He hired her for the dog. Falling for her was not part of the plan.

There are books that arrive in your brain fully formed, and then there are books that begin with a feeling…

Too Fast to Fall started with this feeling:
a man who is exhausted, guarded, and barely holding himself together…
and a woman who walks into his life like warmth, steadiness, and hope.

He doesn’t want help. He definitely doesn’t want emotional complications. He just needs someone to care for his dog while his life is spinning wildly out of control.

Enter the dog nanny.

She’s sweet, patient, and sunshine in human form—but she’s also strong, observant, and far less easy to dismiss than he expects. What begins as a job becomes a daily closeness neither of them can avoid, especially when one very lovable dog seems determined to accelerate things.

The vibes of this book:

• broody hero energy
• emotional slow-burn tension
• soft, funny dog moments
• opposites attract sparks
• tenderness hiding underneath all that grumpiness
• a love story about letting someone in when you least want to need them

This is a romance about pressure, vulnerability, and finding connection in the middle of a messy life. It’s sexy, heartfelt, and full of the kind of emotional push-pull I adore.

And yes, the dog is very important.
