The Charade Backfires Elaine Craig

Odilia's trust fund is just about depleted by the time she earns her Ph. D. in Child Psychology. When she mentions that she would like to get a job as a nanny, her friends scoff, claiming she couldn't commit to a specific job for any length of time. She decides to prove them wrong, and makes a bet. The day she's hired as a nanny, her life as Ms. Raines, a woman, age 50+begins. Jason Galent, who recently became the guardian of his young niece needs a nanny, like yesterday. Two days of interviews find him tired and dispirited, until Ms. Raines walks in. Suddenly he not only has a nanny, but a mystery woman, as well. The charade has begun. He sets his traps, only to fail, time after time. A hostage situation, a serious hand injury, an unveiling, a wedding, an emergency appendectomy, a busy itinerary, a serious health problem and a surprising discovery. THIS ROMANCE HAS IT ALL.
