Thank you to Corinne Michaels and the team at Valentine PR for the advance reader copy of Forbidden Hearts, the first book in the Whitlock Family series. I am so very excited to see Corinne taking on these tropes, who doesn’t love a single dad falling for his new nanny? This is also a return to one of Corinne’s most special settings, Sugarloaf and there may be a little Arrowood cameo or two. First rule of being a nanny? Don’t fall for the single dad, even if he is smoking hot. But that’s exactly what happens when grumpy small-town sheriff Asher Whitlock reluctantly hires me to take care of his daughter…

This frat boy may be irritatingly hot, all carved muscle with a deceptively wholesome smile, but that’s irrelevant. He’s a Sig. When I…
