The One I Want by Chelle Sloan
4.0
The One I Want - Rolling Hills Book #1 - Review
Couple: Betsy Sullivan & Wes Taylor
Author: Chelle Sloan
Tropes: single dad, small town, nanny romance, age-gap, sports romance, found family
Review: Get ready to welcome Wes Taylor into your book boyfriend lists! This book is a witty, single parent romance between a retired NFL star and his nanny. It is written in dual POV and full of all the things we love.
Wes Taylor is a newly divorced single dad of three and is caught trying to navigate this new life he has. I admired how Chelle wrote and developed his character in this book since she did not make him bitter. I also really enjoyed his friend group and their humorous outings. His difficulty with accepting his lust for the nanny was also funny to read.
Betsy was a young woman who never quite found her niche in life. I really liked her character since she had wit and humor in spades. I also really enjoyed how she adapted to her role and fit in seamlessly with the kids. I thought the tension between her and Wes was the best, especially when he came to bat for her with her parents.
The book is full of wit, banter and tension and will not disappoint those who live for this type of romance. I enjoyed the slow build tension and explosive spice between these two.
What really makes this book though is the relationship with the three kids Wes has. I enjoyed how each one was unique and funny. Betsy was also not the typical nanny role in tropes like this and I think it was a draw in for the story.
Rating: 4/5, Wes Taylor is goals!
