Mr. Family (Family Man)

Kal Johnson is a still-grieving widower with a young child. He can't imagine marrying again - not for love, anyway. But it's becoming increasingly clear that his daughter needs someone besides him. A mother. Kal's solution is to place an ad in a local magazine. Wanted: Woman to enter celibate marriage and be stepmother to four-year-old girl. Send child-rearing philosophies to Mr. Family.... Erika Blade is a woman who is afraid of love. She answers the ad, figuring she is probably the only person in the whole world to whom a "celibate marriage" would appeal. After all, she does want children but she doesn't want to aquire them in the usual way. As it turns out, Kal likes her letter - and soon discovers he likes her. More than likes. He's attracted to her. The one thing that wasn't supposed to happen.
