Dads of Stillwater

I lost everything in the fight for my daughter.... So, with my tail between my legs and completely out of options, I ran back to Stillwater. The town that stole everything from me. The only silver lining is...Arlo. Arlo, who won my daughter’s heart with a simple gesture. Arlo, who charmed me before I even knew his name. And here I thought returning home was going to be yet another train-wreck.

Meeting at a bachelor auction for charity had trouble written all over it as far as I was concerned, especially when the guy that won the bid for me seemed to be after only one thing...a good time between the sheets. Refusing Fletcher’s advances was easy the first time round. After all, we weren’t meant to see each other again. Except I’ve just moved to Stillwater where Fletcher lives. Except both our kids are in the same class. Now the kids are fighting and I’m ready to throw my own punches. If only Fletcher wasn’t as goddamn irresistible as he is irritating.

My mother always told me to watch out for the break in the clouds. I never thought that would come in the form of the sexy, older, and kind primary school teacher who’s currently living rent free in my head with no intention of moving out. How can I survive Ellis when he takes an interest in my community, takes an interest in my daughter, and the way he looks at me…I think he may be taking an interest in me, too. Having dreams is one thing. Believing they can come true is…daring to hope that for once I may get the happily ever after I’ve longed for.

If I had a dollar for every mistake I made I’d be a billionaire. But there’s only one mistake I regret. Breaking my promise to the only person who ever understood my need to get away from a future I was destined for but didn’t want…Tyler. I’ve touched many hearts through my music, but the only one I’ve ever wanted to touch might be lost to me forever.
