Professor And The Nanny
О книге

Brittany Baldwin was helplessly in love with her sexy, much older boss. But the sophisticated college professor wanted nothing to do with an innocent like her. Well, she wasn't going to let that stop her, especially since Ethan Thorpe was the only man who'd ever made her tremble with desire.Between his toddler son and elderly father, Ethan's life was already in an uproar! There was nothing he needed less than young and virginal nurse-turned-nanny Brittany tempting his weary soul. Yet despite his vow to stay clear of the delectable beauty, he couldn't help wanting to teach her about a man's tender touch…

“I’ve always known you were off limits—

and even so I’m breaking all the rules.”

Brittany tipped her head back and looked at Ethan. “What rules?”

“I’m talking about your age. You’re so very young.”

Her eyes widened. “You don’t like young women?”

“You’re fourteen years younger than me, Brittany. Have you ever made love with a man?”

For a moment she just looked at him, then she buried her face in his shoulder. “No. I’ve never before met one I wanted to be…um…with in that way.”

Pride and regret warred within him. He brushed the hair away from her cheek. “I’m flattered that you think I might be that man,” he murmured into her ear. “I wish I were, but I’m afraid I’m not.”

“A Memorable Noel”

PHYLLIS HALLDORSON

met her real-life Prince Charming at the age of sixteen. She married him a year later, and they settled down to raise a family. A compulsive reader, Phyllis dreamed of someday finding the time to write stories of her own. That time came when her two youngest children reached adolescence. When she was introduced to romance novels, she knew she had found her long-delayed vocation. After all, how could she write anything else after living all those years with her very own Silhouette hero?

Chapter One

Brittany Baldwin’s stomach churned as she pulled over to the curb and parked in front of the white colonial-style house with two-story-high pillars that supported the overhang above the porch.

It was a lovely upper-middle-class home in a historic neighborhood of Lexington, and the man she was supposed to meet here was a professor of literature at the University of Kentucky, but was she ready for this? Her first interview for her first nursing job. She’d expected to have three more years of college before actually going to work, but then…

She shook her head as if the sharp movement could drive away the searing memories that still haunted her, then got out of the car and walked briskly up to the door. The bell chimed melodiously when pushed and the door was opened by a good-looking man of medium height with light brown hair and eyes to match behind silver-framed glasses.

For a moment they just stood there looking at each other, each waiting for the other to speak.

Finally he broke the silence. “Yes?”

It was put in the form of a question, but why? Surely he was expecting her.

“I…I’m Brittany Baldwin,” she stammered, “the medical assistant Professor Thorpe requested.”

He blinked. “You’re the nurse I asked for?”
