It was fun seeing an inside look at this broody billionaire. After seeing Marcus be a grump in the previous books it was hilarious to discover what a cinnamon roll he is. Penny on the other hand is incredibly clueless and the embodiment of sunshine. The two of them together are cute as can be.
The gist of it is: Marcus ends up the guardian of his teenage niece and needs help keep her out of trouble. Who better to ask than his dog walker? Because dog walking and babysitting are DEFINITELY the same profession. And yet… he manages to convince Penny she’s perfect for the job.

Fall in Love
Fall in love with absolutely every single one of these characters especially the adorable dogs that pop in and out! (OK, maybe love to hate the bad guys, but they are perfect for the role!)
Laugh, cry, cheer Penny on, and enjoy every single word of this story, I was sorry to see it end!

I've read quite a bit of Lilian Monroe's books and I have to admit there is one big reason I keep picking them and that is the whole surprise baby/accidental pregnancy trope. I know this is a wildly unpopular book trope but it is my favorite (I can't get enough) and Lilian Monroe's always deliver on this trope. I have to say that overall I enjoyed this book and the story but the writing isn't the best. I know going into these books that they can be kind of formulaic, but that doesn't bother me all that much because I know what to expect but there were some parts that were so repetitive in this book and I'm not sure if she always wrote like that and I just didn't recall but there were some moments that were so repetitive that I kind of took my enjoyment out a little bit. There were times where the author kept bringing up the same issue over and over again without elaborating (for example the whole issue between Marcus and his sister) and I just found that a bit annoying and unnecessary. I still was able to enjoy the book though and I liked the characters. I just wish the whole pregnancy part of the book lasted longer because I just a sucker for that but overall this is my type of quick and easy read that I have a good time reading.
