Hiring my little sister's best friend as the new nanny for my kids? Big mistake. Isabel is fifteen years too young, too kind, and far too attractive for this to be anything but a problem. Nannying requires her to move in, living close enough to reach out and grab... Not that I would. I'm old enough to know better. She's a professional ballerina recovering from an injury, and I'm the CEO of a multibillion-dollar conglomerate. She needs a job. I need a nanny. It's a simple win-win. Wrong. It's sheer torture. Coming home late to find her curled up on the couch. To see her smile at me and ask how my day was. She's beautiful, and always around, and the thoughts I'm having soon turn inappropriate.

It's easy to forget things like age gaps and fears in the heat of passion. ¿But us together is a mistake... even if it quickly becomes my favorite one.
