About this ebook
What was a marriage of convenience?
Little Wendy Sanders needed a new mummy, and her hunky single dad, Kenny, could sure use a wife. So why not Wendy's 'Aunt' Patsy Morgan, who gave good girl talk and dressed real cool? After all, Patsy was Kenny's best buddy practically family already.
Hurray! Kenny proposed. And Patsy devoted herself to motherhood. But Wendy was confused. Shouldn't mommies and daddies share a bed? And shouldn't they kiss each other all the time? Wendy hoped her mommy and daddy would hurry up and learn what even a kid could see: that they were made for each other and madly in love!
