I can't leave Baby, my Golden Retriever, by herself when she's so close to delivering, but I won't have just anyone in my home. Putting a monster price tag on this job means I get the best care possible—as well as someone who's able to play by my rules and handle my temper. But I didn’t expect her. A pretty young thing, so sweet and serious. She’s nothing like my usual flings, and that innocence of hers has me wanting what she’s never given any other man. When it comes to remaining professional or taking what I want—well, I always get what I want. NINA Inexperienced and excited...

So when a wealthy businessman requests an in-home caregiver for his very pregnant dog, I'm the first recommended, and I can’t wait to get started. His enormous package—compensation package, I mean—doesn't hurt either. But as soon as I meet my benefactor, I can tell I’m going to be in over my head. His sweet pup I can handle, but Jude is demanding and uncompromising. I’m trying to ignore my body’s reaction to him, yet I can’t help but wonder if he’s The One who can finally take charge...
