The Nanny
After a failed business, a brutal breakup, and one too many 'you're impossible to love' texts from her ex, Mercy Collins returns home broke, exhausted, and out of options. Moving into her sister's guest room at thirty wasn't part of the plan-but neither was becoming a nanny. Then she meets Leo Russo, a widowed single father just barely holding his life together, and his four-year-old son Luca, a messy, brilliant child who offers her a yogurt-covered goldfish cracker as a test of character she somehow passes. What starts as a desperate job becomes something tender. Safe. Domestic in ways she isn't ready for. Mercy finds herself cooking dinners, soothing nightmares, and getting pulled into the gravitational force of a little boy who trusts her too quickly... and a man who shouldn't be looking at her the way he does. Leo promised himself he'd never love again. Mercy promised herself she'd never fall for someone who needs saving. But between shared breakfasts, inside jokes, lingering almost-moments, and the quiet ache of two people rebuilding their lives under the same roof, boundaries blur... and the possibility of more becomes impossible to ignore. Loving this family could heal Mercy's deepest wounds- or destroy her heart completely. Heartfelt, intimate, and beautifully messy, The Nanny is a slow-burn single-dad romance about grief, hope, found family, and the terrifying courage it takes to choose love again.Complete
