The Strawberry Patch Pancake House by Laurie Gilmore | single dad x nanny spicy romance

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli review The Strawberry Patch Pancake House by Laurie Gilmore, the fourth book in the Dream Harbor series. They dive into the signature “insta-love” setup the series is known for—and question whether it ever really works for them.

The book follows Archer, a Michelin-starred chef living in Paris, who’s suddenly called to Dream Harbor to raise a daughter he didn’t know existed after the mother passes away. Enter Iris, a yoga instructor who ends up becoming Olive’s nanny—not because she’s qualified, but because small-town connections and financial need make it happen. Join the besties as they discuss whether or not they would recommend this book!
