House Mate

Goals for a fresh start:



1. Move out of my parents' house.



2. Get my teaching career back on track



3. Join a widow support group



4. Don't fall in love with my dad's coworker/my new landlord.



After losing my husband three years ago, I'm ready for a fresh start for me and my daughter. I appreciate all of my parents' help, of course, but I can't live with them forever (and I don't want to). Dr. Drew Reed, my father's coworker, informs me his basement (turned income-property) is available for rent. And he also needs a part time nanny. Lucky for him, I can do both!



But living in such close proximity, seeing him in those dang sexy surgical scrubs, and watching him with our girls . . . is making my heart thaw in ways I never expected. But am I ready to love again?
