A desperate nanny with big dreams flies into chaos with a stonehearted single dad CEO in this soulful and steamy marriage of convenience romance by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Nicole Snow.

Eternal optimist and plant whisperer Ivy Daphner has ninety-nine problems and no miracle in sight. After a gig delivering flowers to a fire-breathing CEO goes wrong, she’s ready to gamble on a mysterious nanny job with a ridiculous salary.

Unfortunately, life has a twisted sense of humor.

Justin Ironbrook wasn’t always a colossal prick. He just needs a nanny who can handle his tornado of a son while he sells skeptical investors on the future of flight. The last thing he needs is the same spitfire who invaded his office with those godforsaken flowers marching in for an interview.

He certainly doesn’t expect Ivy to charm his boy and win over their ancient pet tortoise.

It’s a match made in crazy—and it works so well the stormy suit soon proposes a new arrangement: a fake engagement to polish his family image.

It’s almost perfect. Then come the pretend kisses, the passion-drenched nights, and feelings threatening to blow everything sky-high.
