He's the One: A Coming Home Short Story, #4

By Kristi Rose

From USA TODAY Bestselling Author Kristi Rose comes an unrequited love story that gives all the feels without taking up the entire day. 

 

Having given up on the dream of a husband but refusing to give up the dream of a baby, Melinda Bane is putting her eggs into the sperm bank basket. When a fire puts her dreams on hold, she turns to her oldest friend Jared to help her through, like he always has. 

Jared doesn't mind running to help his brother's ex-wife, Melinda, whenever she needs him. But while helping her repair her sunroom and learning of her hopes for a family, Jared has an idea of how he can fix even more than her home.

 

Fun Fact: Melinda is the 'mean girl" in the book The Girl He Knows. Every mean girl has an interesting and worth telling story.
