General Description: Cassie is in school for occupational therapy. However, Cassie recently lost her job and needs a new one to supplement school. She used to do Onlyfans, but that ended roughly for her. She finds a nanny job where luckily it works with her school schedule. Enter Aiden and Sophie. Aiden is a top chef and Sophie is his daughter. However, Aiden and Cassie realize they have a past. Can they overcome it without breaking their working relationship?
The good:
- Sophie is honestly my favorite character and her character growth was sweet to see.
- Aiden's characterization and growth as a father was engaging. I also felt the spice involved did not take away from the plot.
- How Cassie handled (most) situations showed her maturity and kept me thinking the entire time.
- The side characters were dynamic and added to the complexity of the plot.
The loss of a star:
- There are 2 major plot points that happen and every adult I feel becomes extremely stupid. They are pretty much smart people until these 2 plot points where they reacted poorly and I hated it. But it was fine after these plot points.
Overall, if you're looking to get into spicier books, this would be a good starter!
