    Summary

    Single parent Alex has everything going for him - he's got a good job with the Okonjo House Shelter in New York. His son Frankie has just started school. And he has enough free time to take on some pro-bono cases with Luna & Westbrook.

    Henry, single and not quite ready to mingle (thank you very much), crushes from afar until a baby is left with the Okonjo House Shelter. More precisely: with Henry. Who doesn't know much about babies, to be fair. Lucky for him, he knows a pretty competent single dad.

    Navigating parenthood, self-discovery, and self-worth, can Alex and Henry find the same orbit?

    ===

    Alex’s mornings start the same way now.

    Once, in law school, it would have been: wake up, consume enough caffeine to fund a small country, get in a last minute cram, and maybe kiss his then-girlfriend goodbye to get in extra time in the library.

    Priorities are different now.
    ----
    Infants, Henry knows, have cries designed to make sure they are noticed because they need other humans to help the person who’s given birth. This is a thing that Henry knows, it’s something the shelter learned in getting qualified for him and Pez to qualify as a Safe Haven in New York.
