I Wish You Were Mine by Jessica Peterson ~ New Release & Review



I Wish You Were Mine by Jessica Peterson is now live! 


A smoking hot standalone romance in the small-town Harbour Village series, featuring a single dad, a nanny, and an accidental pregnancy!


I know Tuck Monroe is trouble the second I walk in to interview for the nanny position. Six-four and covered in tattoos, he’s distractingly hot. He’s also grumpy as hell. But I need to pay for school, so I take a job as his daughter’s live-in caretaker and move into the apartment above his garage.


I fall hard for Katie, his adorable four-year-old. But I never expected to fall for my new boss, who’s a decade older than I am. Turns out there’s a heart of gold beneath Tuck’s broody exterior, one I work to reveal bit by bit. Casual small talk leads to late-night conversations I can’t get enough of.


No surprise our simmering sexual tension explodes with one deep, toe-curling kiss.


He tells me I’m his good girl; I tell him I love the praise. We give ourselves one night, and one night only, to explore the fiery attraction between us.


It’s the best sex of my life. But when I wake up, Tuck is gone, and life goes back to normal. Or at least I think it does, until I start to feel nauseous. Turns out I was right: my boss is trouble. The kind that comes with one night I can’t forget and two pink lines that will change our lives forever.

Review Copy Provided by Author


We met Tuck and Maren in the first book of the Harbor Village series and new sparks were gonna fly between them, but I never expected the ride that I Wish You Were Mine was going to take us on!

Tuck is an early 30's single dad with baggage. Maren is an early 20s graduate student at a crossroads when she comes to work for Tuck as his nanny. These two are likable characters on their own, especially once you get past Tuck's gruffness, but together they set the e-reader on fire! Ms Peterson does an excellent job creating a friendship and building tension until it boils over. The emotions that ebbed and flowed through this story felt real, both the good and the gut punches, and made these people feel authentic.

One of the things I appreciated most about I Wish You Were Mine was that Ms. Peterson avoided some of the obvious sources of conflict in the story. The path the story took was slightly unexpected, but it revealed a side of Tuck that we hadn't seen before. This revealed cracks in the foundation and provided an opportunity for growth.

While this is the second book in the Harbour Village series, it is a stand-alone read. Parts of the timeline overlap with the first book in the series reading in order to adds to the depth of the experience, but is not necessary.
