Losing everything in New York? Rough. Running off to a tiny town in the Scottish Highlands? Maybe a little dramatic. Taking a nanny job for a hot but insufferably grumpy ferry captain? Clearly I wasn’t thinking straight. Yeah, Lachlan Munro’s six-year-old son is utterly adorable. Even his golden retriever, who acts like he’s on a sugar high 24/7, manages to win me over. But the man himself? Ugh! Does he look ridiculously sexy in that uniform? Maybe. Okay, yes, but that’s beside the point. His surly attitude and obsessive routines have even my sunshiny optimism fraying at the edges. At least I’m not staying in his home. No, I’m tucked away in the guesthouse out back, with a gorgeous view of the sea. But one night he’s taking out the trash, I’m getting changed, and… I may have left a crack in the curtains. Our eyes meet. He blinks. I shriek. I swear I’m not a flasher. Just a victim of tragic timing–and my apparent inability to shut a curtain properly. We both pretend it never happened. Except now I keep catching him staring at me. And occasionally I glimpse something softer behind that grumpy exterior. Well, whatever. It doesn’t matter. Because there’s no way I’m getting involved with my emotionally unavailable boss. — Captain of My Heart is the first book in the Scottish Single Dads series of interconnected standalones. Perfect for fans of grumpy × sunshine, small town romance, and swoony Scottish single dads with brogues as deep as the sea. ?
