EvelynI’d heard people talking about the smoking hot guy that opened up a tattoo parlor just off the plaza, so even before I met Nick, I knew he was sexy as hell. What I didn’t know about him was that he was also sweet, kind, and funny. Or that he had a daughter I would adore from the second I met her. Or that when I was with them, I would truly know what it felt like to be home. But is there any … But is there any way that Nick could return my feelings? Could this ever really be my new family—my new home?
Nick
Ever since my wife died two years ago, I’d been in a tailspin. It was all I could do to keep going day after day, making a good life for my daughter Olive. The only problem was, I was drifting through life like a zombie—and so was my little girl.
All of that changed when we met Evelyn. It was like she was magic, bringing both of us back to life for the first time in years. Because of her, there was finally a light at the end of a long tunnel. But is what I feel enough to risk the stability I’ve fought so hard for?

Loved Evelyn & Nick. The characters had such great chemistry even if they tried to keep it platonic we all knew where this was heading. He finds love again and she finally find true love. Throw in an adorable lil girl what’s not to love. Also loved seeing characters from other books mentioned. That helped me connect with this set of characters more. Would definitely recommend. 5 star read.
I have loved this entire series and each one has gotten better. Nick is a single dad who is determined to do the best he can to take care of his little girl that struggles with trust issues. Nick hires Evelyn to be Olive’s babysitter and they can’t fight the attraction. Evelyn is a amazing babysitter and a wonderful gift to them both, just what Nick and Olive need to fulfilled their lives.
Nick & Evelyn’s story definitely lives up to the name! They have an adorable meet-cute! 🙂 I loved both characters, and OLIVE! She was so sweet!! My only complaint was that I didn’t feel like we got to SEE a lot of Nick & Evelyn together before they GET TOGETHER. I would have liked to have seen more of their getting to know one another scenes. But, aside from that, I enjoyed the story quite a lot & LOVED how they both interacted w/ Olive. Supporting cast also gets a thumbs up in this one!

Oh my goodness…ALL the feels!! Loved this story and this whole series!!
Nick and Evelyn are a delight. Such a sweet couple.
Nick is a tattoo artist that owns his own shop. He is also still recovering from the death of his wife 2 years prior. His only saving grace is his daughter Olive. His beautiful little girl that is still having problems trusting people and loving them because she is worried they might go away like her mother did.
Evelyn is a sweetheart. One night in a bar to get an aggressive guy away from her she went to Nick as he walked in the door and asked him to play along as her boyfriend to get the guy to leave her alone. They ending up spending the whole night drinking and just enjoying themselves. But the next day when she realizes what she did she wanted to apologize to him for her behavior. Evelyn decides to go to Nick’s shop to apologize. While waiting for Nick to come out of the back room she sees Olive (unaware its Nick’s daughter) sitting on a bench waiting so she decides to go take a seat next to the little girl. Instantly Olive started talking to Evelyn and sharing her book with her. When Nick came out of the back room and seen how open his little girl was being with Evelyn he instantly knew he had to see if she would become Olive’s new sitter.
So, while Evelyn was babysitting Olive on a full-time basis, she also got to spend a lot more time around Nick. Their attraction grew as ever day passed. Nick was finally able to start feeling again.
This was such a fantastic story. Truly loved this story. I wish I could give this review more than 5 stars.
Ahhh! Always a great day when I can one-click a new Melanie Shawn book!!
Everything Melanie Shawn writes is an auto-buy for me. Don’t miss out on this cute and steamy story 🙂
I absolutely loved this book. I was hooked basically from the very beginning. It is a very well written story that gives you all the feels. It was definitely a good wrap up too of the Someday Series.
I did not want to put it down! As always, I definitely was not disappointed in the slightest!
Perfect ending for this series. I really enjoyed this book and loved spending time with Evelyn and Nick and of course Olive and all of our girls we’ve fallen in love with along the way. From their initial meeting to the apology to the adorably cute Olive, everything for these two awesome characters seemed to fall into place. As always, I definitely enjoy a Melanie Shawn book and this was another great story. I especially loved the ending and the moment between Evelyn and Lisa was perfect. My favorite line from this book was, We were that mythical ‘chosen family’ that everyone looks for and only a few people are lucky enough to find. This is definitely a series that will be on my re-read list. Thank you ladies for another awesome Melanie Shawn book!
