Description

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Julie Murphy and USA Today bestselling author Sierra Simone comes a brand-new college town raunch-com about a sexy single dad professor and a feisty law school grad turned nanny in this steamy tale of Academic Affairs


She wants to be a good girl. Hes dying to teach her.

New to town and freshly single, rookie lecturer Maddie isnt looking for trouble until she ends up in bed with Bram a sexy, grumpy single dad on her first night.

The catch Hes her new boss at home (he needs a nanny), and her colleague at work (he's a professor, too). So to make it work, they set some ground rules:

- No more sex

- They can never be alone in the house together

But Maddies great at breaking these rules, and Brams even better at dishing out consequences
