Two
single parents and three adorable kids are about to have a summer they'll never

Following the sudden death of his wife, Nathan Bell has spent nearly two years burying himself in work and neglecting his biggest responsibility: his daughter. Overcome with guilt, he wants to connect with little Marley, but he doesn’t know how to do it alone. And then Jenna Savage throws him a lifeline.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A single mom of twins, Jenna is more than capable of taking care of Nate’s adorable two-year-old, and wants to help Nathan however she can. Soon, attachments are made, forcing Jenna and her kids into new territory. And the closer everyone becomes, the more right it feels.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Falling in love forces Nathan to face his biggest fear, and when hearts, both big and little, are on the line, the only thing scarier than needing someone is losing them all.

Excerpt
Marley kept whining. She
stomped her foot and shook her head at her father when he held out a stuffed
giraffe. Nate swapped it out for a book, turning to a page and pointing at one
of the pictures. She wasn’t interested. Marley fell back onto her butt as tears
hit her cheeks. Her legs kicked against the floor with fury.
Nate pinched his eyes
shut, ran a hand through his hair, and looked down at her. He appeared lost,
and possibly on the brink of a melt-down himself.
He was overwhelmed, that
was clear.
“Has she eaten dinner?
Maybe she’s hungry,” I said, walking over to the play yard. On instinct, I bent
over the gate and held out my arms. I wanted to soothe her somehow. I at least
wanted to try. I hated seeing this sweet thing so upset.
Marley immediately stood
up and came to me. When I got her on my hip, she settled down and played with
the chain around my neck again.
“I don’t know what she
is,” Nate replied. He held up his glasses and rubbed at his eyes. “I guess she
could be hungry.”
“If you want, I can take
her out there and she can eat with us. It’s just me and my kids.”
“Really?”
“Sure. What does she
like off the menu?”
He looked at Marley,
thinking hard on that question. “Normal two-year-old stuff?” Our gazes met. I
saw the embarrassment in his eyes before he looked down and away. “Sorry. I
really don’t know what she likes. I haven’t spent much time with her.” He
gripped the back of his neck, mumbling, “I’m sure that’s obvious right now.”
His shame was palpable.
Something about the way
Nate spoke, the humiliation in his voice, the rejection—he wanted to
know his daughter. He wanted to have the answer to any question I could ask him
about her, and he didn’t know how.
Everything inside me
that made me who I was, wanted to help him.
