The Strawberry Patch Pancake House by Laurie Gilmore, published by Harper Collins UK , One More Chapter, is book 4 in the Dream Harbor Series. Every book is about another couple and can easily be read as a stand alone.
Archer is a renowned chef, a workaholic, bachelor by choice and last but not least, he just became insta dad to a 5 year old girl.
Iris is a redheaded menace. She barely makes ends meet, is always just one step away from being broke and homeless. But I have questions, how can someone this broke afford kale smoothies and eating out at the local Dner? Make it makes sense.
So why not becomingf nanny of Archer's daughter?
A witty and fun read, with plotholes pretty big, but entertaining nonesoless. 3,5 stars.

As a devoted lover of the single dad trope, I hereby crown Laurie Gilmore as the undisputed queen!

Iris is broke, and the perfect solution comes knocking— a nanny job for a renowned chef who just found out he has a daughter. One simple rule: no falling for the boss/nanny. Easier said than done, right?

The setup might sound familiar, but trust me, Laurie Gilmore will make you fall in love with Dream Harbor all over again. Iris is lovable, honest, and hopelessly optimistic. Archer? Determined, a little grumpy, but a fantastic dad from day one. And then there's Olive—what can I say? 70% of my laughs came from her, so she absolutely deserves an award alongside the author.

Maybe I’m biased, but this is hands down my favorite in the series so far!

P.S. As a serial pancake eater, I feel Archer’s pain—but hey, not everyone appreciates perfection!
