About
What’s the worst thing that could happen to a blushing bride?
After Zoe is jilted by her fiancé Jason, she’s unable to face the pitying looks of her friends and family any longer.
Fleeing to America, she is employed as a nanny by the moody, difficult, but devastatingly sexy, single dad Ryan.
She quickly wins over his children, but her boss is more of a challenge. Things aren’t helped, of course, by her inadvertently displaying her knickers to his colleagues or nearly hospitalising him with a toy bow and arrow.
Thank God she’s got her colourful circle of friends to keep her sane: fun-loving Trudie, hippy Amber and chilly, tight-lipped Felicity.
It is only over time that Zoe and Ryan begin to understand each other and their apparently ill-fated relationship takes on a new dimension.
There’s just one problem, as Zoe soon discovers: that the past isn’t always easy to escape, no matter how far away you go.
