Ending my marriage is one of the best things I've ever done, and I vowed never to settle for anything less than I deserved again. In fact, taking time for myself—with no distractions—was all I needed.
Of course, I never saw him coming. Gorgeous and amusing, he convinced me to agree to five rules.
Number one: Only lies.
Number two: One day only.
Number three: Have fun.
Number four: Speak of nothing sad.
Number five: No falling in love.
It was completely out of my comfort zone, but I owed my recovering heart a day of celebration.
One thing is for certain. That day changed my life in more ways than one. I never thought I'd see my handsome mystery man again, and I definitely didn't plan to run into him while holding his baby in my arms.
The situation has changed, but my convictions stand, and I won't settle for anyone ever again. One day and a baby doesn't guarantee a life of happiness.
Only he refuses to let me go.
So now, I have to figure out where we go from here.
