About this ebook
One burned-out lawyer applying to work as a nanny. One stressed-out single mom desperate for help. Two kidlets looking for a daddy. Crazy? But they might just make a family.
Molly's eyes took another quick sweep of him. Gorgeous. But she needed a nanny not a stud, and she needed one today. "This isn't a joke? You're serious about this job?"
He nodded.
Molly reviewed her options one last time. Unfortunately, with her job on the line and two small children depending on her, she had just one. This man. This--okay--tall, very attractive, very blond, very tempting man. She had neither the time nor the tolerance for casual or even not-so-casual flings, but she appreciated a gorgeous man when she saw one. She wasn't dead yet. Cooper Meredith was clearly not dead yet, either. More Saturday-night-date material than nanny material, but maybe she could make this work until she got home from New York.
"Well, Mr. Meredith? What's your answer?"
"Ms. Perrell, it's a resounding yes."

Mary lives on a lake in Minneapolis with her husband, two cute kidlets, and a stuffed monkey named Philip.

She writes YA, romantic comedy, and women’s fiction novels. Pride, Prejudice, and Push-Up Bras is the first in her four-book YA series, The Bennet Sisters.

Great story of an adult 'fish out of water' in Cooper and a frazzled and wary mom with over energetic four year old twins. He's toasted as a partner in a law firm, she's desperate to find someone she can trust to be a nanny for her kids. When he answers the ad, she's shocked and skeptical, but desperation in the form of a must take work-related trip to NYC, causes her to hire him. It's an adventure and a learning experience for both of them. Nicely crafted with semi-hot attraction and a lovely ending. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5

Cute first book for this author. Cooper is an overworked lawyer, who just quits his job on an impulse and takes the job he closed his eyes and pointed to in the newspaper - a nanny for 4you twins. Molly is due in NY for a convention the next day and has childcare for her 4yo twins. So when Cooper - a man - shows up, and the kids take to him, she holds her breath and leaves. Of course, he has no idea what he's doing (and the author could have expanded that more), but everything works out in the end, of course.
