A Hero for Kelsey — Carolyne Aarsen

There had been a time when Kelsey Swain thought a man would come along who would take away her troubles and make her complete. Now she knew better. The struggling single mom could only count on herself -- no matter what dashing Will Dempsey made her want to believe.

There were a million reasons why Will shouldn't fall for his late friend's widow. The most important: Settling down with a ready-made family wasn't his style. But somehow he found himself wanting to show Kelsey that he could be the man she'd once dreamed of...the man she was now convinced didn't exist.
