Why this must be read:
Author's Summary: When widower Arthur Pendragon finds out that his three children have conspired to help him find 'someone to kiss' by placing an ad on an internet dating site, he allows his guilt to push him into agreeing to go on a succession of dates even though he's determined that he's not lonely and doesn't believe in 'love'. However, someone does set his heart racing, but it's not one of the endless parade of beautiful women he has to choose from, it's the children's new babysitter, Merlin.
I'm not often a fan of these straight forward romances, yet this fic is just so addictive I couldn't stop once I got started. I fell in love with the characters: Arthur in all his oblivious glory, Merlin all patient in the background, Morgana's devious and supportive sister-ly-ness, and Arthur's kids. Oh his kids! I loved the list of questions that of course had to be asked to all of Arthur's dates as he looked for a second chance at love. Of course it's important to know who's cooler, Superman or Spiderman. XD This fic is just full of the adorable, romantic, and heart. It'll bring a grin to your face for sure.
Arthur had to concede that Merlin was probably going to be popular with his brood. In fact, even on this brief acquaintance he couldn't think of a real objection to saying yes. There was something about him. Also, if he was one of Morgana's dissertation students then he had to be at least twenty which was…better than the eighteen he had assumed upon meeting him.
"Well, Merlin," Arthur said. "I think we can come to some arrangement if you're still willing."
"Thank you, Arthur, that would be great," Merlin said, breaking into a smile, their eyes meeting, and for a moment, Arthur forgot to breathe. Bloody hell his eyes were the bluest Arthur had ever seen and that smile…
