The Manny

by Holly Peterson

In THE MANNY, Jamie Whitfield, small-town girl turned Park Avenue working mom, gets whiplash running from nursery school drop-off to her demanding TV news job to glamorous dinner parties. To make things worse, she feels her detached lawyer husband is lacking as a role model, especially where her nine-year-old son is concerned. But when Jamie hires The Manny—a male nanny—he not only transforms her son’s life, but her own. With a fiery media subplot and a keen eye on the New York social scene, Holly Peterson has created a smart, sexy comedy.
Funny, fresh, and deliciously dishy, THE MANNY is the perfect escape this summer.
