About this listen

Riley Emerson is probably the last person anyone would expect to be a nanny.

For starters, her life has fallen apart. Her boyfriend just cheated on her. She lives with her mom, and she might have a drinking problem.

But Oliver Brian is desperate. His daughter, Zoe, has refused to go to sleep for anyone else in four years and with his career, Oliver can't always be there for her. Riley is only supposed to watch Zoe for one night, but somehow she gets Zoe to bed on her own. He's so shocked that he offers her a job on the spot.

Riley needs the money, and Oliver needs the time for himself. It’s a match made in Heaven… until feelings get involved.

Failure to Thrive is a standalone full-length romance novel with a nanny, a single father, and a friends-to-lovers trope. Please note this is the special edition of Failure to Thrive complete with bonus scenes and open-door romance.

I have 2 hours of the book left and I am not sure I can bring myself to listen. The story has moved so slowly, hardly anything has happen. The only big scenes we glossed over instead of being made bigger The man is a tool and is willing to sign his daughters custody over to the nanny after a couple of months.

It is just so slow.
