From the back cover: No sooner had they settled in Washington than history repeated itself: the welcoming committee of available women. The casseroles. A widower Alex McKenzie might be, but he was not looking for a new wife. His 4-year-old son, however, had picked a new mommy, just in time for the holidays. Next-door neighbor Shannon O'Rourke was striking, successful and single. Not once, though, had she come bearing casseroles. (Her two-alarm-fire attempt at baking Christmas cookies with his boy quite possibly the reason). Homemaker material or not, Shannon had resurrected his withdrawn son...when even he had failed. For that, he was tempted to kiss her. Where was mistletoe when you needed it? My Thoughts: I thoroughly enjoyed this cozy story! It's always refreshing when the focus is on the well-being of the child, rather than on the romance. And, it's inspiring to view Christmas, and life, through the eyes of the child. Very nicely done!
