“Margot Early’s stories pack a powerful punch. She writes with warmth, wit and emotional depth. A sheer pleasure.”-Debbie Macomber
Kal Johnson is a still-grieving widower with a young child. He can’t imagine marrying again-not for love, anyway. But it’s becoming increasingly clear that his daughter needs someone besides him. A mother. Kal’s solution is to place an ad in a local magazine.
Wanted: Woman to enter celibate marriage and be stepmother to four-year-old girl. Send child-rearing philosophies to Mr. Family.
Erika Blade is a woman who’s afraid of love. And sex. She answers the ad, figuring she’s probably the only person in the whole world to whom a “celibate marriage” would appeal. After all, she does want children, but she doesn’t want to acquire them in the usual way. As it turns out, Kal likes her letter-and soon discovers that he likes her. More than likes. He’s attracted to her. The one thing that wasn’t supposed to happen.
