"Turano continues to be one of the funniest voices in the inspirational genre, and her spunky heroines will appeal to readers across the romance spectrum."-- Booklist After growing up as an orphan,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I got this book a few days ago and regretted every time I was forced to put it down. Turano is one of my favorite authors. She does an exceptional job developing relatable and loveable characters. Turano's witty writing never disappoints. This Pride and Prejudice nod had me laughing out loud and enjoying every sweet moment between our two main characters. This is a sweet romance that effortlessly brings up common challenges with faith and family while maintaining a humorous and light outlook. I can't wait to read more from Turano.

Wow. What to say? Jen turano has a wellspring of talent and captivating wit that is hard to convey in a mere review! Reading along, the plot itself in this novel seemed a bit on the lighter side and not a big deal; the book consists mainly of Everetts relationship with his young wards and Millies trials and error through her nannying career, while trying to discover her worth and purpose. Don't get me wrong- this story was in no ways slow paced or lagging. It had me laughing and saying "aw" all the way through. And, in typical Turano fashion, the plot burst into last minute life with a quickly developed and crescending climax, including a completely unexpected plot twist at the very end! A befuddled and geeky heroine, a classy but oblivious hero, a slimy and infuriating villain, along with many hilarious and memorable friends and loveable children along the way. One of the most adorable Darcy/Lizzie duos in modern literature. Highly satisfying. I am beyond stoked for book 3.
