Summary
A routine domestic call changes everything when Lucy Chen and Tim Bradford find a three-year-old girl alone in the middle of chaos. While they wait for CPS to respond, Lucy volunteers to care for her temporarily. But “temporary” has a way of turning into something more, and Lucy quickly realizes she’s in over her head—with parenting, with balancing the job, and with the man who’s always at her side.

Summary
He spotted a brown-haired girl standing in the frozen food aisle, wearing a blue cardigan he swore he’d seen before.
She turned, and he rubbed his eyes, blinked until he was sure his vision wasn’t playing tricks on him.
A baby, no older than two or three months, was strapped to her chest, fussing and gurgling nonsense.
Tim froze. Where in the world had she acquired a baby?
~
Tim and Lucy co-parent a newborn while balancing schoolwork, college applications, and the growing tension stretching between them.
