Mountain Daddy

He came to the mountains to raise his daughter in peace. She came for a holiday favor. Neither expected to break every rule of their hearts.

It’s the holiday season. With all of my teacher friends gone for winter break, I accept a short-term nanny gig watching one of my students.
Two weeks, in and out. No big deal.
What I didn’t plan on is being snowed into a cabin with the grumpiest, most frustratingly handsome single dad I’ve ever met.
Now I’m decorating cookies in his kitchen, doing bedtime in his flannel shirt, and trying really, really hard not to imagine what it would feel like to kiss him under the mistletoe.
Every time our eyes meet, the line between teacher and father blurs.
And the more I see past his rough edges to the way he loves his daughter, the harder it is to remind myself that falling for him is impossible.
But I may have to ask Santa for one night with this man. Just to get him out of my system. Even if one night couldn’t possibly be enough.

Mountain Daddy is a steamy holiday romance featuring a rugged single dad, a cozy cabin, one precocious kid, and the teacher who makes their family—and his guarded heart—feel whole again.
