I never had a dad.
My father left when I was little. Too little to remember what he looked like, what his voice sounded like, or anything else about him.
As far as I know, he walked out and never looked back.
Mom never blamed him.
She said being a teenage parent was hard. That not everyone was cut out for it.
She never said he was a bad person.
I always thought that was weird.
She said she'd do it all over again. Quitting school. Giving up her friends. Working whatever jobs she could find. Being the person who showed up to every game, every parent-teacher conference, every stupid school event I didn't even want to attend.
All of it.
She never made me feel like I'd ruined her life.
If anything, she made me feel like I'd given it one.
And now I'm about to leave her.
So I'm going to find her someone.
I've got the entire summer to find my mom a boyfriend.
How hard could it be?
OR.
Thea spent eighteen years keeping her past buried to protect her son. Now that he's leaving for college, he's determined to find her someone to love-and in doing so, he might uncover everything she tried to leave behind.

Just writing for fun, mostly because the characters in my head refuse to shut up.
No promises of perfection-just questionable decisions, messy romances, dangerous secrets, gangsters, and hopefully a few characters you'll end up getting far too attached to.
