Ethan Blackwood, a successful businessman and CEO of his own company, is a widower and the father of three children: an eldest daughter and twin boys. After the tragic death of his wife, Ethan was pressured by his family to marry his late wife's twin sister in an attempt to maintain stability for his children. However, the marriage of convenience ended in failure, leaving Ethan disillusioned and even more closed off to the idea of finding love again.  

Overwhelmed by his professional and parental responsibilities, Ethan hires Ava Morton, a kind and attentive nanny, to help create a warm and nurturing environment for his children. Ava, a determined yet enigmatic young woman, harbors a painful past she keeps hidden. Her arrival at the Blackwood household brings an unexpected transformation: she quickly forms a strong bond with the children, who see her as a motherly figure, while gradually breaking through Ethan's guarded heart.  

As unexpected feelings begin to grow between them, Ethan is forced to confront the ghosts of his past and the weight of his family's expectations. Meanwhile, Ava battles her own insecurities, fearing that her role as the nanny will forever keep her on the sidelines of a love story she dares not imagine for herself.  

Secrets and inner turmoil threaten to unravel their fragile connection, but amidst the children's laughter, stolen moments of intimacy, and unspoken gestures of love, Ethan and Ava discover that healing is possible. Together, they realize that they can build a new future, even in the shadow of the scars left behind.  

The Cradle of Hearts is a story of resilience, family, and love, where two wounded souls learn to rebuild themselves while creating a home filled with hope and tenderness for their children.  Le Berceau des CΕ“urs
