Second Chances (Special Edition)

The first rule of dating as a single mother should be: Don't date your son's teacher.

The second rule should be: Don't let your past hold you back from your future.

But when the gorgeous, much-too-young-for-me single dad moved to town, I found it impossible to avoid his advances. Especially when my sister and her husband gave him an open invitation to our weekly family dinners.

I knew better than to let anything happen between us. I didn't want to get close to him and his daughter, only for him to possibly walk away. Just like my kids' father had done to them.

Letting Dominic into our lives was never the plan. I needed to be strong, to resist the temptation and keep everyone's hearts intact.

The only problem was that I wasn't strong enough to fight our chemistry when the pull was so powerful.

Everyone has weaknesses.

And Dominic? Well, he just happened to be mine.
