Valentine Cowboy's Hired Nanny
(2026)(The first book in the Valentine Heat Chronicles series)
A novel by Cassie Wood
How did a weekend nanny gig turn into a fake family and falling for the single dad who needs me most?
I show up to Colton’s crumbling farm in a borrowed hat and a borrowed smile, and his tired eyes make my chest ache.
He is off-limits and irresistible, a father fighting for his kids while pulling me closer with every quiet look.
One reckless kiss in a steamy kitchen traps us in forced proximity as I stay to help him save the place.
I fix a well, soothe his children, and feel my heart start to slip every time his fingers brush mine.
Three moments undo me: his gentle thanks when the kids laugh again, his arm around me during a storm, and the way he trusts me with their fragile world.
That is when I realize I have fallen for him, just as an ex and a greedy developer move to take everything away.
Now court papers and an auction threaten our only home.
If this falls apart, I lose the family I never meant to claim—and the love that finally felt real.
Genre: Romance
