Dear Internet: Am I a horrible person for wanting to sabotage my work assignment-completely wreck a dating contest-because I hate the idea of love? , I know it sounds bad, but just hear me out, okay? I (33F) work at a local paper, and two months ago, my editor assigned me a huge project-run the upcoming, highly anticipated Bachelor Anonymous contest. In essence, I'm supposed to help a reader-nominated bachelor find his special someone, and while I should be excited to handle something of this magnitude solo, I can't help but get queasy over how gross it feels. Like, how cheesy could this thing get? Not to mention, I'm the last person who should be involved in this-my dating and relationship history is a cluster. Generally, the person in charge of these things shouldn't fantasize about lighting the whole three-ring dating circus on fire. Anyway, men from all over Southern California, vying for the coveted bachelor role, submitted their personal ads to my paper. The readers voted, and Single Dad Seeks Juliet won by a landslide. Enter Mr. Bachelor Anonymous (40M), the single dad Romeo seeking his Juliet. Blah, blah, blah, right? Wrong. You guys-and I cannot stress this enough-this guy is the ultimate man in a six-foot-three, chiseled-muscle, freaking Adonis package with aquamarine eyes that would haunt the dreams of an insomniac. He's a former Navy SEAL, successful business owner, motocross-riding, charming, supportive, funny-as-heck single dad, and the more time I spend with him, the more I want to bring this contest thing crumbling to the ground for an entirely different reason. Real talk: I think I'm falling for him. Me, the woman who despises love, might be falling for the completely off-limits Bachelor who I'm ironically assigned to help find love, while five other women think they're the only contestants competing for his heart. So, Internet. Am I scum? Or is all fair in love and war?

I am not getting involved with another man again. I don’t care if he’s super hot. I don’t care if he’s a caring single dad with two adorable kids. I don’t care that he’s a freaking billionaire. Or that he lives across the street. And keeps looking at me like he wants to eat me up. So my ex was a no-good, low-life cheater. And even though somewhere deep down I knew he wasn’t my prince charming, the betrayal still stings. I needed to get out of the city and clear my head. Go drink some wine in a rural cabin in Texas and swear off men for good. Instead, I ran into a football-playing billionaire who gives me looks so hot it makes me sweat. Carter Christensen is a dream come to life. With a rock-hard body and more riches than Midas, he’s everything a girl could want. Throw in the fact that he’s got two little twin daughters he’d move heaven and earth for, and the guy is a walking, talking fantasy. But the whole point of this escapade was to mend my broken heart and get my libido in check...not get riled up again by the sexiest man I’ve ever seen in my life. And with the way he loves and protects his daughters, I can’t just flit into his life and then run before things go south. But still, a little fun on vacation never hurt anyone, right? **The Billionaire Single Dad is a full-length standalone billionaire romance, with no cliffhangers or cheating and a swoon-worthy HEA.**

Conventional wisdom holds that fathers have few parenting skills and that mothers always know best. The single father is often considered a mythical creature, found only in sitcoms as an object of humor or pity. Where does that leave real single dads?

It’s a guidebook for the rocky road of single fatherhood, extending encouragement, confidence, and challenges, using specific examples from dads who’ve survived parenting and have hope to offer. There are no unreachable requirements for perfect fatherhood here and no twisty theological mysteries—just authentic, downto- earth wisdom from one dad to another.
