What the Nanny Saw by Kaira Rouda
4.0
Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for providing this book, with my honest review below.
What the Nanny Saw is the third book in a series following Paul Strom’s universe, which I mention because I had read The Second Mrs. Strom not realizing it was following Best Day Ever (the first book in the series). There is no enjoyment taken away if you have not read other books in the series, but if you have you may be even more interested in picking this up.
What the Nanny Saw follows Cecilia, who is the second Mrs. Strom, as she lives out her best fantasy on the beach, now rich and with a baby from her lover, Evan. When nanny Lizzie enters her life you’d think it would be the cherry on her easy living Sunday, but Evan actually kind of sucks, her husband ex husband Paul is out of jail and wants back with Cecilia, Nanny Lizzie has aspirations to be a Malibu Trad Wife (traditional wife and mom) and is delusional, and Cecilia really wasn’t wired to be a mom. This leads to a perfect storm of a mystery and it could not have happened to a worse person.
I enjoyed the plot turns on this one and really I enjoy bad people getting put through a bit of a wringer of its deserved, not hardcore, and part of an entertaining book, such as What the Nanny Saw. This one will keep you engaged and I enjoyed the hint of more to come!
