Heartbreak, squabbles and laughs aplenty in a warm and funny tale about a small, close-knit group of English nannies working in Boston. Perfect for readers of Marian Keyes, Sophie Kinsella and Cathy Kelly.
When Zoe Moore finds herself jilted at the altar by her fianc?she knows she doesn't deserve this heartache and humiliation. Unable to face the pitying faces of her friends and family, she takes drastic action: she flees to Boston, where she takes up a post as nanny to five-year-old Ruby Miller and her little brother Samuel. Ruby and Samuel have lost their mother in an accident. They may as well have lost their father too, for Ryan Miller is so wrapped-up in his grief that he barely notices his two attention-starved children.
As Zoe sets about injecting some fun back into the children's lives, she finds herself gaining their trust and love. The only thing saving Zoe from despair at Ryan's neglect is the group of British nannies who quickly befriend her. There's boisterous Trudie, man-mad but hiding a painful secret; Sloanie traveller Amber, who sports a Buddhist tattoo that, unbeknownst to her, reads 'Batteries Not Included'. And chilly, tight-lipped Felicity, whose cut-glass voice gives little away. But will these new friends be able to save Zoe, when she discovers that the past isn't all that easy to escape, no matter how far you go?
