A Family in Need

With no teaching positions open, Georgia Marshall agrees to become the temporary nanny for the two little girls next door. But she soon becomes enamored of the precocious children and their dashing but distant widowed father. Though she’s falling for him, she can’t help but think that the nobleman is out of her reach.

After the tragic loss of his wife, Tyler Walker swore he’d never again give his heart away. Until his neighbor brightens his home and brings some much-needed stability to his motherless family. But he refuses to allow this arrangement with the pretty teacher to become permanent...no matter how much he wants Georgia by his side—forever.

“Don’t you think you could add a new lesson or two to their day?”

“Papa! She did already. We’re going to start reading lessons soon,” Polly said.

“Hmm, I’m not sure that’s enough.”

Georgia loved seeing him tease his daughters like this, but she didn’t like her reaction at his innocent wink at all. She was sure he had no idea how it affected her and she wasn’t sure at all why it had. Except that he was even handsomer than usual when he was in a playful mood like now.

“Oh, Papa, you’re teasing, isn’t he, Miss Georgia?” Lilly asked.

“Oh, I don’t know...” She played along with Sir Tyler.

“Miss Georgia!”

“In fact, now that you girls are through with your breakfast, I need to talk to Miss Geo...Miss Marshall about your lessons. So if it’s all right with her, perhaps you could go out into the garden while we have our talk.”

Georgia turned, finding Sir Tyler watching her, and something in his expression sent her pulse on a collision course straight to her heart.
