Ruby Campbell isn't daunted at the prospect of working as a nanny for the notorious Barclay Rothchester. She’s warned he’s a strict control freak, but she’s sure she can soften him up.

Barclay Rothchester lost his wife three years ago. Of course he’s never going to find someone to replace her role, the one she did so perfectly. He’s sure its not going to be hippy-dippy Ruby with her sass and rebellious ways.

Ruby is determined to give his daughters the Christmas they deserve. Now if only she can tolerate their father long enough to make that happen.

Are they both willing to put their stubborn pride aside, or will they risk losing the one gift that can't be wrapped: each other?

Adorable, funny and festive! I was drawn into this book right away! The characters are amazing! The main character is a hoot! I absolutely love how strong willed she is! Nothing better than a strong female lead! The story line was fantastic, I couldn’t stop listening! The narrator was so great at everyone’s voices, I was never confused on who was talking. One of the best audibles I’ve come across!! This book has me ready to put up my Christmas tree, hang our stockings up on the mantle and write Santa a letter! If you love humor and festivities THIS is the book for you!!

Get your stockings ready to hang!

Enjoyable, warm, engaging and charming narration with a twist of sass. The children's voices were beautifully done. A lovely listen in a chaotic time. Highly recommended.

This is a Mary Poppins tale all grown up. Ruby takes a job as a nanny for widowed businessman with two adorable daughters. Barclay is a no nonsense man. He has no time for anything foolish. He is too busy throwing himself into his work and ignoring his emotions. Well Ruby changes all that. This was a hilarious book. Ruby was just what Barclay didn't want. She is stubborn and independent and she doesn't take orders she doesn't agree with easily. As the story goes on and she fights for the girl's happiness she starts to thaw his ice cold heart, even if he won't show it. But Barclay is stubborn and once he realizes his truth it might be too late for himself and the girls who have fallen for Ruby. This was such a fun read/listen. This narrator was the perfect voice for the story. I couldn't get enough of it. Ruby and Barclay cracked me up! And talk about swoon worthy. I dare you not to let this story grab your heart. I loved every second of it and wouldn't mind more! A must read romance for the holiday season.

A brooding widower + a nanny + Christmastime = an amazing holiday listen! I loved every interaction between Ruby & Barclay! They were so full of wonderful tension! I’m so glad I could work and still listen to this audiobook! The narrator did an amazing job bringing Laura’s characters to life!

Absolutely perfect!
