Keeping Grace Hardcover – March 3, 2026

Grace VanHope is rebuilding her life the only way she knows how-with grit, her freshly earned degree, and her hypochondriac aunt who views funerals as grand, idea-gathering opportunities for her own planned event.Convinced she'll be dead within the year, Aunt Lucy drags Grace to the most extravagant funeral of the season where Grace collides with Benjamin Bainbridge-the man who once refused her an interview at his electronics company. Not recognizing her, he now believes she's just a salty-tongued waitress in fringed cowboy boots. Grace doesn't bother enlightening him. Why would she?But when Benjamin discovers he's suddenly responsible for his late sister's twins, Grace becomes his only hope. Unaware of her pain-both personally and professionally-Benjamin is frustrated and confused by her initial refusal to watch the twins for two weeks while he is out of town.What begins as a two-week nanny arrangement turns into something far messier-and far more healing-than either of them expected. Between outrageous Amex bills, missed deadlines and unexpected admiration, Grace finds herself laughing again...feeling again...and healing in ways she never imagined.Heart, humor, and a whole lot of hope-Keeping Grace is a tender, witty romance about second chances and the courage it takes to start again.
