Roommate's Guide to Love

Guide to Love rule #6: Flings are temporary. Falling for the single dad could be forever.

I never thought I'd quit my job as a middle school teacher because of a group of unpleasant parents, yet I did with my middle finger in the air and no regrets.

For years we've had the perfect “situationship.” I can't get enough of the flirty bar owner, and neither of us wants anything serious. So twice a year when I visit my family we do our thing. It's deliciously sexy, with no strings attached. But when an unexpected surprise lands on his doorstep in a pink dress and a baby carrier, everything changes—especially after he asks me to move in to help raise his niece.
