Casey Baker has spent his life being exactly who everyone expects him to be: a charming playboy with no intention of settling down. But what no one knows is that he is a loving and devoted father.
For months, Casey has been raising his daughter in secret after her mother walked away. Mila is his world, and protecting her is his top priority. However, he can't do it alone.
Hiring a nanny should be simple enough, but then Elise walks in, and the professionalism he swore to uphold flies out the window.
She's sweet, quiet, and far too tempting for a man with questionable self-control. As Mila's nanny, she's strictly off-limits, but every shared glance and accidental touch make pretending he doesn't want her harder than it should be. Elise isn’t just off-limits—she’s inexperienced, guarded, and saving herself for the kind of love she believes lasts. And the more Casey wants her, the more he knows he can’t afford to be the man who breaks her heart.
When an unsettling situation leaves Elise in need of a safe place to stay, Casey opens his home to her. An unexpected visit from his sister makes him panic, and suddenly, Elise is forced into a fake dating situation and swept into the Baker family with open arms. Mila steals everyone's hearts, and pretending to be lovers takes a toll on Elise as they grow closer. The line between what's real and what's temporary blurs into a romance neither of them expected.
But when Mila’s mother reappears and threatens the life Casey has worked so hard to protect, everything changes. Elise must decide if she’s willing to trust a man who wants more than just a temporary arrangement, and if she’s ready to give her heart and herself to a love that was never supposed to be real.
