Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
A widower looking for a sensible wife gets more than he bargained for when his lovely new housekeeper begins to stir his closed-off heart.

With Phoebe Kropf's learning disabilities and anxiety, her family tends to coddle her. She knows she is loved but longs to be treated as the competent adult she is. So when her friend asks her to take over her housekeeping job during the holiday season, Phoebe is excited to accept the role-especially since it means moving to a place where no one has any preconceived notions about her and where she can allow herself to spread her wings.

Seth Beiler, a widower and a skilled woodworker who creates sought-after chess sets, carries the weight of his six younger brothers' well-being on his shoulders. His wife passed away four years ago and he has been trying to care for his household alone ever since. Unable to carry on any longer without someone he can always depend on, he tasks his cousins to be on the lookout for an eligible woman to marry, someone like his former wife-organized, practical, and efficient. But he's distracted by his spontaneous and spirited new housekeeper who is not at all what he was expecting.

As Phoebe and Seth share laughter, heartwarming meals, unconventional chess matches and unexpected moments that bring them closer together, they realize they'll both need to rectify their own unresolved issues before they have any chance of moving forward...together.
