Title: The Daddy Coach
Author: Karen Muir
Genre: Contemporary, Romance
Release Date: September 9, 2019

Hoping to vindicate her brother, botanist Gina Dunn poses as a nanny to the man she believes framed him. Even though she grew up in a dysfunctional home, how hard can it be looking after twin four-year-old boys? If she can nurture rare orchids, surely she can handle this.

Instant fatherhood hits contractor Will Sinclair hard when his twin sons he didn't know existed come to live with him. The rebellious boys reject Will as their real dad, forcing him to turn to Gina, his new nanny, for her "expert" help.

Interacting with Will and his boys as a “daddy” coach, Gina starts to crave the family she's always longed to have. But Will's reaction when he learns of her deception isn’t her biggest fear––one of two men she loves is lying…

Disclaimer: I received an Advance Reader Copy at no cost from the publisher/author. All opinions in my review are my own. 

This is an adorable story that really had me hanging on to every word. An entertaining slow-burn romance with a bit of a mystery thrown in. 

I have some minor mixed feeling with regard to the plot of the story. On one hand, I loved the story and I loved reading it. On the other hand, my meticulous mind can't get over how unrealistic the events in the book are. At least, the combination of events contained in the book are unrealistic to me. Posing as a nanny when you are, in fact, a botanist, just to prove that your brother didn't commit a crime is pretty unrealistic in my book. Definitely not the norm. And not knowing that you have twin sons? I don't figure that happens very often. Apart from the unrealistic premise, I really have no other complaints. I still enjoyed the story even with the unrealistic nature of the plot. 

Gina and Will were both likable characters. I wouldn't say that I immediately connected with them though. I liked Gina's character growth. From pretending to be a nanny to the moment she realizes that Will could not have possibly perpetrated the crime that her brother is imprisoned for. All the while she is falling in love with these two little boys and Will. 

I liked how Gina and Will's relationship grew out of their time spent around the boys. Gina is trying to help Will warm up to them and the journey brings them closer together. It was a slow-burn romance for sure. There are some hiccups spread into the mix. Gina's intentions and then when Will dates Bree. In the end, both Gina and Will will have to take risks to secure their happily ever afters. 

Overall, this is a fun and interesting story that will keep your interest. The plot is a little out there on the believability scale, but the story unfolds nicely otherwise. If you love single dad stories then this one is for you. This is a sweet romance that you will read in a single sitting. 



A sense of humor was a must when Karen taught elementary grades and Head Start, and she's always loved books and movies that make her laugh. Karen's Fish Out of Water series from Entangled Publishing deals with heroines thrust outside their comfort zones. Their first meetings with their heroes tend to be quirky. An English Lit major at the University of Washington, Karen now reads mostly genre novels. Contemporary and historical romances and mysteries are my favorites. She loves camping--out in the wilds and close to nature--with all the comforts of our motor home. Sitting by a clear mountain stream with a good book to read is her idea of heaven.

  1. It sounds like a good book although I agree that it sounds unrealistic.
