Publisher's summary

This cowboy has given up on love, but the new nanny might just make him change his mind. The first in a brand new series from New York Times best-selling author Vivian Arend.

A stand-alone romance novel!

Caleb Stone is wearing too many hats, and it’s making him crankier than usual. He’s a cowboy, a father, and the head of his large family - and has been since tragedy claimed his parents over 10 years ago. The ranch is struggling, but it's the title of single dad that’s got him tangled up in knots. He needs a full-time live-in nanny at the Silver Stone homestead in Heart Falls, Alberta, to help with his two little girls, but the woman about to arrive on his doorstep? Tantalizing, tempting, and trouble with capital T’s.

Tamara Coleman doesn’t regret the choices that led to losing her job, but she definitely needs a fresh start. When a friend recommends her for a nanny position in a new town, she swears this time it’ll be different. No more acting on impulse - except sexy, gruff Caleb is exactly the kind of man who pushes all her buttons. And what’s more, it’s so much fun to push his in return. Sparks fly between Tamara and her gorgeous boss, but she can’t risk her position, and he doesn’t dare risk his heart.

With two people fighting their true natures, something’s going to give. Luckily, there’s more than one way to capture a rancher’s heart.

Sweet and Heart-wrenching

Tamara and Caleb give us a sweet but heart-wrenching love story. What Caleb’s ex did to his daughters, the verbal abuse, will make you cry. Tamara is just what all the Stones need. Good performance by Tatiana Sokolov.

Sweet & sexy

Slow burn done right! Everything about this book was perfect! The storyline, the character development, the steam, the emotions and the narration.

Story lines good

The plot is cute and worth a listen; however, the narrator sounds like she's speed reading. I could deal with it if I changed the speed to
.90x It wasn't as grading on my nerves. It took some time to get used to the narration at that speed but I was able to finish the book.

Great book

I definitely enjoyed listening to this book and the narrator was amazing. I would definitely recommend this book

Sweet romance

This was a great storyline that was sweet but had enough drama to make it
a page turner.
In this book it shows you how an infilling person can screw up other people’s
life’s and how the love of someone else can turn things around.
Great characters and the two little girls will melt you heart.
The narrator did a beautiful job of bringing the characters alive.
Looking forward to the next book in this series.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this audiobook.

Good book...

Good book & can't wait to read the next one in the series... Enjoyed the narrator...

Great book!

A great romance and story! This author’s books get better and better. Love the storyline.

Cowboy Love

Single cowboy dad? Yes, please! You can’t help but fall in love with this family. Low angst and adorable little girls made this a delightful listen. The nanny and the rancher, a great combination!

a sweet romance read/listen

Single dad-nanny romance, cowboy, small town, big family, two cute little girls.

New author for me and I'm calling this a slow burn but not sure if this was just the author's normal relationship building. I also thought this was going to be a low or fade-to-black romance but the steam picked up towards the end.

The performance was good. It took a bit to warm up to Tatiana Sokolov but overall an enjoyable listen.

OMG sensual and touching

It would be amazing to find a love like that! I am glad the author delved into the main characters past and provided depth and insight, You could picture yourself on the ranch over looking the lake as the sun came up. How amazing would that be! I really enjoyed this book and felt blushed listening in on intimate affairs. Yowzers! I can see this family on the ranch creating new memories and laughing as they chase after the goats in playful interludes. Beautiful! I would love to be a Mom someday (not able to have kids) and hopefully adopt or meet someone with kids already. I will keep dreaming of that day and manifest it into existence.
