I’ve seen movies and anime/manga with this, but can’t seem to find many books. Preferably a man, or several, with an unusual circumstance. I read one about an assassin that takes in an abused child and that’s the kind of thing I’m looking for. A romance is ok, but no explicit sex. Does this even exist? Even just being pointed in the right direction would be great!

The Watchmaker of Filigree Street and it’s sequel The Lost Future of Pepperharrow have this trope, though it’s not the main focus of the story.
I also remember this trope being a large part of Goodnight Mr Tom
