SHANE MILLER SLEEP DIARY:
Went to
bed at: Late.
How long
it took to fall asleep: Forever. I have insomnia. Duh.
Number
of caffeinated beverages you had consumed: Zero. Thanks for advising me to
quit!
My stress level is off the charts.
I can’t sleep right on a normal day, and lately my days are filled with
the best kind of chaos.
My ex-wife and husband number two are filming in Poland for three
months,
so I’m turning down movie parts to focus on the most important role of
my life—
impossibly charming and somewhat capable young single dad.
My son won’t stop asking questions.
My daughter won’t brush her teeth unless I sing her showtunes.
Our regular nanny quit.
The only person I could trust to hire as a temp nanny is my best
friend’s sister.
If Mary Poppins and Bill Murray had a baby it would be Willa.
Fresh out of grad school and beautifully weird.
She hates my movies, and my kids adore her.
I couldn’t sleep last night because she wasn’t here.
Turns out I can’t sleep unless she’s in my house now.
Turns out she’s what’s been missing from my life all along.
If my friend had any idea what I want to do to his gorgeous
troublemaker of a sister,
he would smother me with a pillow.
The chances of us succeeding as a couple are about as good as that
little indie movie
that I made being a huge hit.
But it’s a chance I’m going to take.
Before writing steamy romantic comedy novels, Kayley Loring
got a BFA in creative writing from a Canadian university and had a fifteen-year
career as a screenwriter in Los Angeles (under a different name). She mostly
wrote PG-13 family comedies that studios would pay her lots of money for and
then never make into movies. In 2017 she decided to move to the Pacific
Northwest and write about all the fun stuff that she wasn't allowed to write
about in those PG-13 scripts. Now she’s breathing cleaner air and writing
dirtier words. It’s an adjustment she’s happily getting used to.

I have never read anything by this author before and I highly enjoyed this romance. It is a standalone and is an actor/Hollywood leading guy romance with his besties little sister and nanny/boss romance.
The star of this story is Shane, a single dad of twins who he loves but who drive him crazy. He is low on sleep and his ex who he gets along with is off in Europe on location so he needs a nanny asap.
Enter his best friend whose sister is visiting and who was a nanny in Europe. Now she is in the United States and wants to launch her perfume company and needs a place to work on her scents and so her brother fixes these two up, with a job.
Willa met Shane when she was 12 years old and had a HUGE crush on him but in the years between he has married and had babies and also divorced. So when they start spending time together its Willa's dream come true.
This was a very fun story. Technically it takes place in Malibu/Hollywood but we don't really see that much of the typical scene. This is much more of a nanny/boss/single dad romance and its done really ell and I loved it.
