About this item

Things couldn’t get worse for Harper Presley. Her music career is nonexistent, she’s got pennies in the bank, and her grandmother is on the cusp of losing her house.

What’s a gal to do? Go to Vegas and seek a last chance opportunity.

What she didn’t expect was to wake up in her birthday suit next to pop star Landon Paige with a massive diamond on her ring finger.

It was supposed to be one night of wild recklessness.

But what happened in Vegas didn’t stay there. Now they have to fake it until they bake it.

That’s right, bake it.

They’ve been roped into competing in a reality baking contest for couples at the exact moment Landon takes custody of his spitfire of a niece.

The man requires a real nanny and a fake wife, and she needs the contest’s prize money to keep her grandmother’s house from getting repossessed.

It’s a business arrangement. She can’t give in to a smooth-voiced crooner strumming a guitar.

She’s not about to let another musician break her heart.

Still, when the spotlight fades and Landon drinks her in with his soulful brown eyes, she gets a glimpse of the man who might be more than a self-centered celebrity.

He might just be the heartthrob to make her heart sing again.

Harper and Landon - the last of the Nanny Malone couples

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2023

This is one of the most entertaining series I have read in a really long time. Each character is dynamic. Each couple is paired perfectly, after trial and tribulations and children who sometimes are running the show. I have laughed and cried and been right there when each couple found their perfect match and the child they are responsible for is in a happy home. The situations are over the top funny and heartwarming at the same time.

I have to say I didn't know how Landon and Harper were going to get together and was thrilled with their very unorthodox wedding. They had a lot of things going on and issues to deal with that hadn't hadn't been revealed before. I highly recommend this author and in particular this series.

Our nanny matchmaker extraordinaire is back, and this time the feisty, sassy Harper Presley and pop-rock sensation Landon Paige are in the crosshairs. Landon will soon be taking custody of his young spitfire of a niece, Aria. Except, before a nanny arrangement can even be worked out between Harper and Landon, Harper finds herself with an authentic, 100% legal Las Vegas marriage certificate, a rock on her hand and a rock star for a husband.

My smile muscles hurt, my sides ache, I can’t catch my breath, and a ridiculous grin is permanently stuck on my face. I don’t remember the last time I laughed this much in a romance read. It was probably the previous Nanny book (Beefcake), and I thought that one was hilarious. Somehow Sandor managed to turn hilarious in its head and super-size it with this one!

if what happened in Vegas following her back to Denver isn’t bad enough, that isn’t even the worst of Harper’s problems. The grandmother who raised Harper is about to lose the only home Harper has ever known, and Harper is determined to fix things. Enter, the Celebrity Charity Bake or Bust reality TV contest, which offers the cash prize Harper needs but pits her and Landon against their arch nemesis.

And in the midst of all that, we have Aria, a broken-hearted, scrappy, seven-year-old musical prodigy who has to leave her home, make new friends and start a new school, when learning and Aria have never been any kind of friends at all. Not to worry. Phoebe, Oscar and Sebastian, our kiddos from the previous three books, are on the case. And in the way of children, they find their common ground and become thick as thieves, making me think they may have a thing or two to teach the adults. These kids! Oh, my heart, they're the most amazing fictional kid quad that ever second graded!

If you’re wondering if this one is all com with little rom, not to worry. There's plenty of hot and smexy with all the feels a gal could hope for, all guaranteed to make your romantic heart euphorically happy. I would be remiss not to mention the learning challenges Sandor highlights, but at the risk of a spoiler, let’s just say she shines a brilliant, beautiful light, while giving us new appreciation of the hidden wonders of the human brain, and the special uniqueness we each possess that should always be celebrated.

From second graders to senior citizens, this one has a little of everything, plus the kitchen sink (cue steamy scene! ????). You'll get the craziest Vegas wedding party you'll ever meet, inadvertent incognito psychedelics, a bubble head with substance, and poser you'll be dying to see get his comeuppance.

We then get surprising gems and serendipitous phenomena sprinkled throughout that make this story utterly charming and enchantingly unique while wrapping it up in a stunning bow. Witty, sassy, and outrageously funny but full of electric heat and poignant heart, prepare to have your heartstrings masterfully manipulated by this wordsmith virtuoso. I guarantee, you'll love every minute of it!

I loved Landon and Harper

Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2022

Be ready for all the feels when you open this book. This is the final book in the Nanny Match Series, and I think it might be the best out of the four. It is a big book, with lots of pages, but it is one of those books that every word on every page has meaning and purpose. Harper and Landon are two people who truly get each other. She smooths his roughness, and he calms her in a way that she didn’t realize she needed.

There is so much in this book that I love. The focus on the neurodivergent topic and the emphasis on how it isn’t a disability but rather a difference. The way in which Sandor treats this is front and center, and she creates such a spotlight on the topic but in the best way possible.

Harper is a woman who wants to be able to do everything on her own. She has a lot of hurts from her past. Landon has a lot of hang-ups because of his past and what he thinks his future should look like and an also an expectation how he thinks people should see him.

Aria, Landon’s niece that he has taken over custody for, is a snarky little spitfire and I love her character arc. The kids are amazing additions to this series, but they are use in a way that they don’t take over the story. The ending to this series works out in such a way I didn’t expect, but yet loved at the same time. You do not want to miss this series.

End of A Touching but Fun Series

Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2023

I wasn’t sure I’d read this book as Harper wasn’t a very likable character in the other stories, but here we finally learn about her background. She had a difficult start in life and never felt she was wanted or loved except by her grandparents and friends. Landon, the mysterious celebrity, had an unexpected background, too, and when he becomes his niece’s legal guardian he knows his life will change. Surprisingly, he didn’t need a nanny match, as an unexpected event in Vegas kicks things off, and the story races on. Madalyn continues to make appearances and work her magic, and we finally learn more about her, too. A nice wrap up to the series.

I ❤ Harper, Landon, and Aria ????????????

An amazing read and final book in the Nanny Love Match series. I love all the characters so much. Harper is tough, she takes care of her friends and family without hesitation. She is loyal and so caring. Landon is also loyal, and determined. The two are the perfect match. The kids are hilarious, as usual. The story will have your snickering and swooning from one sentence to the next. This book also introduced me to bon bons and they are my new favorite food! I love this series and am sad to say goodbye, but I look forward to what Krista has planned for us next. Great writing, awesome story! Top summer read!

These kids are what fills the pages with depth and laughter. I would love to have them in my neighborhood to see what chaos they bring.
