“You’d make a good dad.

“Why didn’t you and Aunt Erin have more kids?”

If it hadn’t been a nine-year-old kid asking him that question, Lance might’ve lashed out. Instead, Lance gave him a squeeze, trying to find the right words without breaking down. Out of the corner of his eye, Lance glanced at Erin. A tear ran down her cheek, and he watched as she quickly brushed it away.

Lance gave Dylan another squeeze. “Thank you. That’s high praise, coming from a wise kid. I’ll tell you what. Why don’t you leave these grown-up matters to the grown-ups?”

When he’d come to the ranch, he’d been angry with Erin for suggesting that she might find love again and start a new family. But the longing on her face after Dylan’s comment was real. He’d made Lily’s loss all about him, but after last night, and now, he could see how wrong he’d been.

But he hadn’t been able to be the man she’d wanted then...needed then. So what made him think he could be now?

Dear Reader (#u367444fe-0fed-5079-8036-4ef84f7a8f06),

Christmas is a hard season for some people, because while it is supposed to be a time of joy, for some, it is a reminder of pain and loss.
