Kristi Callahan is a single mom raising a teenage daughter. She's an interior designer and owns a home staging company, Ready Set Sold, along with her two best friends. Kristi was raised by a young single mom and she repeated the pattern by becoming a teenage mother herself. Her daughter Jenna's dad didn't stick around after Kristi became pregnant, and Kristi made the decision to stay single until Jenna graduates high school rather than expose her daughter to any more dead-beat men. Nate McTavish is a single dad raising twin 4 year old daughters. Nate is a botany professor and has been raising his daughters since his wife died two years ago. In an attempt to escape from meddling in-laws and try to get a fresh start, Nate has decided to put his house on the market and look for something smaller and closer to the university where he teaches. Nate's entire life is consumed by raising his daughters and teaching, he doesn't have time to even think about dating, let alone starting a relationship. Kristi and Nate feel an instant attraction for each other and sparks fly while she works at staging his home for sale. They end up going on a couple of "fake" dates in an attempt to thwart match-making attempts by both of their families, but those fake dates lead to some very real kisses. After one night of passion, Kristi runs away; but Nate is not ready to give up on the magic they've found. THE DADDY PROJECT is a sweet romance with a great family dynamic and steamy, erotic tension. Lee McKenzie had me laughing out loud while reading this book with her descriptions of the twins and Jenna. Ms. McKenzie has a knack for writing about family dynamics and it made this a very enjoyable read.
