His holiday matchmaker

the long version

"Nathan Cooper's daughter wants only one thing for Christmas -- a new mommy. Caring for six-year-old Katie is the widowed builder's priority, and he doesn't want to risk more heartache for either of them. Yet when interior designer Alyssa McCall comes to town on a temporary assignment, both he and Katie are charmed. Working together to finish the new recreation center, Alyssa and Nathan form a connection, though Alyssa worries that she can't be the mother Katie deserves. But with one little girl -- and her handsome daddy -- determined to prove her wrong, this could be a Christmas to remember."--Back cover.
