Publisher's Summary
Josie thought she was getting a promotion at her architectural firm, but instead her career implodes. She impulsively takes up her roommates’ offer to nanny for a little girl on a mega yacht in the South of France. Even though she can't stand boats, this seems like fate giving her an opportunity to lick her wounds in a bucket list paradise while she figures out how to get her life back.
But this little girl she’s arrived to look after has a daddy. A widowed, hot, billionaire of a daddy. And if there’s anything that Josie needs less than having to be stuck on a yacht, no matter how luxurious, it’s an inconvenient and highly combustible attraction to her new boss. A man who, for all his wealth, is grumpy, conceited, and utterly closed off.
Xavier Pascale is on an emotional island of his own making. It’s just him and his daughter and he likes it that way. He works hard, his shareholders are happy, and his best friends are his body guard and the people who work for him. What’s wrong with that? But then he meets Josephine Marin. Her arrival in his life is like a deep ocean tremor along a catastrophic emotional fault line. And now…well, now, he’s very, very aware of his isolation and his very human need. But he can’t be distracted. When he gets distracted terrible things happen.
He should send the nanny home. He really should. But what if he just takes what he wants, just this one time?
This is a standalone, contemporary romance. It includes luscious scenes of sparkling blue ocean; tantalizing, seductive food; as well as a smoking hot, dirty-talking Frenchman. If traveling scares you, or sexy times scare you, then this book is not for you. But if you’re looking for a decadent armchair vacation after being stuck in one place for over a year - a story that will make you laugh, swoon, fan yourself, and cry - then this one is for you!

Tension romance love lust and a few tears 😭
A great story, heartfelt characters although josey was in her head waaaaaaay too much sometimes narration adorable and fitting
Worth the read … not for those who don’t like it when it gets really mushy sometimes but perfect if you love the monologues of love

Not bad
The female narrators voice was irritating. And overall a bit obvious but ok. Cute kid.

The best Contemporary romance ever
I loved loved loooooved this book! I don’t often write reviews, but this book is worth it. I loved the characters, with the mix of slight bilingual mix ins of the French language. The descriptions of the locations and the atmosphere were amazing. I loved the slow burn lovers/haters relationship. I will definitely be reading again!
The sex Scenes were great! Highly recommend.

Fall in love in France
Great love story and you will also immediately want to spend a summer in the South of France. The author sinks you into the locations and the places almost become characters.
My only disquiet is the voice of Xavier, the narrator's voice was too old, delivery/expression was great but the juxtaposition between the character age and physical voice threw me out of the story.
I still completely recommend this book as does my husband who hasn't read it but benefited from it 😘

I nearly didn't continue with this boom upon its start but I'm so glad I did. I absolutely loved it. Best book yet. I laughed, I cried and the story was so heart felt. Thank you.

OMG! ! !
A very SLOW moving story where not a lot happens except this drawn out attraction. You have to get used to the narrator's drawl. which took a while. The best character was Dauphine! ! It was okay but so pleased to have finished it. arhhhhhhhhh!
