She’s there to watch over his children, but he’ll have to watch out for his heart.
Emelia Robbins works as an admin at the Alien Nanny Agency. She never goes on assignments, but when a desperate client puts out a last-minute plea for help, her boss decides to send her out in the field. It’s a one-year nanny contract, and if she fulfills it, she’ll earn a bonus big enough to make her dreams come true. But when she meets the out-of-control kids, she isn’t sure she’ll last a week. And her intimidating new boss might not let her make it through a single night. Mr. Drayven may be a well-respected architect, but his deep voice makes her tremble and his big body leaves her weak with unrequited lust.
Ra’as Drayven is working on the biggest project of his career. He needs a nanny who won’t head for the hills as soon as she meets his energetic daughter and complicated son. When the Alien Nanny Agency agrees to send help, he expects a matronly drill sergeant from the Outer Rings, not the beautiful young Terran who trips out of a rented gadabout and into his home. The last thing he wants is another pretty face using her employment to try and win his broken heart. Especially when her innocent eyes and dangerous curves might give her the power to do just that.
If you like strong women, hunky aliens, wild adventures, steamy sensual scenes, and happily-ever-afters, then you’ll love the world of Alien Nanny Agency.
Alien Architect Needs a Nanny is book one in the Alien Nanny Agency by Tasha Black.
What pulled me to this story was the blurb, but it didn’t turn out as good as I hoped.
Our hero Ra’as Drayven is a busy architect with little time for his family and the time he does have for them is spent either elsewhere or ignoring them. Ra’as is completely unlikable. He is rude, belittling, and selfish. He was not a good hero.
The kids Mimi and Dyrk are adorable. They stole the show. I felt Emilia’s love towards the kids. Watching them bloom under Emilia’s care was the highlight of this book.
As for the romance we have lust, but I never felt the love. Emilia and Ra’as hardly ever talk to each other and then they are in love. Not buying it.
Alien Architect Needs a Nanny was an enjoyable enough read to pass the time. I didn’t like Ra’as, but the familial feelings between Emilia and the children made the story pleasant.
Rated: 3 Stars

I do not like the covers like these. I think the only reason I gave the Ice Planet Barbarians a try is because of the change in their cover too. But I know I shouldn’t judge by the cover, the stories could be good. Thanks for sharing your review!

I wasn’t a fan of the cover for this story. I like the original covers for Ice Planet Barbarians. The new ones are ok. Thanks Lisa for visiting.
Yeah, I need to see evidence of the romance development, too, especially if one of the characters comes across as unlikable. Glad the nanny and kids’ part was really good.
Thanks for visiting.
Sorry it didn’t have the best romance. But what’s the two covers? The top one kind of creeps my out, but I can’t stop looking. LOL
One is the original cover when it came out. That is when I got the book. The other is the new cover. As you know authors sometimes change covers on books published. I don’t care for either. Thanks for visiting.
