About the author
Kianna Alexander
107 books544 followersI've always loved the written word. For as long as I can remember, I read as much as I could, as often as I could. Cereal boxes, newspapers, product packaging. Ebony, Essence, and Jet Magazine. Billboards. I loved it all. I read the entire Fear Street series, as well as the Sweet Valley Books, from Twins and Friends through Sweet Valley High. Each week I'd bring 15 or 20 books home from the library, and read them all before the due date.
Now, my mother owned a pristine, barely touched collection of Harlequin romance novels, and I was not to touch them under any circumstances. Well, as a teenager, you know what that meant. I read some of them, and got my first introduction to romance.
When I was sixteen, I picked up my stepmother's copy of Night Song, by Beverly Jenkins. The cover showed an obviously historical image of a black couple, against a beautiful backdrop, locked in a passionate embrace. With my love of history, I had to crack this book. What I read inside literally blew my mind. I was exposed to a wonderful, touching love story involving people who looked like me! What a thrill. To this day Night Song remains my favorite book, and I credit it with planting the seed of desire to write romance. I didn't get serious until many years later, but that's where it all began.

Never Let Me Go is the third book in Alexander's Southern Gentlemen series but works well on its own. It's a charming, enjoyable story between two people who are not looking for commitment and an adorable baby who brings them together.
I was pleased with how quickly Maxwell stepped up when his daughter's grandmother fell ill, taking full responsibility of his daughter while his ex-girlfriend was deployed overseas. It was heartwarming to watch them develop a strong bond, much of which was accomplished with Yvonne's guidance and encouragement.
The relationship between Yvonne and Maxwell is a slow burn that begins with friendship and slowly deepens into more. I liked them together. Both are realistically depicted characters, as is their relationship, and the relationships they have with their families. Maxwell's family, in particular, plays heavily into his attitudes regarding love and commitment and the author explores that, giving readers a deeper understanding of his character and how it impacts his romantic relationships.
I also appreciated the way his ex-girlfriend, his daughter's mother, was portrayed and the approach all three adults took in regards to their co-parenting relationship. Alexander works real world issues into Yvonne and Maxwell's relationship and does it in a mature and cooperative manner I enjoyed with a happy ending all around.

Max wants to get the contract for a new performing arts center. The issue with this is, someone he went to college with also wants the same contract.
Yvonne was not the only one blown away when she walks into Max's office for the nanny position. Neither wanted to act on their emotions because he was her employer. She also did not want anything to get in the way of her opening up her own child care center.
It was nice to see the love and dedication Max had for his infant daughter.
This was the first book I have had the pleasure of reading by this author, and I am happy I did. It had me hooked from the beginning. The flow was consistent throughout, and the characters were very engaging.

I loved this book! The characters are warm and believable. I was on the edge of my seat, turning the pages as their love story developed. If you're looking for an escape from all the turmoil in the world right now, this is the book to start reading. Enter this lovely and lush world of a single dad of an adorable baby girl and the smart, strong, lovely woman who falls in love with them both. You will not be disappointed and you'll want to stay with them for longer than the book lasts. Luckily there are more books in the series.

A feel good book that touches your heart from the beginning. A dad whose ex-girlfriend is deployed and he is now thrust into the role of full time daddy of a baby causes a complete upheaval of his life! He is set to go after a large job that could solidify his company’s position, but now he has to somehow make room in his busy schedule for his little girl 24-7!
So, next best thing he hires a nanny. Yvonne who loves children and eventually wants to open up her own child daycare center enters his life. The minute the two meet it is as if a electrical field zapped them because they had an instant attraction, but they tried to ignore it.
This book was a good book to sit and enjoy when you wanted a lighthearted enjoyable read that was about real life choices and characters that could be your own neighbors. It was very down to earth and I felt the issues that came up within the family dynamics are ones that people deal with everyday.
Thank you to the authors and publishers who work diligently for us the readers.

I received an ARC from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
Never Let Me Go was my first book from Kianna Alexander, although I had previously read a novella of hers in an anthology. And while this is the third in a series, it stands alone, while making me curious to pick up the other two.
While the employer/nanny romance has been done in myriad ways before, Alexander injects something fresh into the setup and makes it her own. Max and Yvonne are both compelling characters with strong independent motivations that are at odds with a lasting romance between them, yet it’s obvious they work well together.
I also really appreciated the way Max’s own issues with committing to love over his dreams were interrogated, as I don’t feel like I’ve seen a lot of that, particularly in. terms acknowledging his own fault in the demise of previous relationships and how that mirrors the current one with Yvonne.
This is lighthearted, charming Southern romance, and one I’d recommend to other contemporary romance lovers.

Never Let Me Go is the third book in The Southern Gentlemen series but was fine reading as a stand-alone. It was charming and full of emotions. The characters were perfect for each other and genuine. The book was well written and interesting. Maxwell Devers must take care of Sasha, his seven-month-old daughter immediately when his ex-girlfriend is deployed, and her mother becomes ill. Maxwell’s architect company is working on a big bid for a city project and he needs help caring for Sasha. Yvonne Markham is excited to get her first nanny job with the new agency she started with. This job will allow her to save money for her dream of owning a daycare. Yvonne enjoyed taking care of Sasha who was such a charming baby. Falling for Sasha’s dad was not part of her life plan.

Maxwell and Yvonne just fit together!
Architect Maxwell Devers would do anything for his little girl but when her maternal grandmother had a stroke, he knew he had to step up and take care of her until his former girlfriend returned from her military deployment. Maxwell hired Yvonne Markham to be Sacha’s nanny while he was at work designing a new cultural center for the city of Fayetteville.
Never Let Me Go is the third book in The Southern Gentlemen Series about a group of fraternity brothers. Single father dating the nanny is a familiar start in romance, but Kianna Alexander had made it her own with a couple just seems to fit together even with their love for each other and Sacha.

Never Let Me Go is part of The Southern Gentlemen series, this is book #3. I have not read the previous books in the series. I feel comfortable saying this this can be read as a stand alone.
I found this book to be a beautifully written, totally cute story. I worked in the early childhood development field for 25 years. The authors knowledge of child development definitely shows in her writing. So much I could relate to and much of it made me smile.
Basically, this is a love story about two heartwarming characters, Yvonne and Maxwell. Maxwell is a architect and a single parent. He hires Yvonne to be the nanny to take care of his 7 month old baby. As romance between the two begins, things start to heat up.
Southern charm romance at its best......definitely a book I recommend if you are in the mood for a light hearted story with lots of family drama and family love.

Maxie is up for this HEA in this one. We know him from Books 1 and 2 as big brother and frat brother. We find out he has a daughter and comes to taking care of her full time. This is the nanny/dad troupe but do a little different with the nanny having more of a spine. Yvonne is a strong character who I enjoyed. Max has never had to worry about ours- and we see him grow into his role as father.
This is a slow burn but not. I don't know how to decide how to word it, its slow but its also steamy and really not that slow in their relationship really. There is a lot of details that I didn't need or want and would have like more of the love story but it is real life so...
Overall, 3.5 stars and 4 steam
Thanks to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Yvonne has one goal, to make money fast so she can finally open her dream daycare center. Maxwell is a man used to getting what he wants, but when his infant daughter comes to live with him full-time he has to figure out how he can balance work and fatherhood.
Yvonne is sent from a nanny agency to care for Sasha, Maxwell's daughter. The money is enough that Yvonne won't have to work for anyone else when the gig is over. Sasha becomes more than just a charge and Maxwell makes his way into her heart.
Will Yvonne put her dreams on the back shelf again for a man? Will Maxwell realize the world doesn't revolve around him?
This was a decent romance. There wasn't huge character development on either side. The conflict was minimal and the writing was good. The pacing was off which made the ending drag a little, but all in all it was a fine way to spend an afternoon.

This book could be a Harlequin. There is no language though there are a few mature scenes. Besides that this book is amazing.
It follows Yvonne and Maxwell through their love and life. Yvonne was just Maxwell’s young baby’s nanny. They both are attracted to the other. Then they decide to take it slow.
It’s a cute story in which something is always happening. I would recommend it to fans of Harlequin and Hallmark. It is an intriguing novel. It is a bit long and some scenes can seem unimportant but this is still a great book.

This is book 3 in the Southern Gentlemen series but can be read as a stand alone. This is a story of family based lives and blending of modern circumstances. Maxwell and his girlfriend have a beautiful baby girl but her mother is deployed overseas and is being raised by her maternal grandmother. Max suddenly becomes a full time father when the grandmother has a stroke. He hires Yvonne as his nanny and sparks fly. A nice multi-cultural story that is a wholesome read.

Maxwell is on the runner up for a big project but with Sacha's mother on deployment (ex-girlfriend) and her mama sick he's on daddy duty 24/7 now. Yvonne dreams of opening her own daycare someday and becoming Sacha's nanny is a step further
A slow-burn romance that's well-written and a light-hearted read.

This is a story of Maxwell who engaged Yvonne as a nanny for his months old baby girl while his ex gf was away on a medical mission. From the start, both Max and Yvonne are attracted to each other and neither of them denying it. Their relationship began to develop really well. Yvonne have a dream to open her own child care nursery. She have been saving for the nursery and she is near to saving enough for down payment. But Max have a different idea of his other half. He didn’t realise that his expectation has been cause of all his past relationship until it is too late.
This is heartwarming read for me. As I read on this book, I couldn’t help smiling away.

Alexander’s latest is a heartwarming read that will keep you engaged. The hero and heroine were a little insta-love for my taste, but Alexander’s characters kept me reading.

I’m so sad I didn’t like this book. Normally I am a big fan of the single parent trope and I thought a romance with the nanny would be really interesting. I think I expected drama and a little bit more of a “punch” but that is not what this book is. There is no real drama that effected the relationship which is what I wanted. Sure we find out that Max’s father has a love child but that was honestly so unnecessary to the story. I wanted slow burn, angst, and tension but Von and Max say “I love you” after like a week of dating which was just not what I expected going into this book. Also, the writing style didn’t work for me and I found myself skimming a lot of it. But if you are looking for a sweet fast read I think you would enjoy it. That was just not what I expected so I was disappointed from my own expectations.
