In Good Company by Jen TuranoMy rating: 💛💛💛💛
In Good Company was another fun historical rom com with a mystery from Jen Turano.
Everett, oh Everett. A dashing gentleman readers will love but would also shake awake to see the dreaded path he is heading with the choices he is making. He was redeemed with the character growth he undergone.
Millie was bright, and lovely and a gem. Her unique and quirky personality did not fit society’s snobbish standards, but it broke down walls and helped Everett grow close to the three children he got guardianship off. Millie had a way of breaking down walls and getting to the heart of matters. Her naïve personality and tendency to use wrong words caused a few laughing out loud moments.
Caroline was a very well written character. She made me cringe every time she appeared in a scene. I just good not stand her ugliness despite her outward beauty. The twist at the end was not expected but looking back should have been expected because of the conniving lady she was and how her reputation in society was of utmost importance.
As always, I enjoyed the added mystery of Jen Turano’s stories.
I was thoroughly entertained through the audiobook performance.
*I listened to the audiobook on Everand.*

About the book:
After spending her childhood in an orphanage, Millie Longfellow is determined to become the best nanny the East Coast has ever seen. Unfortunately, her playfulness and enthusiasm tend to bring about situations that have employers looking askance at her methods. After her most recent dismissal, Millie is forced to return yet again to an employment agency.
Everett Mulberry has suddenly and quite unexpectedly found himself responsible for three children he’s never met. Attempting fatherhood while also pacifying the less-than-thrilled socialite he intends to marry is made even more complicated when the children scare off every nanny he hires. About to depart for Newport, Rhode Island, for the summer, he’s desperate for competent childcare.
At wit’s end with both Millie and Everett, the employment agency gives them one last chance–with each other. Everett is wary of Millie’s penchant for disaster, and she’s not entirely keen on another snobby, grumpy employer, but they’re both out of options. As Millie falls in love with her mischievous charges and tries to stay one step ahead of them, Everett is more focused on achieving the coveted status of society’s upper echelons. As he investigates the suspicious circumstances surrounding the children’s parents’ death, will it take the loss of those he loves to learn whose company he truly wants for the rest of his life?
