The Fix-It Man

The right man for the job... California teacher Zach Wainwright doesn't know a socket wrench from needle-nosed pliers, but landing a job as a live-in handyman for a widow is the answer to his prayers. He's a smart man. Surely he can handle the small maintenance needs of a little old lady in exchange for a peaceful, inexpensive room while he's in Illinois working on his doctorate. Widowed Diana Thatcher's struggling with a creaky old house and two boisterous daughters aged twelve and thirteen. An elderly scholar who can pay rent and make minor home repairs sounds perfect until she discovers he's a bronzed Adonis. His handyman skills are questionable, but he shows a talent for mending broken hearts. Unfortunately, her family doesn't need a temporary patch. They need a man who can build a foundation for the future. Note: Previously published by Harlequin in 1986, this Vintage VLT edition has been significantly re-edited and updated.
