He hires her to save his son. He never plans on risking his heart.
One rule should keep the peace: the nanny lives by the schedule, and the boss keeps his distance. But when quiet nights become confidences, and a little boy's laughter starts returning to a house built on grief, distance turns dangerous.

Quinn Harper takes the live-in job for one reason—give six-year-old Jackson someone steady to count on. Beckett Hayes, a guarded tech CEO and widower, believes order is the only way to keep the world from breaking again. Quinn brings warmth he doesn't trust, boundaries he tries to enforce, and a calm that soothes the boy who stopped speaking after the funeral.

Whispers from the staff. Watchful neighbors. In-laws with sharp questions. An ex at the door. Every new crack in Beckett's control pulls Quinn closer—to the kitchen where he finally laughs, to the hallway where she waits out nightmares, to the charged edge of a kiss neither of them can afford. When a career-making offer threatens to rip their fragile trio apart, Quinn must choose between the future she planned and the home they're all learning to be.

Slow-burn and forbidden, tender and intensely emotional—Claiming the Nanny is a contemporary nanny/boss romance about a man relearning hope, a woman brave enough to stay, and a child who shows them what family feels like.
