Acceptance by L.M. Reid

An injury to my knee ends my career as a Navy Seal and sends me to the one place I never wanted to step foot in again – home.
The moment I step foot in Virginia Beach, my life takes a crazy twist. A new job, a daughter I never knew about. Being a father is tougher than any mission I’ve ever been on.
That’s when I enlist the help of a nanny.
Only the new nanny is also the woman I had a one night stand with and escaped in the middle of the night.

In order to escape my controlling ex, I have to give up everything. My home, my music career – my life.
Virginia Beach – here I come.
It seems like the perfect place to start over.
And the job ad for a live-in nanny? Exactly what I need to help me do it.
If only my new boss wasn’t the guy I had a one night stand with. The one I haven’t been able to stop thinking about since then.
For the sake of his daughter, we put a kibosh on our desires and remain strictly professional.
The sexual tension between us is undeniable, but for the sake of his daughter we do our best to keep it under wraps.
There is only so much a person can take though.
Will they be able to keep their attraction at bay? Or will tense moments turn into heated nights?
