Millionaire ad executive Landon
Downey has a policy: no romantic relationships allowed. So when he's saddled
with his six-year-old nephew for a week, he doesn't think twice about asking
Kimber Reynolds to act as live-in nanny. What he doesn't expect is the
undeniable attraction to the woman he hasn't seen since they were kids. And not
only does she like him back-she suggests they work their way down a list of
extracurricular activities in the bedroom. How can he resist?
Kimber wants to prove once and for
all that she can love 'em and leave 'em with the best of them. All she has to
do is keep her sixteen-year crush on Landon out of the equation. No problem . .
. until she realizes she may not be the only one whose heart has gotten
completely tangled up in their no-strings agreement.
I really loved this premise, I
think it works because Kimber has been a bi tin love with Landon Downey even
before he was a millionaire. She also knows nothing about kids but since the
money could help her, she dives into taking care of Landon’s nephew for a week
anyway.
I really liked Kimber for the
most part, I did get really annoyed with her when she let her mother’s opinions
on men and marriage influence her relationship with Landon. I wanted to yell at
her, because it’s obvious she loved him and wanted to be with him, but just
couldn’t be with him because she didn’t want to give anything up. For a bit
there I thought she was pretty selfish. However, Kimber redeems herself because
I could understand some of her insecurities, it’s not like Landon is the
perfect example of commitment.
Overall, I was entertained by
the story and while it’s the third book in the series, it is easily read by
itself. I do recommend it, and while Landon is a millionaire, the difference in
wealth is not overplayed in this story.
I received a copy for the purpose of review. I was not compensated for my review.
I really enjoyed the earlier ones in the series. I've not tried this one yet but it's on my list :) She does really great millionaire/billionaire types that are so different from the current trend of them I think. Glad you enjoyed it!
