4 Star
New York Nights, is the second book in the Heart of the City series, but can easily be read as a standalone.
Sarah Williams is hired as Ben Worthington's Aupair. This is a sweet romance with a plethora of secrets, betrayal, and mystery that surround the Worthington family. Ben is a rich, sexy, brooding, moody, closed off, impersonal and controlled individual, although a very confident businessman. When he finally opens up he's quite an endearing character. Ben is the father of the gorgeous infant Grace, who steals the show, and your heart.
Sarah is a hard working, caring and like-able individual. A young Australian women, she comes from a working class family, and comes from a completely different social class to the Worthington family. She has to jump through quite a few hoops, in order to gain a job.
The sexual chemistry sparks off this pair right from the very beginning, but it is a slow burn romance. Their banter has humor and sarcasm and warmth.
Overall an entertaining and engaging read and I look forward to the final title in this series.
