description: Daddy is not a title Rue Murray wanted but he never thought hed have sex with a woman either. Now hes the unwitting father of a newborn named Alice. Between bartending and cosmetology school Rue doesnt have time for babies but he cant give her up. What Rue needs is a babysitter and hes running out of options. Hes on the verge of quitting school to watch Alice himself when he remembers his reclusive new neighbor Erik.Erik Van Nuys is a sci-fi novelist with anxiety issues to spare. He doesnt like people in general and he likes babies even less. Still with his royalties dwindling he could use the extra cash. Reluctantly he takes on the role of mannyand even more reluctantly he finds himself falling for Alice and her flamboyant father.Rue and Erik are as different as two people can be and Alice is the unlikeliest of babies but Rue has never been happier than when Alice and Erik are by his side. At least not until he receives an offer that puts all his dreams within reach and hes forced to choose: the future hes always wanted or the family he thought he never did.
