   Summary

   Heather Shaffer moves back to Gotham after ten years of being away from home, meeting and forming a fast bond with Selina Kyle. When Heather loses her job, Selina begs her to nanny Duke, Stephanie, and Cassandra, but Bruce has more salacious plans in store. The the more she works for the Waynes, the more ensnared in their lives and lies she becomes.

   For those looking for specific plot/character points:
   --- The "romance" with the Waynes starts in Ch. 14.
   --- The first truly sexually explicit chapter is Ch. 31 and features Bruce.
   --- Joker starts in ch. 50, ends in 66. This part is 90% whump + 10% angst.
   --- Arc 4 starts in 68 and is mostly Jason comfort.
   --- Final arc starts in ch. 100.

   Thanks to PurpleOwlWritings, arcs 4 and 5 actually have a plot.
