The part about the meltdown had me laughing. Yeah a vacation with perfectly behaved kids (especially 4 of them) is just not going to happen.

Certainly a different guy meets gal idea :) I would read this one.<br /><br />At the risk of sounding nit-picky, I think the guy on the cover is a hunk, but I avoid those shirtless men covers when I can. It gives off a vibe of being a lightweight plot, even if it's not.
