“I’m just the governess,” Alex quickly volunteered.
“You are not just the governess,” Chase corrected. “You are not ‘just’ anything.”

I am a sucker for the nanny trope so I adored this book! Alex is such a beautiful, tender hearted heroine — she’s such a good take on the shy “good girl” trope! This book was also just hilarious!!
Alternate title: 101 Ways a Child Can Murder Her Doll
