Nio
Fostering the orphaned baby girl I rescued from a burning building isn’t part of my plan, but one look at Gracie’s adorable face and there's no way I can leave her to the mercy of the care system. I know what it's like to be alone, how it feels to lose a loved one, and I won't turn my back on her. But taking care of a six-month-old baby is tough, and it’s not long before I’m in over my head. I need help. Fast.
The new nanny I hire is supposed to ease my mind, not make me daydream about happy families. But Romy is my perfect woman, and her loving nature and pure heart set my soul on fire. I want to erase the sadness I see in her eyes, to have her to stay with us forever--not as the nanny, but as Lola's mommy and my wife.

Nio's job offer as live-in nanny for his baby daughter is a gift from heaven. The only problem is, Gracie's daddy is a whole lot of heavenly, too. The handsome firefighter makes me feel valued and safe and cared for, but I need to keep things professional. Falling in love with Nio would be all too easy but if he ever discovers my secret, any dreams I have of the three of us becoming a real family will be shattered, along with my heart.
