Saving Throw

Rene was my first everything. Best friend, first kiss, first love, first heartbreak.Seven years after walking out of my life, they tear open old wounds with a single photo of a smiling little boy and the message they're coming home.Mo has my smile and Rene's eyes. It kills me that I didn't know about him sooner. As furious as the news Rene kept such a major secret makes me, I want a relationship with my son more than I want to rehash old arguments. Besides, Rene has more baggage than the 747 they flew in on, and I swore off love the first time they left me heartbroken.When I learn Rene and Mo need a place to stay while they settle into life in Vancouver, it sounds like a perfect opportunity. I've got a spare room. What better way to figure out co-parenting than living together? It's not like I'm going to fall for the ex who hurt me deeper than anyone else could. That would be ridiculous.
