The Nanny's Handbook to Magic and Managing Difficult Dukes

About The Book

Mary Poppins meets Bridgerton in this enchanting cosy fantasy romance filled with magic, mischief and slow-burn love.

Her new employer comes with three unruly children. And one very inconveniently attractive duke.

Fresh from the Parasol Academy for Exceptional Nannies and Governesses, Emmeline Chase is determined to prove herself. Landing a position in the household of the mysterious Duke of St Lawrence should be the opportunity of a lifetime—even if the job begins with a spectacularly misplaced teleportation spell.

Managing the duke's three mischievous wards is challenge enough. But their guardian may be the bigger problem.

Brilliant, shy and endlessly devoted to his inventions, Xavier Mason needs peace and quiet to complete a prestigious clock destined for Westminster Palace. Instead, his household is in chaos, his plans are being sabotaged, and his new nanny seems determined to turn his orderly world upside down.

As Emmeline and Xavier join forces to uncover who is trying to ruin his work, an undeniable attraction begins to grow between them. But the nanny's handbook is very clear on one point:

Falling for your employer is strictly forbidden.

A delightful blend of cosy fantasy, historical romance, humour and heart, featuring magical nannies, eccentric inventors, found family, charming chaos and a swoon-worthy slow-burn romance.

Perfect for fans of Heather Fawcett, India Holton and Freya Marske.

The Nanny's Handbook to Magic and Managing Difficult Dukes is a whimsical, wonderfully romantic treasure trove of laugh-out-loud delights. Its spirited heroine, Emmeline Chase, proves a worthy successor indeed to Mary Poppins. I had such a fabulous time reading this book and can't wait for the next in the series!’
