Secrets and lies are a killer way to start any partnership—especially a horizontal one.



Now, I’m a glass half full kinda of guy, so, after the ‘you’re fired’ speech was directed at me, I figure now’s the time to be the screenwriter I came to sunny California to be. Unfortunately, there are about as many people trying to sell a script in L.A. as there are vegans in the pacific northwest. 



But lucky for me, a few weeks ago my agent found an investor for my script. Hooray, all my problems are solved! NOT.

Because the investor will only agree to fund my film if I use one specific actress. And that one specific actress? Well of course, it just has to be the same actress I screwed over only months before. But she doesn’t need to know about that one tiny detail, does she? All that matters is getting her to agree to do the film and I’ll do whatever it takes. We can leave the past, in the past, right?

I thought my charm would win her over. Never would I have been prepared for the terms she laid out on the table.

She needed a nanny.
I needed a lead actress.
Somehow I became The Manny.






Piper Rayne, or Piper and Rayne, whichever you prefer because we’re not one author, we’re two. Yep, you get two established authors for the price of one. You might be wondering if you know us? Maybe you’ll read our books and figure it out. Maybe you won’t. Does it really matter?

We aren’t trying to stamp ourselves with a top-secret label. We wanted to write without apology. We wanted to not be pigeon holed into a specific outline. We wanted to give readers a story without them assuming how the story will flow. Everyone has their favorite authors, right? And when you pick up their books, you expect something from them. Whether it’s an alpha male, heavy angst, a happily ever after, there’s something you are absolutely certain the book will contain. Heck, we’re readers, too, we get it.

What can we tell you about ourselves? We both have kindle’s full of one-clickable books. We're both married to husbands who drive us to drink. We're both chauffeurs to our kids. Most of all, we love hot heroes and quirky heroines that make us laugh, and we hope you do, too.

What an adorable book The Manny turned out to be!! Who would have ever guessed that a Hollywood big-wig screenwriter would turn into a full time, amazing nanny? I can tell you now that seeing a big strong tough guy taking care of children is one of the most swoonable things ever!! And Vance is a perfect nanny… and totally and utterly hilarious! I haven’t laughed so hard with a book in months!

Layla is the exactly what you’d think a soon-to-be divorced mother would look like. Having young children, she needs to have a tough heart and protect not just her but her babies. Vance and Payne’s relationship was the most adorable thing ever!! Their instant liking to each other was so just heart-warming and friggin’ adorable! I feel like Vance grew into such a wonderful man after meeting this small family… they all added so much to the other. My heart felt so full reading it… is that silly? I just love books with children in it. The children always teach us adults so much about life and love.

Now, I haven’t read any other books by Piper Rayne but this is the start of a series and you can bet your last dollar that I’m watching for all the books! I love these boys and want some funny, great things to happen for them!! This book is so much more than a RomCom… you totally feel the relationships in it! You feel the connections between the families and friends. You see a blended family form and love. Great writing! Fantastic story line! Hot and funny! It was great!

I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.
