I have to say the grumpy amazing single dad, Connor is my absolute favorite of this entire series. Connor has raised his daughter by himself while balancing his hockey career with zero help and until he injures himself and is desperate for help. Ellie is struggling with her life trying to be independent so when the opportunity to be a nanny arises, she doesn’t even hesitate. Ellie forms a connection with Connor’s daughter, Syd, and the bond they form is so special it’s easy to love them. When Ellie helps Connor while he’s injured the attraction and tension is so strong you just know it’s a matter of time before someone snaps, but Connor is strong willed for his daughter and wants to keep things easy. The banter, tension, and love for Syd will have you falling in love with this story and pulling for the characters and hoping that things fall in place for them to find their happiness, but sometimes fate throws things in their paths that create stumbling blocks to get there. I loved everything about this story except when we are told Ellie is repeatedly wearing crop tops so many times that it annoyed me to hear the words crop top lol, other than that this was absolute perfection!!!!
