Description

Hot single dad alert!
Lauren Bishop has her whole summer planned out—working as a nanny for a desperate single dad and finding the elusive Mr. Right. She even signed up for the local matchmaking guru’s Make Love Bloom (TM) service end-of-summer guarantee! But somehow her plans got derailed because now she finds herself longing for her emotionally unavailable employer.

When his two-year-old’s molars turn his little sunshine into a demon from hell, single dad Alex Campbell finds himself longing for the simpler days of teddy bear picnics. This is a parenting nightmare! Then sweet Lauren drops into their life like an angel sent from above. Alex doesn’t do relationships, which is why he turns down every woman who comes his way, but he can’t afford to lose this nanny. Can he convince her to stay even though she’s looking for the one thing he can’t give her?

  • Lots of Hot

    Sweet and predictable HEA that was fun to read, except the sexual explicitness. The concepts broached were worthy of reading the book.

    For me this story started slow, but I stayed with it to enjoy the HEA. There were two or three grammatical errors that should have been found and corrected in editing. The fingernails on blackboard “Me and Lauren…” should read “Lauren and I…”. Thank you for considering better grammar for your college educated characters. It makes reading your work more enjoyable for descerning readers. Proper grammar is taught well before middle school in the USA. I’m only 15 books short of my 147 book total for 2023. Yes, I read for pleasure every single day.

  • Fun romp with challenges along the way

    I truly enjoyed reading Formal Arrangement by Kylie Gilmore. This is another amazing story, the fourth, in her the Happy Endings Book Club series. Elementary school teacher Lauren Bishop agreed to help Alex Campbell with his two year old daughter, Viv, during her summer break. Alex worked from home but as Viv was cutting her two year old molars he could not work, sleep, or calm her down. Lauren had the magic touch, calming Viv and keeping her active like a two year old should. The only problem was Lauren’s attraction to Alex which she refused to act on and Alex’s attraction to Lauren. Alex does not do relationships and uses the guilt he feels for causing the death of Viv’s mother to justify it. Alex can’t afford to lose Lauren as his nanny and needs to convince her to stay, but can he? This story showed another side to the world of singular parenting and that sometimes it’s okay to admit that you need a little help from your friends. I really enjoyed reading this book and had trouble putting this book down. Ms. Gilmore wove a wonderful tale and I highly recommend this book to other readers. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

    What I like best about this book is the real angst I felt for the overwhelmed single dad with his high energy toddler daughter. Yeah, he needs a nanny who’s gonna stick around, and now that he’s found one, no way is he not going to fall for her. Even though she’s not his type—too sweet, too nice, to handle his “edge” in the bedroom. Of course appearances can be deceiving. Another fun read in the Happy Ending Book Club series.

  • Fun, Sweet, Sexy Small Town Romance!

    Heartwarming, Funny, Sweet, Sexy and Overall beautifully written romantic journey of a single dad looking to raise one amazing little girl and finding he might not need to struggle alone. Lauren Bishop is a school teacher off for the summer and working as a nanny seems the perfect fit for her summer plan to find her forever love. (she even signed up for help in that area) Alex Campbell is a sexy hot alpha male that lost one love already and is so not looking to open himself to that risk of heartbreak again. His only love is his adorable two year old daughter that he lives for and is looking for a helping hand. This love story is full of heart and laughter not to mention strong family bounds.

  • Viv steals the show!

    There's nothing sexier than a single dad with a darling two year old daughter and although Alex has made Viv his number one priority he's still dealing with his grief over the death of Viv's mother in childbirth. After hiring and firing a boatload of caretakers for his precocious daughter Viv, he finds grade school teacher Lauren, who quickly becomes the most important person in both of their lives. The star of this book is definitely darling little Viv whose bubbling personality and adorable antics made me laugh out loud and witnessing the loving attention both Alex and Lauren shower upon Viv made my gooey heart melt. But never fear, this author always includes plenty of smoldering sexual attraction between her characters that will raise your heart rate and soon you'll be falling in love with this little family of 3. I read a complimentary copy of this book and all opinions expressed in my voluntary review are completely my own.
