He''s my dad—the World''s Most Eligible Bachelor!Ever since Grandma, the dowager duchess, told everyone on TV that my dad was in America looking for a wife, unmarried ladies chase him everywhere. We''re trying to get to my uncle''s ranch, but now we''re hiding out. Those women can be rough on a guy!My dad is real cute…I can tell when Sydney looks at him. She''s the nice lady who gave us a lift. My daddy looks at her kind of funny too, like he''s eaten bad broccoli. But my daddy says we can''t tell Sydney he''s a duke. I like pretend, but I sure wish Sydney knew. Maybe then she''d want to marry my dad…and be my new mommy!Ever hopeful,Penny
