Man of the Month —- MR. JANUARY ... Name: Blake Donavan Description: Tough. Formidable. Lonely . . . Fears: Surprises, like the unsmiling little girl who suddenly appeared on his doorstep and called him "daddy;" Meredith Calhoun, the one woman who could melt his heart of ice... Conclusion: He's colder than the snow in winter. Blake Donavan lived alone and liked it that way. His nemesis was love, but he had one obsession-and her name was Meredith Calhoun. After five years, Meredith had come home. A successful author, she was no longer the shy, insecure girl Blake had once so cruelly rejected. But Meredith would never know that that rejection had cost Blake his heart ...and the child who should have been theirs.
