The sexy single dad next door is also my best friend's brother.
And now I'm playing nanny for his son over the summer.
It's a good thing I've never been into grumpy men, because Simon Stone holds the record.
If I were smart, I'd have never taken the job for Simon. But desperate times call for desperate measures, and well, I'd have taken any job that distracted me from my personal life. Plus, it meant not going home to an empty house, and that was really all I ever wanted.
What I didn't plan for, however, was for Simon's son to tell his football team that his father and I were dating or for Simon to need me to go with it once his own mother found out. Let's not forget the time Simon kissed me one night in a dark bedroom, or when he watched me through my bedroom window as I... well, I didn't plan for a lot of things. Falling for a man who swears he'll never love again is at the top of the list.
Most of all, I didn't plan for how life would be at the end of the summer when I went back to my empty house and my lonely life. All it took was one summer for me to fall for Simon Stone, but as it seems, if I'm not careful, that might be all I ever get.
