This book was hard to put down. Tia has a way of pulling you into her world. Remi and Ruby were perfect, the push and pull between them was great. I loved how Ruby would interact with Lilly and “the mean moms”. It was just a great read.

I was hooked from the moment I started reading the book. once I started I couldn't put it down. I loved every minute of it!

It was like reading a fairy tale. Remi and Ruby's chemistry was oozing through the pages!
It was a pleasure watching them fall for each other. What I loved the most about this book was that the story felt like it could be real.
Lillie was so adorable, she melted my heart, and never failed to make me smile. I loved her aura, the pigtails, the Disney songs and her giggles! Such a lil sunshine!

I definitely recommend this book

Give me a single dad book any day, and I am happy, but this Make Me Yours by Tia Louise had me entranced all day! Remington is a single dad of a spunky, boisterous 4 year old girl. Helped by his overbearing mother-in-law, and a little intoxicated, he hires Ruby to be his new nanny. Ruby is looking to make some money as her job as a therapist is slower to grow than anticipated. With no experience with children, she takes to Lillie and the two are thick as thieves. But with a new nanny comes change and attraction. Will these two find their way? It's such a wonderful story with your heart just growing every minute. The interaction of Lillie with every character is so endearing, a child you can't help but love. Ruby and Remy's chemistry is off the charts and oh, it's so easy to be frustrated with the mother-in-law. If you are looking for a listen that is heartwarming, romantic and low angst, grab this one, you will love it!

Narration is by Teddy Hamilton and Lucy Rivers, two of my favorites! Hamilton nails Remington, every heated moment, every frustration, he makes us feel his emotions and keeps our hearts invested. Rivers is amazing, from the perfect Ruby, hesitant and loving to Lillie with the 4 year old voice, I could picture it all. This is an incredible team and they made it an incredible listen.

Make Me Yours is a standalone story from Tia Louise, however if you have read her book Make You Mine, you will recognize Ruby. She is Drew’s best friend, and Drew and Gray make a few appearances in this book. For fans of that book, you will enjoy Ruby’s story but new readers won’t feel as though they have missed anything. I highly recommend reading both books though, as I enjoyed both of them a lot!

Remington Key needs help raising his young daughter while trying to launch his business after the loss of his wife. So when he meets Ruby in a bar while both of them are slightly drunk, offering her a full time live-in nanny position seems like a good idea to both of them. They can overlook the intense attraction between them to make the situation work. But the more time they spend together and the closer Ruby gets to his daughter Lillie, the more they each begin to realize that what is between them is more than they can fight.

I loved Remi, Ruby and Lillie. Remi and Ruby had great chemistry and a strong connection. It was there right from the start and just continued to strengthen as she became such a big part of Remi and Lillie’s lives. I couldn’t get enough of her with Lillie. They were so cute together and had a great connection like she had with Remi. It was easy to see how he fell for Ruby when she was around his daughter and made Lillie the center of her world. I loved the heat and attraction between Remi and Ruby, but I just loved the family that they were building. It just felt so real and genuine, and like Ruby was always meant to be with them.

Overall, this was a great story. I loved the characters and getting to see some familiar faces. I can’t wait for Stay, a standalone story coming soon from Tia about a character we meet in this book! Tia Louise is a great author and never disappoints. This is a great book that I know romance readers, especially contemporary fans will enjoy!

Remi and Ruby's story is sweet and heartfelt, and it leaves you believing in true love. Remi hires Ruby to be his live-in nanny to his sweet, spunky 4-year-old daughter. The story just unfolds from there. Hot, single dad and the nanny need I say more. Remi was such a sweetheart and had feelings for Ruby from the start. I loved that this story flowed so nicely, and the conflict between these two characters was bare minimum. The steam these two bring in the bedroom, is also chefs kiss. Highly recommend this great read. Enjoy!

I haven’t found a book by this author that I haven’t loved!!! Each one becomes my new favorite.

Remi & Ruby are a real life Cinderella story that you won’t be able to put down. You’ve got an evil mother-in-law instead of a step-mother who is really just insecure about losing the only family she has left. Then there are the evil preschool moms instead of step-sisters who are really just jealous but lash out at Ruby to make themselves feel better.

The best part of the story is the mini-princess who wins everyone over and brings them all together to be the perfect family, complete with a puppy!!!
