Description
📖 Paperback Edition — He keeps buying a second coffee for the wife who left. The dad on the bench beside him drinks it.
Peter Lyle brings the spare water bottle, the signed forms, Band-Aids in three sizes, and a second coffee he keeps buying for a wife who divorced him fourteen months ago.
Then Dev Malhotra drops onto the bench beside him, drinks it, and saves him a seat every Saturday after.
Dev is everything Peter isn’t. Loud. Easy. Built like he hauls goalposts for fun. A devoted dad so scared of becoming the optional parent that he plans every weekend like a cruise director. When the coach’s knee gives out and they’re both drafted as assistants, Peter gets three practices a week of Dev’s hands, Dev’s laugh, and Dev’s soaked T-shirt in a very small equipment shed.
Peter has known he’s bisexual since he was nineteen. He has never done anything about it.
So he makes a list. It’s ranked.
They have two kid-free nights a week, one king bed at an overnight coaching clinic, and a buttoned-up accountant who turns out to give very precise orders. The sex is the easy part.
The hard part is that two fathers falling in love doesn’t make four people a family. If they want a future, they’ll have to stop treating love like a seat someone else might take.
