If You Give a Single Dad a Nanny (Aspen Grove, #1)

by Ann Einerson

If you give a single dad a neighbor, he may be tempted to ask her to be his daughter’s nanny. And if he asks her to be his daughter’s nanny, he’ll start to have feelings for her. He’ll want to invite her over for dinner and take care of her when she’s sick, and then he’ll kiss her in the hallway and call her a “good girl” in the back of an art gallery because she’s all he’s been able to think about…

Fuck it.

“Mark my words, Marlow Taylor, when we finally get a moment to ourselves, I’m going to do much more than kiss you.”

I have this fantasy of laying her out like a canvas and tracing every inch of her with paint. She would look stunning splayed on the floor with a rainbow of colors smudged across her body while I fucked her into oblivion. I may never get the chance to make my fantasy a reality if we’re not able to find a moment alone.

when my eyes land on a painting of a daffodil illuminated by track lighting. It’s white with a peach-colored center, like the one Marlow gave Lola the day we met. My pulse races when I see the nameplate next to the piece—The New Beginning.

“It’s safe to say that listening to you come is now one of my favorite sounds.”
