Mr Daddy by Theresa Moore (Derek) Ch 1 & 2
I was supposed to meet with my blackmailer. Instead, I met my match.
Mildred
Alexander Gregory is handsome, wealthy, and intimidating as hell. He is also desperately looking for a new nanny for his daughter, Beatrice. He is not the man I thought I was meeting, and I am definitely not the woman he was supposed to interview, but I somehow end up getting the job anyway. Meanwhile, the man who has been threatening to release incriminating photos of me is still out there. I am just too busy being attracted to my new boss to pay attention…
Alex
Falling for the nanny is a complication I didn’t predict. Mildred is too young for me, too curvy for her own good, and too good with Beatrice not to notice. But as a man with plenty of demons of his own and a particularly nasty divorce under his belt, I am not fond of secrets. And Mildred seems to be hiding a big one. Too bad I want her in my bed anyway. Even if her secret tears us apart...
A short, steamy instalove story with a guaranteed HEA! Part of the Taboo Misters series, this can be read as a standalone with some interconnected characters.

Dahlias Delights
“Dahlia's Delights is a swoon worthy romance novel that is sure to sweep you off your feet. A captivating story of love and second chances.” Alyssa - Goodreads
As a teen, Dahlia Collins swore that she’d escape the sandy beaches of her little hometown of Avenel on The Hidden Banks Islands. She’d dreamt big for herself, craving the adventure and success that could only be found in a big city. But life in the big city turned tumultuous, and the overwhelming swells of betrayal and financial struggle carried her back to Avenel. Taking over Dahlia’s Delights Bakery should have been easy for her, except it wasn’t. The bakery was bleeding money. Someone was sabotaging her business. She needed to discover the saboteur and save her bakery before her hopes and dreams were crushed.
Mark Lane enjoyed a simple life in the quaint town of Avenel on the string of islands off the coast of North Carolina. His successful career as the police lieutenant was all he needed, or thought he needed, until he walked into Dahlia’s Delights. When he saw her, his world shifted. The young teen he’d last laid eyes on a decade ago was now a grown beauty. His heart double-tapped. His blood heated and strummed through his veins. Gone was the girl he’d teased in his youth. Instead, an auburn-haired beauty with emerald eyes robbed him of rational thought.
When Dahlia looked across the display counter and locked eyes with Mark, all the feelings she’d had for him as a teen rushed through her. Her stomach fluttered as desire cloaked her in a world of bliss. She was thirteen again. Falling in love with him would be so easy. Dang it, she was already halfway there.
