title: The Courtship of Carol Sommars
author: Macomber, Debbie
description: Staying one step ahead of her energetic teenage son had taught Carol Sommars some pretty fancy footwork. But when said teen rallied his best buddy's seductive single dad to sweep her off her feet, the pace got fiercer. Carol vowed to sidestep the issue. Handsome Alex Preston could disco with debutantes for all she cared--this thirty-plus mom was beating a hasty retreat.
  
  Alex was weary of mindless dates. Carol was a woman of substance, and he wanted her. With the two boys on his side and with some gentle, persistent wooing, he'd bring a sparkle to Carol's eyes ... then watch them glaze with satisfying passion. Unfortunately, he hadn't reckoned on Carol's skilled evasion tactics, nor the unexpected glimmer of her tears....
