Alessia had rules. She didn't do drama, didn't take nonsense from any man. Until him. For Cassian, she broke every one. A cliché, impossible mother in law? She handled it. Missed dinners because of work? She served herself double and waited anyway. Too tired to spend time together? She embraced the quiet hours alone. She forgot her limits, abandoned her rules. All for him. Until her. The one rule she couldn't break, the limit she couldn't cross. She saw him with her. Broken, she left and whispered a wish she never thought would come true: that she had never met him. The wish was granted. Alessia woke up and didn't remember him. But now Cassian is the one waiting. Running against time to be near her. Chasing every moment, following every rule, just so she might remember him again. And if she can't... Can he remember it all for both of them? © IcecreamSundae5.

He's everything she ever dreamed of, and she's exactly what he needs. But fate is cruel, and so is her sister. Dani Valentine and her half-sister, Alyssa Romano, grew up on opposite sides of the world. Despite her rough upbringing, Dani has always tried not to envy what she doesn't have and has steered clear of the entitled and snobby Alyssa. But when broke and hopeless is about to become lost and homeless, Dani has no other choice and accepts a rare job offer from Alyssa as a live-in nanny. This gives her a bird's eye view of her sister's picture-perfect life, including her adorable little son, Gavin, and her handsome husband, Rocco. It doesn't take long to see that perfect is an illusion, and everyone is miserable. The relationship Dani and Gavin form is instant and easy, but her bond with her brother-in-law Rocco gets messy as the lingering looks grow longer and harder to ignore. The last thing Dani intended to do was get between her sister and her family, but how can she stay away when they need her so much? Rated: M for adult language, sexual references and some adult scenarios. There are no explicit scenes. This is an angsty, slow-burn romance novel.
