The Single Dad (The Dalton Family, #3)

by Marni Mann

It’s a good thing I have quite a few years before we get there. I need to prep myself.” “Daddy, I’m going to be so sassy.” “That’s what I’m afraid of.”

“The chemistry, girl. Oh my God, the chemistry.” I sipped my martini. “Really?” “His eyes were on the verge of knocking you up.”

“Man”—I shook my head—“I’m one lucky motherfucker.”

I nodded. “Yes. That one.” I downed another mouthful. “The girl I’ve been balls deep in—twice.” I drained more from my glass. “Why does this shit happen to me? I finally find a girl I would like to get to know better, and she ends up interviewing to be Everly’s fucking nanny.”

“Because I have feelings for you. Because there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for you.” I pressed my nose against hers, breathing her in. “You need to believe me when I say this, Sydney: there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for you.”
