My brother’s best friend was always the dream. But reality isn’t always what dreams are made of.

Crushing on Roman Thomas was the easy part, actually getting to be with him was something entirely different, no matter how brief it was.
When he broke things off, I suffered a miscarriage without even knowing I was pregnant. I hid it all from everyone who cares about me, including him. Suffering alone broke something inside of me and created a bigger hole in my heart.
I never expected the void to be filled with a sweet cherub baby girl, Roman’s daughter.

Kissing Emma Keaton that night in the cove at her family’s inn changed my life. And if my best friend ever found out he’d kick my well, you know.
Being with her was the best year of my life, until she started asking me to tell her brother about us. I hesitated and I lost her.
I never would have imagined that suddenly becoming a single dad would be the thing that brought her back to me. Her family encouraged her to be my nanny and I’m just selfish enough that I took the offer. Having her in my home and in my space again is proving impossible to resist.
But when tragedy strikes, will we be able to survive it?
