About this ebook

When purity and passion collide...

Nanny Maisy Edmonds is furious when a stranger tries to take her orphaned little charge – stealing a shockingly explicit kiss from her into the bargain! Can infamous tycoon Alexei Ranaevsky really be the child’s godfather? Installed in Alexei’s remote Italian villa, Maisy is intent on protecting little Kostya – and nothing else...

Alexei’s childhood-turned-nightmare means he allows himself no emotional attachments. But Maisy’s beguiling sweetness has the uncompromising Russian determined to seduce her down from her inexperienced pedestal...

Ratings and reviews

i thought this book was wonderful! although it is cliche i found it incredibly hard to put down, and have read it three times in 24 hours! just what any girl needs to cheer herself up. i loved the characters, and i felt myself identifying with them and picturing them in my head, comparing them unintentionally to real life current celebrities and what i imagine they go through at certain times. Its written beautifully, and i love the fact that the love scenes (or sexy scenes as my great grandma calls them) are mild and not too brasque - i mean, this is one book that both my great grandmother (who is nearly 95) and myself (now the wrong side of 30) are happy to share, so doesnt that tell you something? I love the characters, as i have already said, i love the description of the surroundings, and the subtle twists and turns are lovely, intrigueing and made me want more! i think there should, or could be a further story, turn this into a series of 'the brotherhood' maybe, or maybe even the story of when the parents first met?... this book has left me feeling happy, and wanting to read again, and i may even have a go at writing something myself in the future. Thank You Lucy for a lovely story x
