Someone to Love, A Single Dad

Description

She's his nanny and his close friend. He shouldn't be thinking about her that way… Adrian In the year since I lost my wife in childbirth, I've been all about survival as I adapt to life as a single dad to our son. That's especially true after my mother-in-law also died suddenly. Life has been way more than I can handle, but somehow I'm getting by, thanks mostly to the Wild Widows, a group of fellow travelers who make me feel less alone with my grief. They encourage me to hire fellow Wild show more Widow Wynter as my nanny, and that's been working out great, until two things happen-she and my son go missing, and when they're found safe, I realize my feelings for her are anything but platonic. Wynter I cannot be feeling this way about my employer. He's entrusted me to take care of the most important person in his life, and I nearly screwed that up epically. After the big scare we had, I should be giving Xavier my undivided attention, which I do until his daddy is in the room. All I see is him. Then I catch Adrian having sex, and now all I can think about what it would be like to be with him that way. He's my boss, my close friend and we share many mutual friends. A mess between us would be devastating, and not just to us, so I need to avoid that at all costs. I've got enough on my plate managing my grief for my late husband. I don't need the complication that could come with Adrian. If only I hadn't seen him naked… show less
