One last chance
Unemployed and with no place to live, Stephanie Cartwright answers an online classified ad. The nanny job in small-town Serendipity, Texas, will give her a chance to start over. And she’ll be helping out teacher Drew Spencer, who desperately needs someone to watch his three-year-old twin boys. He knows better than anyone that his boys can be a handful—so he makes the offer on a short-term basis. Soon this big-city girl is charming both troublesome twins—and their handsome country dad. But can this temporary bond turn into a permanent promise?
“Nice to have a woman in the house,” Drew’s father commented, loud enough for the neighbors in the next county to hear.
Drew cringed. Did the old man even think about how Stephanie might feel when he put her on the spot that way?
She didn’t seem to have a problem with it. She chuckled and flipped the last pancake onto a plate. “I’m certainly outnumbered here, girls to boys,” she said, setting the platter of pancakes in the middle of the circular oak table and tickling Matty on the ear.
The boy squealed and wiggled.
“Me, too,” Jamey insisted.
Stephanie moved around the table and leaned around Drew so she could tickle both boys at once. “It’s a good thing I have two hands.”
Drew closed his eyes, trying not to breathe, because if he did, the oriental scent of her perfume was going to get to him. He was sure of it. He’d always been a sucker for orchids and jasmine…and now, beautiful Stephanie, whom his boys liked as much as he did.

Stephanie Cartwright would have described the Texas prairie in early spring in two words: dry and barren. Endless miles of dirt, rolling hills of dry grass and dark, skeletal weeds, stretching out as far as СКАЧАТЬ
