<p><strong>First rule of being a nanny? Don't fall for the single dad, even if he is smoking hot.</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>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.</p><p><br></p><p>All we need to do is keep our distance and remain professional . . . turns out, that's easier said than done.</p><p><br></p><p>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.</p><p><br></p><p>I tell myself it's just this once.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Okay, twice.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>All right, every night.</p><p><br></p><p>But it's got to end-he's fourteen years older than me, with a kid and a stressful job. <em>Have I mentioned my dad is his boss?</em> Then there's the past I'm trying to forget. Secrets aren't easy to keep and mine are getting too big to hide.</p><p><br></p><p>Walking away is never simple but when I do, I can't look back.</p><p><br></p><p>Even if it means leaving behind the man I was never meant to love.</p>
