The Nanny's Handbook to Magic and Managing Difficult Dukes
Table of Contents
About The Book
Three mischievous children. One grumpy duke. A magical nanny who changes everything.
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 Duke of St Lawrence should be the opportunity of a lifetime.
If only it hadn't begun with a spectacularly misplaced teleportation spell.
Tasked with caring for the duke's three unruly wards, Emmeline soon discovers that keeping the children out of trouble is only half the challenge. Their guardian may be an even bigger problem.
Brilliant, reserved, and devoted to his inventions, Xavier Mason only wants enough peace and quiet to complete a prestigious clock destined for Westminster Palace. Instead, his carefully ordered world is thrown into delightful chaos by a spirited nanny who refuses to do anything by the book.
As Emmeline settles into the household, strange accidents and acts of sabotage begin threatening Xavier's work. Forced to work together to uncover the culprit, the pair find themselves spending far more time in each other's company than either intended.
And the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to ignore the attraction growing between them.
But the nanny's handbook is very clear on one point:
Falling for your employer is strictly forbidden.
Filled with magical mishaps, eccentric inventors, found family, charming chaos, and a swoon-worthy slow-burn romance, this enchanting cosy fantasy is perfect for readers who love humour, heart, and happily-ever-afters.

Raves and Reviews
‘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!’
