About this eBook

When a famous music producer moves to Lake Starlight it can’t just be a coincidence. It’s the universe helping to move things along in the right direction so that Griffin Thorne can discover me.

I have to confess—I’ll do whatever it takes to make that happen.

Confession #1: I may have overhead that he was in search of a nanny. What can I say? My brother has a big mouth.

Confession #2: It’s possible I helped along the assumption that I had nanny experience. Hey, babysitting my nieces and nephew counts, right?

Confession #3: There’s a good chance I oversold my qualifications. But my Grandma Dori backed me up, so it’s not completely my fault.

And it worked. He hired me. Only for me to find out that he left the business. 

I guess it’s on to Plan B.

When he accidentally overhears me singing, I expect nothing from him. Then he asks to work with me on a song for our town’s Founder’s Day Parade and it feels like a dream come true. Until...

Confession #4: I’ve fallen for him. 

Ratings and reviews

Loving the Bailey's and Lake Starlight. A new year and a new book from the fabulous duo authors, Piper Rayne. This book was a wonderful start to this year’s offering from Lake Starlight and the Bailey clan. We’re now on book six and it’s Phoenix’s turn.

But, L.A, didn’t supply her dream and she had to return home, now she’s just aimlessly going from one job to another. Until she discovers that Griffin Thorne is coming to town.

Griffin is a big-time music producer… or he was until he decided to leave it all behind and come stay in Alaska. He’s a single dad and needs a nanny for his young son, Maverick. In a quirk of fate, the pair meet in the bakery and before he knows what hit him, Griffin is offering the nanny position to Phoenix.

But what happens when the snow-covered slopes of Alaska are exchanged for the sandy beaches of L.A? Find out when you One-Click your copy of Confessions of a Naughty Nanny. P.S. I adored the epilogue, I was so happy and tears were running down my cheeks by the time I had finished it. I loved catching up with all the Baileys and Gram’D. I can’t wait for the next book. Bring it on, Juno!!

4.5 Stars I love those Baileys and I can't wait to devour the book when it comes out. I knew I was going to really enjoy Phoenix's book, but I didn't realize how much. I couldn't put this one down. It might have to do with Griffin being a single dad because single dad romances are my jam. I can't pass one up. Phoenix really surprised me. Getting to really know her in this book made me fall in love with her. She's a great character. She experiences what most everyone does self doubt and doesn't realize how much there is to her then she can imagine. I loved how she works her magic on Maverick and brings that little out of his shell. We get to catch up with the rest of the Bailey clan. I love seeing them enjoying their HEAs. This book has left me wanting what's coming next for this clan now! This is a must read series. If you haven't read it yet I highly recommend starting this series!!

**I voluntarily read an early copy of this title in exchange for an honest review** Confessions of a Naughty Nanny was another entertaining and awesome visit with our favorite family in Alaska! Phoenix has always been the Bailey that hasn't quite found her way. She and her twin sister Sedona are the youngest of the nine Bailey siblings and Phoenix is tired of always being looked at as a failure by the rest of her siblings. Her dream is to make is as a singer, but is that really going to happen when she's already been to LA and was forced to come home? Griffin Thorne needs a change. After years in the music business and the hustle and bustle of LA, not to mention a plane crash that had his life flashing in front of his eyes, he's ready to spend time with his son and in order to do that, they move to Lake Starlight, Alaska where he knows he'll be far away from the spotlight. When they arrive in Alaska, Griffin knows he needs to find nanny for his eight year old, Maverick. When a chance encounter puts Phoenix, Griffin and Maverick all in the same place, and Phoenix learns what Griffin is looking for, she agrees to be Maverick's nanny and in turn hopes that maybe, just maybe, getting close to Griffin will help her get the break she's always wished for. While Phoenix might not have been the traditional choice for a nanny, it turns out she and Maverick have a very sweet bond and she seems to be the best thing for him. As Griffin and Phoenix begin to spend more time together, the sparks begin to fly. While there are plenty of things that the two of them see as potential stumbling blocks, their connection is undeniable. Will the things that they were so concerned with end up causing issues in the end, or will these two unlikely matches have found their person where they least expected it? I love the Bailey family to pieces. It was nice to hear about what was going on with other members of the family and Grandma Dori was up to her usual antics, which always make it entertaining! This was a fantastic addition to the series and I can't wait for the next book. Piper Rayne definitely left us wondering how things are going to go when we revisit Lake Starlight!
