This nanny is strictly off-limits! From USA TODAY bestselling author Sara Orwig!
Rancher Cade Callahan is desperate. As guardian to his brother’s baby, he’s completely clueless, and he needs a nanny quick! Hiring his best friend’s very qualified sister seems like a no-brainer. But Erin Dorsey isn’t the scrawny kid he remembers, and the ravishing redhead has him reeling.
Cade has no use for marriage and likes to play the field. Erin is vulnerable because of a recent heartbreak, so Cade promised her brother to keep his hands off. But resisting the allure of his stunning nanny is easier said than done...
The Rancher’s Nanny Bargain is part of the Callahan’s Clan series.
“I’m as qualified as you are to give marital advice.”
“No, you’re not,” Erin teased. “You’ve never been engaged, so I’ve come closer to actually getting married.”
Cade got up and crossed the room to her. “That gives you a little experience, but I’ve got a lot because I spent fifteen years growing up as the child of a bad marriage,” Cade said. “That makes my advice more valid.”
“You were going to stay on your side of the room tonight.”
“See—this is why I shouldn’t get married. I didn’t do what I said I would. Scared of me?”
“Not in the least. I have no intention of marrying you. Now you go back to your side of the room and think about my brother.”
“I want to know something else. Give me a straight answer. Did you miss any sleep after our first kiss?”
“Cade, we aren’t going to do this.”
“I think you just answered my question,” he said in a husky voice as his gaze lowered to her mouth.
She couldn’t catch her breath.

In his office at his ranch house, Cade Callahan sorted mail that had come while he was in Dallas at his commercial real estate office the past two days. But the letters blurred before his eyes.
All he could think about was the loss of his younger brother and his sister-in-law in the last week of June. How many times would he replay in his mind the moment he imagined their car had been struck by a drunk driver? Nate had been killed instantly, and Lydia had died on the way to the hospital. The drunk driver who hit them had died at the scene.
And Cade had been left as the sole guardian of his six-month-old niece, Amelia.
A shiver went down his spine as it always did when he thought about the tremendous responsibility he’d inherited. He knew nothing about caring for a baby. Which was why he needed Erin Dorsey.
He glanced at his watch. Within minutes she would arrive for an interview for the nanny job. He had high hopes for her.
At lunch, more than a week ago, with his closest friend, Luke Dorsey, Cade had complained about being unable to find a suitable nanny despite all the interviews he’d had. Luke had a surprising recommendation—his sister.
Recalling Luke’s younger sister Erin, Cade had remembered a timid,
