Part of Series
Reformed party girl Darcy is no home-wrecker nanny. Lucky for her, there’s a defensive coordinator on Team Darcy. Earlier this year, I bailed on the Martinelli job. Despite my affection for the kids, I was done being the target of narcissistic mom, Tinsley. Now, she and Josh Martinelli, defensive coordinator for the LA Bobcats, are headed for divorce, and she’s accusing Josh and I of having an affair while I was living in their home. Josh offers to help me fend off her accusations. But the more we work together, the more our attraction grows. Tinsley would use any hint of a relationship between us to prove she was right about our affair. Her accusations could cost Josh custody of his kids and undermine his position with the Bobcats. And they could cost me my life’s work. Neither of us can afford to give in to our attraction. Nor can we simply walk away. If you like a short, steamy read about an elite nanny and the elite coach who’ll risk everything to protect her, then you’ll love the Sparrow’s Nannies series.
Author
Heather Hallman writes witty, sensual, contest-winning romances set in Meiji-era Japan (1868-1912). She is the author of the Tokyo Whispers series that includes Scandals of Tokyo, Talk of Tokyo, and Toast of Tokyo. Fluent in Japanese language, history, and culture, Heather earned a doctoral degree in cultural anthropology based on fieldwork research in Japan. She lives in Tokyo with her professor husband and two young daughters. In her free time, she can be found translating ancient Japanese poetry and observing the passing of seasons while sipping green tea. Just kidding, she has no free time. But she does watch something that makes her laugh while she does the dishes. Perennial obsessions include the weather forecast (she checks three different apps at least three times a day), Baltimore Ravens football (hometown obsession), and making smoothies that taste like candy bars. Feel free to chat her up about any of her obsessions, or, even better, about historical Japan—any era is fine, she loves them all. She also enjoys exchanging book recommendations, discussions about the craft of romance writing, and stories about life in present-day Tokyo.
