Overview
An instant family isn't on grouchy Connor Merritt's Christmas list, but the career-driven attorney might just discover that his next door neighbor, Wallace Routledge, and her four children are exactly what he needs. A single parent, later in life, cozy holiday rom-com filled with nosy relatives, loads of Christmas cheer, and just a little bit of sizzle!
Description
He didn't want a family for Christmas, but Santa had other ideas!
Forty-two-year-old Connor Merritt used to be the king of practical jokes. Lately, however, he feels like the joke's on him. Hoping for a few weeks of relaxing solitude, the grouchy Virginia attorney retreats to Whispering Sands Island, South Carolina, for a working vacation. But Connor's wish for peace and quiet ends abruptly when he meets the sassy—and altogether too tempting—woman next door. And her children.
Wallace Routledge never expected to be a single parent with four children. Of course, she never expected to have an ex-husband serving prison time for embezzlement, either. Or a grinch of an ex-mother-in-law intent on gaining custody of her children. And Wallace never, ever expected her new—and oh, so yummy—next-door-neighbor to enjoy spending time with her kids. And with her. Did she mention that he was yummy?
Connor never wanted a wife, much less children. But an overly observant teenager; a book-loving ten-year-old; naughty, three-year-old twins; and their adorable mama might just make him change his mind.
