Heartless. Elsie Silver. 2023.

Working as a nanny for the world’s grumpiest single dad should have been simple. 

Except I can’t keep my eyes off him. And he can’t keep his hands of me. 

Cade Eaton is thirteen years older than me and barely looks my way, until I get him in the hot tub for a game of truth or dare. Then all bets are off - and so are our clothes. 

He’s gruff, a little rough around the edges. But it turns out broad-shouldered ranchers with filthy mouths are this city girl’s kryptonite. So who am I to resist?

And when he softens in our quiet moments together, I start to realise his hardened exterior is just a facade. Someone once convinced him that his best wasn’t good enough. Yet I’ve never felt more cherished than I do in his arms. 

My contract may say this arrangement is for only two months.

But, my heart says this is forever.
