Idle Hands

SJ Sylvis

A Single Dad/Nanny, Age-Gap Formula One romance from Amazon Top 50 and USA Today bestselling author SJ Sylvis.

I’ve always been the kind of person who finds the silver lining in a bad situation. To a fault, some would say.

But after everything fell apart at once, even I hit my breaking point.

Then Van Halston walked into my life.

Formula One’s hottest race engineer.
Single Dad.
A man built on control and careful distance.

When he presses his business card into my palm and asks me to travel the world with him and his six-year-old daughter, I think it’s a joke.
It’s not.

There are rules, of course. I’m there to be a nanny. A teacher. A steady presence in his daughter’s whirlwind life on the racing circuit.

And with nothing holding me back, I say yes–desperate for an escape.

I just didn’t expect it to be him.

The quiet moments.
The lingering tension.
The way he looks at me like he’s fighting something he doesn’t want to feel.

The more I fall, the more I realize something terrifying:
Van Halston doesn’t trust easily, and the second he believes I’ve crossed him…I’m no longer the woman he wants.
I’m the enemy.
