Description

The Castillo Family: Follow Rafael, Matteo, Javier and their nephew Santos a billionaire family they made their fortune in the construction business. When it comes to building relationships all their money can't help them when it comes to women who want what money can't buy. 

Javier Castillo might be a gorgeous, brilliant billionaire—but he's also a massive a$$hole. His only redeeming quality is how much he loves his baby daughter. A daughter he wasn't aware existed until her grandmother dumped her on him like she was returning lost luggage. Her mother is dead and her grandmother decided she couldn't take care of her after all. Okay, it's kind of amazing the way he didn't flinch from the baby thrust into his arms. He wants the best for her but doesn't believe I am it. I'm the nanny with a thirty-day trial hanging over my head.

He's trying to get me to quit, I just know it. Except I refuse to go easily or quietly, no matter how mean or rude he gets. There's no way I am going to mess up this job. If I do, I'll be homeless again. I'm positive he's just worried I'll develop a crush on him and become a clingy, lovesick pain. So why do I feel his eyes on me when he thinks I'm not paying attention? What about overhearing him warning a man away from me with a feral, jealous possessive air?

It's wishful thinking—poor, plain, fat women like me don't get the gorgeous billionaire like him anywhere but in the movies.

I'm here for his daughter, not him. Except before long it isn't just his daughter who has stolen my heart, and I wonder if maybe I'm not imagining things after all.

This is book 2 in the Castillo Family series. You need not have read the previous book to enjoy this one, and it does not end in a cliffhanger.

Trigger warning: The heroine's father commits suicide off page as her personal history. Her mother commits suicide off page during the course of the story.

    This book has everything anyone could want in a good read. The nanny, Javier, her family and his family all add the colorful yet beautiful complexity of feelings, past experiences and the need to be loved and to forgive. The exceptional love Javier has for Ava even though she isn’t his birth child is amazing. Loved this story.
  • Too much gratuitous master action

    Detracts from what could have been a heartwarming romantic dtory
  • “The first viable candidate for a nanny and I want her for more than just my daughter.”

    I knew going in that this book would be all about two people who really didn’t want to fall in love and I was 100% correct. Javier and Hope didn’t even want to get involved, despite the fact that they were instantly attracted to each other. Watching them fight their desire for one another and denying any growing feeling was a lot of fun. I love it when love overcomes even such strong resistance. Things were burning between them from the moment they met and when they finally came together, holy cow was it hot! Despite the blurb and cover photo this is not a dark romance. It is however a very adult one and definitely not even PG rated so if explicit scenes and language offends you then you should probably read something else. For thos like me who have no problem there, then this is a great book and I very much recommend it. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
