Almost an Angel

Sometimes love’s right there in front of you.

Bethany Stone is in love with her boss, Joshua Norris, although their relationship is strictly business. But one day he asks for her help—outside the office.

Joshua’s ten-year-old daughter, Angie, is coming to live with him and he has no idea how to raise a precocious little girl. He commands Norris Pharmaceutical with crisp authority, yet domestic life leaves the reserved executive completely out of his depth.

Arriving from New York with boundless chatter, Angie instantly claims Bethany as her favorite ally for burger runs and wardrobe advice.

Bethany gladly helps out, though she quietly worries she is only serving as a convenient weekend babysitter rather than winning his guarded heart. Angie might be Almost an Angel, but she quickly develops a matchmaking plan for her dad—and Bethany!
