I’m the single-mom kindergarten teacher who moved next door to a widowed TV anchor—and somehow became his enemies-to-lovers co-host. How did a big-city slow burn turn into my second chance? Logan Brooks is all edges and evening headlines. I’m sunshine, circle time and a heart stitched back together. He’s my neighbor—and the man I should avoid. A live TV segment goes sideways and he laces our fingers together to steady me. The city swoons. I pretend I don’t. He waits with my son. He reads to my kindergarteners in that velvet voice. He leaves a paper flower—For courage. Midnight scripts. One shared umbrella. His smile finding me off-camera. Somewhere between coffee and camera lights, I fall—exactly where I shouldn’t. Then the storm hits with tabloids, a network “scandal” and a custody fight that could take everything. He’s scared to love again. I’m terrified to risk my boy’s world. When Logan says he’s all-in—on us, on family—the only thing left is my yes. But my yes could turn our lives inside out. Worst case? I walk away to keep us safe…and teach my son that fear beats love.
