“I’d be more than okay with it. I don’t want our kids to be raised by nannies like I was. I want to be there.”
“But it might be weird being a stay-at-home dad.”
I brush a tear from her cheek with my thumb. “Sweetheart, I’m a nurse in a female-dominated field. I’m used to that.”
“Huh.” Her brow furrowed, she turns away from me and drifts over to plop down onto the couch.
Sitting next to her and hugging her into my side, I go over the calendar in my head, adding the weeks since our trip to the mountains. “You’re not far along. You still have time to decide. But I’m all in. Whatever you need to do.”

“I resolve to stop trying to be Superwoman.”

“Oh, I like it when you wake me like that,” I whisper, referring to the warm, hard woody pressed between my butt cheeks.
“Well, this ass of yours was snuggled up to my dick and—”
“Are you saying my ass is fat?”
“I’m not. I’m saying your ass is mine.” He makes the point by stroking his erection up and down between my cheeks.
“Think you can get me off in ten minutes? Because I’ve got an eight o’clock meeting.”
Sliding an arm under me, Sam hauls me up so my back’s on his chest, palms a breast with one hand, and dives into my folds with the other, making me groan. “Oh, that feels so—”
“Mommy!” a squeaky voice shouts.
I yelp, and Sam mutters a curse before he eases me back onto my side of the bed while I pull the sheet up to cover my torso.
After squeezing my eyes shut for a moment to gather my wits, I face the eighteen-month-old boy standing next to our bed, a proud grin on his face.
“Guess somebody learned how to climb out of his crib,” I say, my voice bright with disappointment.
“Maybe he can go work on climbing back in?” Sam suggests.
“Up! Up!” Liam demands.
“You want me to get him?” Sam asks. “The excitement killed my boner.”
“If you don’t mind. I should probably jump in the shower.”
After a quick kiss to my shoulder, he whispers, “If I get him settled quick enough, I’ll join you.”
“Good luck with that.”
By the time Sam returns, I’ve showered and dried my hair and am putting on makeup. Meeting his eyes in the mirror, I ask, “Are we ever going to have sex again?”
“I know, I know, I need to fix the lock on that door.”
“Madison was so easy. She made me think all babies would be easy.”
Sam drops a kiss onto the side of my neck. “Mm-hm. And then Liam arrived to prove us wrong.”
A wave of emotion hits me so hard I have to grip the edge of the counter.
