh Avery, how do you do it!?! I love this one so much I literally couldn't put it down! Not the first, second or even third time reading it, and still can't to this day. Something about the strength of these characters really pulls at my heart and I just completely fall in love with them all over again every single time! I loved watching the little found family find their way, to one another, but also really find themselves again. Avery is good at that, amazingly strong characters that truly go on a journey and bring you along for the ride. I loved seeing Lanie put herself bac...

Oh Avery, how do you do it!?! I love this one so much I literally couldn't put it down! Not the first, second or even third time reading it, and still can't to this day. Something about the strength of these characters really pulls at my heart and I just completely fall in love with them all over again every single time! I loved watching the little found family find their way, to one another, but also really find themselves again. Avery is good at that, amazingly strong characters that truly go on a journey and bring you along for the ride. I loved seeing Lanie put herself back together and having her found family at her back, with her new found family members along for the ride was pretty darn special! I loved her connection with Julia - I have a bestie that is like a sister too, so that really hit me in the feels. And watching Dex be such a strong, amazingly patient supporter of Lanie while helping himself and his kids heal too, just WOW!! He is one alpha I will NEVER forget! Warning though, little Tate will steal your heart - its ok though, you will be happy to let him have it. Thank you for the beginning of a truly amazing world Avery and please, keep it coming!!!

Second book I’ve read by Avery Maxwell and she just gets better. By the second paragraph I had leaking eyes. Grab tissues. I wasn’t warned that I would go through a variety of emotions but I did. Be prepared and do not throw your kindle. I can not tell you how many times I wanted to go into the book and hug everyone. Did I want to cut a biotch? Several of them. I really am not a killing type but was I feeling murderous? Shiplak Yes! Also there was so much love and steam in this book. The emotions are overwhelming at times.

Second book I’ve read by Avery Maxwell and she just gets better. By the second paragraph I had leaking eyes. Grab tissues. I wasn’t warned that I would go through a variety of emotions but I did. Be prepared and do not throw your kindle. I can not tell you how many times I wanted to go into the book and hug everyone. Did I want to cut a biotch? Several of them. I really am not a killing type but was I feeling murderous? Shiplak Yes! Also there was so much love and steam in this book. The emotions are overwhelming at times.

Dexter is everything wrapped in a sexy DILF. Everyone needs a Dex in their life! Sexy, caring, protective, giving and so damn funny.

Lanie is the girl you want to be around. She is so easy to love and root for. She has had such a horrible life that you want her to get her hea! She loves with her whole heart and so giving, protective and sassy at times. She is strong.

Lanie is hired by Dexter to be his nanny for a year. It was basically lust at first sight, to friends to lovers. It was wonderful watching their relationship grow. The entire family and friends were unique and added so much to the story. You will fall in love with each one.

Favorite quote - “If you spend the rest of your life expecting things to end, you’ll miss all the beginnings, all the good.”

This is the first book I read by this author and I was blown away. Lanie and Dexter were amazing together. I loved the text threads with Dexter's friends and Julia. I found myself laughing out loud and getting strange looks from my husband. I have eagerly awaited every book Avery Maxwell has written and have not been disappointed!
