Dixie Parish will never have a family of her own. Not now, not after everything she's lost. But when bachelor Rhett Brown ask her to be a temporary nanny to his motherless children, she can't refuse. They need her--just as much as she needs them. The bottom had dropped out of Rhett's comfortable world when he found himself facing parenthood alone. Now, thanks to Dixie, the children are smiling again--and his heart is stirring with long-forgotten sensations. For Rhett, it's all to easy to forget that Dixie isn't here to stay.
