Principal's Off-Limits Nanny

A Small-Town Ex-Boyfriends Dad Romance


Blurb

  • Returning to my small-town roots, I can’t believe my new job is with my ex-boyfriend’s dad.

    Vincent, a widowed principal, seeks someone to bring joy to his daughter Astrid's life. His pain and Astrid's need for a motherly figure collide.
    Accepting the job feels like stepping into a forbidden realm, given our past connection and the 18-year age gap.
    Their laughter fills my ears and warms my heart. I'm a family member. A welcome guest in their love-filled bubble.

    His vibrant eyes, shared glances, and that stolen kiss lit a million fires in my soul.
    The town gossip, an age gap, and the memory of my ex create complications.

    Yet, every grumpy, dominant inch of him stirs desires I can't ignore.
    Can I resist temptation, or will my return to Ashland rewrite our story?

    The allure of forbidden love may just be too tempting to resist.

Characters

  • Vincent Miller
    • 49-year-old Vincent is just trying to return normalcy back into his life. When his wife Gretchen passed away five years ago, it left not only a void in his heart but it completely destroyed Astrid, his now 10-year-old daughter. With the new school year about to begin, he needs to hire a nanny since Astrid gets out of school earlier than he’d get off of work. And because Astrid would rather be home after school and not in after school activities, Vincent honors that by deciding to hire a nanny.
    Faith Young
    • 31-year-old Faith has just moved back to Ashland after realizing the big city isn’t for her. It’s a breath of fresh air to be back in her hometown and even though she wishes her parents still lived there, she promises to settle into a new life there. She comes across a job posting for a nanny and decides to take the job since she loves children. Not only that but she knows the girl due to a guy she dated in the past.
    Astrid Miller
    • 10-year-old Astrid can’t seem to find the fun in life anymore. After losing her mother to heart disease five years ago, Astrid has pretty much withdrawn from wanting to play with other kids and has isolated herself. Vincent tries to be patient with her and hopes that one day, she’ll begin to feel like her old self.


Summary

  • Principal Vincent Miller is finally returning to work after taking time off. For the past five years, he had to homeschool his daughter Astrid because she was too distraught to return to school. He understood since losing a parent is a traumatic loss and he also needed time to grieve his late wife, Gretchen, who passed from heart disease. Since Astrid’s school gets out earlier than the town’s high school, Vincent decides to hire a nanny so Astrid can go home after school since that’s where she feels more comfortable. A part of him is irritated that his estranged son, Jimmy, isn’t around to spend time with his sister and help her get back to her old self.
    Enter Faith Young, returning back to Ashland after spending the last six years living in the big city. She went there chasing the thrills that big cities offer, just to realize that she’s a small-town girl at heart and she’s miserable living in the city. The con about moving back to town is that her parents have since retired and moved away. The pro is that at least her scumbag ex, Jimmy, doesn’t live in Ashland anymore. While settling in and looking for a job, she gets a blast from the past when she notices a nanny posting from Vincent. She’s always got along well with Vincent, the late Gretchen, and even spent time with Astrid before she moved away.
    Faith taking this job opens up a chance at real love and Vincent being able to get a second chance at love. Will being the father of her ex complicate matters or will they be able to overcome that obstacle, along with others that may come?
