These are R-rated excerpts from The Guardian. It wouldn't let me keep the PG-13 rating the rest of the book holds. Enjoy if you'd like, it doesn't add anything but romance to the story. No crucial plot points, just some one on one time for Emil and Evan XD

Torn between love and his dream, Eric chooses the latter, leaving a shattered Allison behind. 8 years later Eric returns to his home town only to find that Allison is a single mother to a seven year old that looks exactly like him. This time Eric is faced with the same dilemma, choosing between the woman he always loved and the daughter who quickly stole his heart, or the career he's always wanted. Will he choose his career or realise that there are something more important before it's too late?
