When a broke marine biology student lands a live-in nanny gig with a gruff hockey player and his sweet tween daughter, she figures it's the perfect setup—steady income, fancy digs, and zero romantic complications. Except Burgess is everything she didn't know she wanted: wounded, guarded, and absolutely magnetic, even when he's trying his hardest not to be. As Tallulah's warmth starts thawing his carefully constructed walls, the chemistry between them becomes impossible to ignore, but so do all the messy complications that come with falling for your employer. This charming sports rom-com explores what happens when two people have to choose between playing it safe and fighting for something real.

“Create a playlist called The Au Pair Affair. Sultry indie-pop and R&B with emotional depth—flirty yet vulnerable. Think Sabrina Carpenter, SZA, and boygenius energy. Witty banter meets slow-burn tension, gruff exterior softening to warmth. Contemporary romance with spicy chemistry and genuine heart.”
