Your name is [name_u]Marti[/name_u] [name_f]Aurora[/name_f]. You are 21 year old third-year college student attending the University of [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u] and are in need of a summer job. You complain about this to one of your professors [name_f]Olevia[/name_f] [name_f]Thyme[/name_f], and she tells you their cousin, [name_m]Casimir[/name_m] R. [name_m]Ace[/name_m], is looking for a new nanny. While you do like kids, being someone’s nanny doesn’t sound appealing to you. But student loans need to be paid, so you swallow your pride when your professor puts in a good word for you and you go in for an interview with the man’s secretary.
Two weeks after the first interview, you are called back in for follow-up questions. You passed the first part, now comes the real test: how you interact with the boss’s children.
He has three year old twins named; [name_m]Albert[/name_m] [name_m]George[/name_m] and [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f].
To your surprise and delight, the children are sweet and well-behaved. They take an instant liking to you and you like them, too. According to the secretary, the boss is pleased and you’re scheduled to start as soon as school lets out as the family’s new live-in nanny.
What does the boss’s house look like? Huge, English Victorian styled, with six bedrooms, a play room, two reception rooms, spacious kitchen-diner, large family garden with veggie patch and outbuilding, three bathrooms.
The family lives in [name_m]Tucson[/name_m], an hour’s drive away from the town where you school is located. The first day you start you meet your boss, [name_m]Casimir[/name_m], an attractive, well-dressed businessman in his late thirties. He’s nice to you and pays you well, as well as gives you all the necessities to look after the children during the day. But you’re simply the nanny. [name_m]Cas[/name_m] works normal business hours and is always home before his kids go to bed. You like him–a lot.
While your boss takes the kids out for a day to give you some time off, you use the opportunity to interrogate the housekeeper, [name_f]Judith[/name_f]. You’ve never seen Mrs. [name_m]Ace[/name_m] and you’re wondering where she is. The housekeeper tells you that the misses left the boss for a former business partner two years ago. She signed over all her parental rights to her ex-husband and no one has heard from her since. The housekeeper also mentions that before the divorce, the boss was so caught up in his family’s business firm he hardly paid attention to the kids. But since their mother left, he feels awful, as he feels it’s his fault, and indulges the children with whatever they want.
For the rest of the summer, you go on day trips with the kids and, more often than not, their dad tags along. But as the new school term approaches, you talk to your boss regarding your work schedule. You want to continue to be the children’s nanny, but you’re worried it could interfere with your schooling. He understands and you two come to an agreement: you’ll be a back-up for the new nanny, who was the runner-up after you, in case she gets fired or is on vacation.
Two months into your final year of college, you get a surprising phone call from [name_m]Casimir[/name_m]. He asks if you’re doing anything [name_m]Saturday[/name_m] night. You say no, you have the night off from your new job, a waitress at a local coffee shop. He wants to know if you would like to go out to dinner with him. You’re caught off guard, no clue to how to respond to something as ironically cliché as dating the nanny. He admits he’s been thinking a lot about you lately and apologizes if he’s bothered you. You reassure him it’s OK and say yes to dinner.
You date [name_m]Casimir[/name_m] R. [name_m]Ace[/name_m] for four years…
After you graduate from college, you move in with [name_m]Cas[/name_m] and his kids, but as his new girlfriend, not the nanny. The children love you and you love them, as well as their father. He lets you have your own career as a journalist and doesn’t expect you to come work for him at his family’s firm or be a trophy wife, which makes you love him more. On a special holiday, he asks you to marry him, and a year later the two of you have a large, glamorous vacation wedding.
It is held on the Fourth of [name_f]July[/name_f] (my birthday!!!) in Athens, Greece.

You and [name_m]Cas[/name_m] stay another week for a small honeymoon when the guests leave for home and the children stay with your in-laws at their house in [name_m]Houston[/name_m]. Three months after you come home, you find out you’re pregnant. Of course, you and [name_m]Cas[/name_m] weren’t planning on having kids so early, but why would you wait any longer?
You welcome a gorgeous son named: [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_u]Hudson[/name_u]
2 years pass after your baby is born. Your oldest step-child [name_m]Alby[/name_m] comes home from school very, very upset. He swears they saw their mother watching them as they were leaving school. Sure enough, an hour later, your husband’s ex-wife, [name_f]Gemma[/name_f], is at the front door. She is eight and a half-months pregnant. She says that her latest husband left her after she found out she was pregnant. She doesn’t want the baby, but feels that it should be with its half-siblings. You can tell this woman is trouble and leaving a child with her would be a bad idea. [name_m]Cas[/name_m] agrees and you adopt the baby after they are born. The mother disappears, but 5 months later, your husband receives word that the woman accidentally overdosed and died. Then, 3 weeks later, you find out you’re pregnant.
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] gave birth to a son named: [name_m]Jeremy[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m]
While you deliver THREE babies! A boy and two girls named: [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] [name_m]Archer[/name_m] & [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] & [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Lila[/name_f]
4 years later, an event stirs up your family. What happens?
You discover you have a teenage half-sister who is in need of guardianship. You take her in.
Your half-sister, [name_f]Ashlyn[/name_f] [name_f]Destini[/name_f], is wild and rebellious, but you expect that since she’s grown up in foster care for most of her life. Your mom is mad at you for taking in your father’s illegitimate child, but you know you did the right thing. Once your sister realizes she’s not going anywhere, she settles down and her behaviour changes. Then, she finds out she’s pregnant–and she doesn’t know who the father is. You and your husband don’t know what to think, but you support her decision to keep her baby and promise to do whatever you can to help her. The day after your sister finds out she’s pregnant, you find out you’re pregnant!
After the multiples you’re relieved to deliver a single girl named: [name_f]Briony[/name_f] [name_u]Scout[/name_u]
While [name_u]Ash[/name_u] also gives birth to a daughter named: [name_u]Addison[/name_u] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f]
