About the book
He needed a nanny... Colby Daken loved his son -- but ever since seven-year-old Jamie had lost his mother, he'd been timid and shy. Jamie needed the warmth of a woman's affection to bring him out of himself. But did he want a wife? Greer knew she could help -- and she'd been secretly in love with Colby for years. She'd been devastated when he'd wed her beautiful cousin, but now Colby was free to marry again. Would he finally realize that he'd chosen the wrong cousin -- and that Greer was the perfect wife for him?
