“Tomas was very straight with me,” she said carefully, “about not wanting to marry again. I offered to have this baby, regardless.”

Maura nodded once, accepting that answer even though she obviously didn’t like it. Her disapproval and disappointment fisted hard around Angie’s heart and squeezed with all its might.

If she couldn’t change the stubborn man’s mind in the meantime.

“I’m not going to tell you how to live your life, Angie, that’s not my place. But you know I was a single mother, twice over. I was lucky Charles came along and gave us all his love and this life and a complete family. I know which option I preferred, and that’s all I have to say to you.”
