About this listen
First rule of being a nanny? Don’t fall for the single dad, even if he is smoking hot.
But that’s exactly what happens when grumpy small-town sheriff Asher Whitlock reluctantly hires me to take care of his daughter for the summer. Neither of us is thrilled with the arrangement, but he’s desperate for help, and I need the money for grad school this fall.
All we need to do is keep our distance and remain professional. Turns out, that’s easier said than done.
Instead of focusing on my future, all I see is the strong jawline, crystal-blue eyes, and rock-hard body right in front of me. We try to resist each other, but we end up crossing every line until I’m in his bed.
I tell myself it’s just this once.
Okay, twice.
All right, every night.
But it’s got to end–he’s 14 years older than me, with a kid and a stressful job. Have I mentioned my dad is his boss? Then, there’s the past I’m trying to forget. Secrets aren’t easy to keep, and mine are getting too big to hide.
Walking away is never simple, but when I do, I can’t look back.
Even if it means leaving behind the man I was never meant to love.

In one second, my life disappeared. My past. My memories. My future. The only certainty I have from the last three years is that my older brother is dead and that I am the only eyewitness. In order to protect the case, the lawyers demand no one give me any information about my life...I must remember on my own. My only help comes from my brother’s best friend and world-renowned investigative reporter Spencer Cross. He has no idea how many nights I’ve spent dreaming of his name—and his body—next to mine. Each day we spend together, I find it harder to want my old life back.

In the beginning, there was Savannah Shaw. Teasing me with a mischievous, merciless grin by day. Crawling through my window with tear-stained cheeks by night. I was ordered to avoid her. Lectured on her misdeeds. Forbidden from seeing her. But my need to protect her was innate. So natural I never questioned it. So visceral I couldn’t fight it.

It all started with an unexpected phone call. Two years after my fiancé passed away in an accident, his father died suddenly, leaving Brad’s adult special-needs brother with no one to care for him. The next thing I knew, I was on a cross-country drive to New Hampshire where I’d be moving in to look after Scottie until I could get him into a group home. The last thing I ever expected? I wouldn’t be taking care of him alone.

At least I'll finally be rid of his farm, which is grown over and tangled with memories I've fought to forget. And that’s when I find her. She’s even more beautiful than I remember and has the most adorable kid I’ve ever seen. Years have passed, but my feelings are the same, and this time I refuse to let her go. They say you can't bury the past, and they're right.

3/5 STARS 4/5 SPICE
Okay, so three stars? Only because of the ending. Now it’s really hard not to spoil this book because the whole certain part I didn’t like is the spoiler. So I’ll try and explain without spoiling. The book starts off with Phoebe's life falling apart. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong. She had been secretly hooking up with her professor. Who lied and manipulated her. She had no idea he was married with a kid. Anyway, the two of them get caught. And she can’t handle the backlash at school so she leaves early. She was in her first year of grad school to work somewhere in the field of audiology. So she leaves school and moves back home. Her dad the chief of police is immediately suspicious of her leaving but she explains that she was able to finish online. Then the leader of his SWAT team calls. His nanny fell through and he can’t go to work. But the chief really needs him. So they agree that Phoebe will help the nanny in the meantime. However!!!! Phoebe and this SWAT team leader have a history of sorts. She babysat for him before. And his sweet daughter cut off all her hair….PAUSE so the SWAT team leader is this sexy cop named Asher, he has a nine-year-old daughter who is deaf. She is able to communicate through ASL and some lip reading. And boom Phoebe is fluent in ASL, loves kids and dreams of working in audiology to help people with hearing impairment. So perfect match up! But Phoebe is stubborn and heartbroken. Asher is grumpy and way too sexy for his own good. It’s so good! Of course, this is a small-town nanny x grumpy cop romance. Age gap! How could it be more perfect? Now reasons why this wasn’t a 5-star for me. The ending. I didn’t like the way certain things were revealed and connected. It felt fake to me. It was sweet how devoted Asher was but for me, it was a bit much. I don’t think this took away from the story it’s just not my perfect ending.
The spice was spicing. I’d give it a four for frequency but it was out of this world. The chemistry at the start got me but towards the end it was repetitive. The voice actors were convincing.
I listened to this through audible and the audiobook was so good!!!! The actors got the roles perfectly! I found the story to be vivid and addicting. I could see all of them signing to each other and it was precious! This book did in my opinion a great job of showing how a family works to support their child with hearing impairment. We see the struggles that Olivia faces and how she is an amazing child who is no different from any other. This is actually I really well-written child. I babysat A LOT growing up and even did nanny gigs. To me, this was a real nine-year-old child.
This review is beyond long but I wanted to include this. My brother is deaf. Growing up I went to appointments constantly and this book was so real. I can remember him having appointments for speech therapy, hearing aids and moulds, new devices for the classroom, Educational Assistants, microphones for teachers, Bluetooth phones, tubes, and puppet shows with all kinds of noises. I didn’t think much of it as a kid but looking back he missed school for this and connecting to others wasn’t always perfect. It was extremely sweet to see real representation in such a bright way. I’d say a big thumbs up to Corinne Michaels for creating a story that shared a real experience rather than what she wanted. If that makes sense.
