Holy Terrors, The Lot Of 'Em!
That's what everyone considered Josh Ingalls's unruly passel of kids-secretly, anyway. No sense offending the most eligible widower in town! But Annie Martin didn't care what a "catch" her employer was. She only wanted him to admit he loved his children. And possibly share a kiss or two-okay, maybe three...!
This latest nanny was barely more than a girl herself, Josh Ingalls noted, but if a tree-climbing dynamo in trousers was what it took to manage his energetic tribe, he'd happily keep the amazing, amusing, arousing Annie Martin around forever!

A baby coming, her business failing... What else could possibly happen? Mattie wondered. Well, the father of her child could insist on becoming a permanent part of her life.
