The Rejected Wife: A Single Dad Nanny Billionaire Romance (The Davenports Book 5)

Rule #1 of nannying: never fall for the brooding billionaire who signs your paycheck.

Wren has already broken every rule that matters.

Tyler Davenport is six-foot-four of barely contained intensity—a former Marine who built an empire on cold calculation and even colder charm. As a single father, he's fiercely devoted to his daughter. As a boss, he's impossible. And as the man now asking Wren to be his wife? He's absolutely dangerous.

It's not a real proposal. It's a business arrangement. Tyler needs a wife to secure his inheritance from the Davenport family fortune, and Wren needs financial stability that her nanny's salary can't quite provide. Simple. Transactional. Temporary.

Except nothing about Tyler Davenport is simple.

His little girl has already started calling Wren "mommy." His eyes follow her across every room with a heat that has nothing to do with their arrangement. And when he touches her—even in the careful, deliberate way of a man keeping his distance—Wren feels the walls between them crumbling.

Tyler is gruff where she is warm, guarded where she is open, and absolutely convinced that love is a liability he cannot afford. Wren is starting to believe she might be the one woman stubborn enough to prove him wrong.

But the Davenport family has secrets darker than either of them anticipated, and some inheritances come with a cost no contract can protect them from.

The question isn't whether they'll fall. It's whether they'll survive it.
