Sydney Walker’s new job is perfect. As the live-in nanny to the most famous quarterback in the NFL and his beautiful wife, she couldn’t have it any better. Their kids are adorable. Her bosses are more than generous. Plus, there are hot football players at the house all the time. Life can’t get much better than this.
Until her life turns into an absolute nightmare. The media is abuzz with rumors that she and her boss Drew Callahan are having a torrid affair. Everyone knows the truth—except the public. So Drew’s wife Fable comes up with the perfect idea.
She creates a fake relationship between Sydney and one of the rookie players on Drew’s team. Wade Knox is forever indebted to Drew and Fable and readily agrees to the set up. Pretending to be in a romantic relationship with the hot nanny for a week—how hard can it be?
Crazy how it only takes one week for two people to fall head over heels in love…

Sydney Walker just got her first official job, as the nanny
for a NFL Super star Drew Callahan and his wife Fable and she loves it. The kids are adorable and Fable is a great
person to work for. The problem with
working for a high profit person is the media likes to twist the truth. The plan
was to create a fake relationship with Niner’s Rookie Wide Receiver, Wade Knox
but spending time together getting to know each other may be just what both of
them need.
I was given this book in exchange for and honest review.
I got caught up in Sydney and Wade’s love affair as they are
probably the most adorable couple I’ve read about in a while. They both seem to think they don’t believe in
love and yet they are both falling so hard for each other. The down fall to a fake relationship is not
truly knowing what the other is thinking or feeling. Sydney and Wade fit
together like puzzle pieces. It almost
like they were made for each other. The
sexual tension between Sydney and Wade is hard to miss. Even Fable feels it too as she tries her best
to nudge these two together.
I first was introduced to Monica’s writing in the One Week Girlfriend
Series so when I found out this book was coming out giving fans of the series a
chance to check up with Drew and Fable I knew I couldn’t miss it. I love how
Monica brought back Drew and Fable and used them to bring Sydney into Wade’s
life while getting a chance to see what’s happening in Drew & Fable’s life.
Monica did a great job of crossing the two series. As much as I loved this story I thought the
ending could’ve been better. It felt
unfinished to me. Even the epilogue didn’t
help make the ending feel like the story was finished in my opinion but don’t
let that deter you away from this book because not reading it would be a
shame. Reading it will make you fall in
love with Sydney and Wade like I did.
