Everything I Never Wanted: Men of Merit

By Macee McNeill

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.
