When college student Kasey Whitton takes a job babysitting for single dad Jian Li, she doesn't expect to fall in love with the newborn baby -- or with Jian.

                                                                      *****

Love is the last thing on Kasey Whitton's mind when she agrees to take an overnight babysitting job to help support her struggling family. But as her business relationship with single dad Jian Li slowly develops into something more, Kasey is surprised to find herself falling in love with him despite his hot-and-cold attitude towards her -- and the fact that she has a long-term high school boyfriend. Will her growing feelings for Jian and his newborn son be enough to convince her to risk everything stable in her life? Or will Jian's fear of commitment -- and his belief all the women in his life are cursed -- be enough to keep them apart?

Now Bryce, the leader of the rival lifeguard team from the spa across the lake, is showing interest in her. Something Rory isn't certain she trusts.

Rory finds herself in a strange new position. Two men are seemingly vying for her attention, dark secrets from her past are threatening to resurface, and the patrons are being nothing short of obnoxious.

Anshika, a shy and introverted dancer, has always hidden behind the shadows of her insecurities. Raised in an orthodox family and weighed down by past experiences, she struggles with self-doubt and the fear of being seen. In contrast, Kartikey, the confident and magnetic football captain, moves through life with a quiet assurance that commands attention. Their worlds couldn't be more different-yet fate keeps pulling them together. When Kartikey begins to notice Anshika, his persistent yet gentle nature unsettles her. He sees beyond her hesitations, recognizing the talent and strength she refuses to acknowledge in herself. But Anshika isn't ready to embrace his attention-her fears, amplified by the competitive pressures of college life, her family's expectations, and the prying eyes of others, hold her back. Despite this, Kartikey remains unwavering, patiently breaking down the walls she has built around her heart. Their journey is anything but a fairytale. It is messy, filled with misunderstandings, emotional confrontations, and moments of painful vulnerability. Anshika's self-doubt becomes a silent antagonist in their story, forcing her to question whether she is capable of love and being loved in return. As she battles her own demons, she slowly learns to extend the same compassion to herself that she so easily gives to others. Through intimate moments, shared triumphs, and difficult realizations, Anshika and Kartikey discover that love isn't just about grand gestures-it's about patience, trust, and the willingness to grow together. This book is a deeply emotional tale of self-discovery, healing, and the transformative power of connection. It's a story of two people finding not only love but also the courage to embrace their true selves.
