The Misplaced Affections of Charlotte Fforbes - The Imperfect Lives series, #3

The Misplaced Affections of Charlotte FforbesBook 3 in the Imperfect Lives series  #1 New Zealand best-seller!"Humorous, evocative and as much fun as its predecessors.""Entertainment with a bit of grit." Charlotte Fforbes' loveless childhood taught her that feelings only lead to disappointment, and that it's much safer to manage all aspects of your life with aloof efficiency. And it works brilliantly, right up until the day she falls in love with Patrick.
Her married boss. Any sane woman would know that her feelings will never be reciprocated. But first love has muffled Charlotte's reason with duct-tape and locked it in a cellar, and she will do anything to find a way into Patrick's heart. Including arranging to be nanny-for-a-month to the small children of Patrick and his wife and two other families at a Lake Como villa. Charlotte's complete lack of child-minding experience is the least of her worries.
She must also fend off unwanted seducers, dogs, gate-crashers and a large, vengeful ghost from Patrick's past. But her biggest test comes when she finally sees the folly of her plan and has to ask - can she ever feel love like this again? (364 ages approx)
