Between the hotel, community service and my freelance work, romance is the last thing on my mind." "You deserve happiness too, you know." "Maybe.

He could feel the relief coming off her in waves. He smiled because she was happy, but he made sure to stay away from her. He didn't want to intrude on this moment, so he worked his way to the back of the kitchen where Emma and Mia were sitting. He leaned against the wall and looked over to see the other little boy, the one who had ruined Pluto for him, sitting happily in Ella's lap.

She was watching Ella and Jace as well. “I have a feeling that little boy isn't going to be in foster care for much longer.”

Emma smiled at them and fiercely hoped this marriage would work, that she and Daniel wouldn't split up like most couples did nowadays... Just like her parents had...

Maren flew abroad the next day for business, while I had a lawyer draft the divorce agreement that stated my leave with nothing. I skimmed through it and signed it without hesitation. Vesper sent a video that showed a fancy hall. A sign there read, "Welcome to Gideon Strathmore and Vesper Quinn's Engagement Party." Gideon was directing the manager to make arrangements. Vesper: [I mentioned engagement, and he planned this, ignoring what others think. It's happening in two days. You're welcome to attend it." In two days, it would be my 30th birthday.

Clara took it upon herself to play with the young ones until their mothers were ready to return them home.

She just had to invite it in. It was in the cool rain and deep sunshine, or even when chopping a home-grown vegetable. The point was even in the simplest thing, people could find happiness. Before, Clara didn’t know what true happiness was. This newfound feeling that touched her hea

My current life may not have been as I had planned it, but if I had a second chance, I believe I wouldn't be changing one thing.
