Summary
When twenty-two-year-old Charlotte Heywood accepts an au pair position in Martha’s Vineyard, she’s looking for summer adventure before starting her teaching career. She’s not prepared for Xander Colbourne—thirty-two, divorced, devastatingly attractive, and determined to maintain professional distance despite the tension crackling between them from the moment they meet.
Xander knows hiring Charlotte is a mistake. She’s too young, too vibrant, too everything he’s been trying not to want since his marriage imploded. But his daughter Leo needs her warmth and enthusiasm, so he tells himself he can control his attraction...A multichapter modern AU that unfolds across a beautiful summer - it is mostly drafted and will be 15 chapters long. Hope you enjoy.
