Disappointing
This book sounded like it had potential, but it is very slow to start and the pace never really picks up. The Manny (male nanny) is about Jamie Whitfield, who lives on Park Avenue with her three children and her mostly absent high-powered attorney husband, Phillip. Jamie works part-time as a producer for a prime-time news program. When her 9 year old son Dylan begins having problems she hires Peter Bailey a 29 year old student who is biding his time until he get funding for his software business. Of course, Jamie and Peter are attracted to each other but this never really leads to anything over exciting. If you have time and have read every other book in the house give it a go, but I wouldn't put it at the top of a 'to-read' list.
