Piper is arriving in Rio on her epic twenty-fifth birthday trip planned by one of her best friends. She’s starting a three week much needed vacation! She’s been through the ringer lately as her fiancé broke it off, she’s been paying her bills by working at a day care, while trying to find a job utilizing her business degree, and she’s just plain stressed! Sun and fun is on her agenda!
Only not is all that it seems! When she gets to her destination, its a picturesque home along the water and a rather handsome man, Lucas, greets her. She’s very confused. Lucas talks of we and us, so Piper assumes she has a rental room in a couples house-like a B and B. But then she notices a small child. Lucas mentions her being the fill in nanny for his daughter, Maddie, and Piper is wondering why her friend would set her up to do this when she needed to get away from her job with kids! Lucas figures out pretty quick his cousin has set them both up. After a call to Alyssa, she explains about the dossier and Piper needing to have an epic vacation. Plus she knew it was time for Lucas to start living again. The death of his wife saddled Lucas with mounds and mounds of guilt, and Maddie hasn’t spoken since that dreadful day. When Lucas tells Piper what Alyssa set up, she decides not to turn her back on them. He’s pretty easy on the eyes after all!
I loved the story and I loved how Piper approached her position to help both of them. Piper and Lucas had an amazing chemistry which just kept heating up until it boiled over! They seemed like a very good fit for each other and just understood one another. I was miffed that Alyssa would send her best friend on a nanny job for a vacation, but it ended up being so much more. Not only was Piper helping them, they were helping Piper too. Everybody had a bit of baggage to sort through! It definitely was an original, intriguing, and inventive story!
All of the books in the Dossier series can be read as standalone books. Brazilian Fantasy is book five. I know once you read any one book in this series, you will be clamoring to read the rest! They are THAT GOOD!! I am a fan of Cathryn because she continues to give us interesting stories along with some pretty great characters! You want to be them, or know them, or go on their adventures with them! She has a knack of drawing you in and you really do not want to stop reading once you start!
This story is smoking HOT! It is the fifth book in the Dossier series written by Cathryn Fox.
Piper is spending three weeks in Rio De Janeiro for her twenty-fifth birthday courtesy of her friend Alyssa, but when she gets there she is surprised that it involves a young single father who needs a nanny for his daughter. This isn’t what she signed up for!
Lucas needs a nanny for his daughter and believes that is what he is getting when his cousin Alyssa says that she has the perfect person for the job, but Piper doesn’t seem to know anything about it and his attraction to her is combustible.
I was given an ARC from the author/publisher. All conclusions are mine and mine alone.
The appeal of the Dossier series is “GIRL POWER”. Amidst the naughty allure is a strong bond of friendship. Through the storm, these women laugh, cry and encourage other. Even if that means pushing each other to step outside of their comfort zones. Brazilian Fantasy is Piper’s story. For Piper Rio De Janeiro is the beginning of escapade. She finds a couple of surprising developments at the end of her destination. (1.) The greatest temptation is one you never saw coming. (2.) Giving away your heart is the biggest risk of them all. Cathryn Fox doesn’t hold back with Piper and Lucas. Her aim is tried and true.
