Book Synopsis

The Savannah widower infuriates Harper...but his little girl wins the nanny's heart. An endearing story that delivers laughter and tears!

Harper Kirkpatrick is not what Cameron Bennett expects for the bachelor party in his Savannah mansion. She's desperate when he sends her home in her cat costume. Jobs are scarce and eviction looms. Former boyfriend Billy took off for California and she's too proud to head home to Chicago.

Although Cameron may not go for her cheerleader kicks, he does admire Harper's spunk. When she answers his ad for a nanny, she's horrified to find herself back at his mansion. But she can't turn down the generous salary or Bella, the toddler with troubled eyes and an eating problem. Youngest in the Kirkpatrick clan, Harper's not an expert on kids. Neither is the young widower.

Her head-strong personality soon puts her at odds with Cameron and his TV personality girlfriend, Kimmy Carrington. When she stands in for Kimmy at a Savannah gala, Harper and Cameron spark a fire that nearly burns down the dance floor. Never has the wrong man felt so right. Never has a boy from the south worked so hard to rev up the charm. A trip home for his father's funeral reveals a whole different side of the successful renovation expert. Will the Chicago girl be able to put the heart back in his home?

    When Harper Kirkpatrick arrives for a party at the home of Cameron Bennett she knows she's in the wrong place at the wrong time but one disastrous night doesn't stop her from returning the next day to interview for a job she desperately needs to pay her bills. Cameron is a wealthy and successful man who would gladly give all of his wealth away if he could help his daughter. Because Harper comes from a very large family she's convinced she can be Bella's nanny because she's not intimidated by Bella, or her eating condition. This is a really sweet romance between a sexy southern gentleman, a sassy northern beauty and an adorable young child that's guaranteed to melt your heart.

    Nice love story with just as nice character development; however, ending was too abrupt.

    The story was slow to get moving which may be more of the Southern lifestyle of which I am unfamiliar. The storyline involved family stresses and hurts along with a maturing love which was lovely.
  • Sweet and enjoyable novel...

    Barbara Lohr's first novel in the Windy City Chronicles is wonderful and heartwarming. Harper is a great character. So fun loving and easy going she is just trying to pay her rent and eventually move toward finding a job in her field of study as a fashion and interior designer. After several terrible jobs that get her nowhere she lands a job as a nanny to a four year old girl with many issues and a relatively non-existent father. The story of Harper, Bella and Cameron is extremely enjoyable, often funny, serious, and full of spunk and spark. A definite must read. I was given a copy of this novel for an honest review.
  • An 'OK' Read

    First I must say that I loved the idea for this book and thought it had potential, but it fell a bit flat. I was cheering for this couple at first, but my excitement was lost in the execution of the details. I felt as if I was being 'told' the story rather than 'shown'. I had to re-read sections to understand what happened and some parts were emphasizes as a huge plot point only to be skipped over in resolution leaving me feeling less than satisfied. The timelines were scattered creating plot holes and causing a lot of confusion. The sexual tension played on way too long, coming to climax only 25 pages from the end of the book. That left 24 pages of resolution to close out the story line and it was more than abrupt as more issues arose before the final 'The End'. With a bit more character/story development and editing, this would be a satisfying beach read.

    I thought the story line was good, but didn't appreciate the graphic content. I would rather be led to the idea and not given every little detail. The story could have been so much better with less graphic description. I will not read any more of her books nor recommend them.
