      The Idea of Him
    • 2007

      A solid middle-class girl from Middle America, Jamie Whitfield isn't "one of them" but she lives in the wealthiest section of Manhattan. And she has most everything they have--a big new apartment, full-time help with her three children, as well as her very own detached Master of the Universe attorney husband. What she doesn't have is a full-time father figure for their struggling nine-year-old son, Dylan. Enter the manny. At first the idea of paying a man to provide a role model for Dylan sounds too crazy to be true, but one look at Peter Bailey is enough to convince Jamie that the idea may not be quite so insane after all. Peter reminds her of everything she once was, still misses, and underneath all the high-society glitz, still is. But will the new manny in her life put the ground back beneath her feet, or sweep her off them?--From publisher description.
