The Christmas Nanny

Book four in the A Harbor Falls Romance series a well written story that held my interest until the end. I enjoyed reading Wynter Holly and Rob Black's story and his niece and nephews and all their ups and downs. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Rob Black is watching his sister-in-law and brother’s kids while they have a second honeymoon. But the timing isn’t great and his partner told him to hire a nanny. A Jerry Crews movie was coming up in L.A. and Jerry specifically asked for Rob to produce it. So while in the middle of getting the cast for the Harbor Falls Actor’s Playhouse production, he had to hire a nanny, and had to fly to L.A. in two days. No wonder he had a headache! Wyn Hall was next. She barely read 10 words and was dismissed. So she spent the next 3 nights at the bar drinking and wallowing in her misery. Her friends finally decided enough was enough and took her home in a cab as she slid off the barstool. Her friends Lisa, Charla, and Zach sat with her the next day and had a long talk. They were best friends because their creative sides drew them together: Charla’s writing, Lisa’s painting, Zach’s graphic design, and Wyn’s acting. So despite her claiming she was quitting acting, they wouldn’t allow it. It was who she was. Waiting tables could not be her lifetime profession. She did have a pre-school teaching certificate, but that was not an appealing job choice. But her friends had a plan for her. They three of them showed Wyn an ad in the paper for a full-time nanny. She argued that she didn’t like children and had no experience, which is where the challenge comes in. They want her to convince the people who put the ad in the paper that she is an experienced, full-time nanny with all the qualifications that come with it. This will be the “ultimate acting experience, real life drama, like a reality show”, they tell her. None of them know who the job is actually for, and she just found out she lost her waitress job for not showing up the night before when she neglected to check the schedule change… is Fate working in her life? Will Wynter Holly be able to convince Rob that she has the experience to handle this job? Will she successfully master her new role? Or will she fail and make the worst possible impression on the man who could kick-start her career into the stratosphere? This is a really cute story. What I loved most was watching her friends come to her rescue before she drowned herself in booze. They truly cared and the reader could see true friendship in action. They believed in her, and gave her the courage to challenge herself. This was a very empowering story, even beyond the love interest. Grab your copy and enjoy!

The Christmas Nanny by Maddie James is an amazing story to read. This is book number four in this amazing series written by a brand new author for me to read and I can not wait to read the rest. I highly recommend this story to everyone who loves reading about holiday and contemporary romance. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
