The Only Way to Live (The Mechanics of Love, #1)

by M.A. Innes

most people didn’t care what anyone else was doing as long as you smiled at them while you did it.

I’d thought raising a gay, kinky teenage boy would have been the death of me, but Derek was taking the cake.

Who knew you could be judgmental about so many innocent things?

I’d rather take the chance of getting burned than living the rest of my life with the what if hanging over my head.

I didn’t fear what if…I feared what might have been.

Humans came in all different shapes and sizes and some were just naturally very interesting to look at.

To some people, inclusive had a very narrow definition.

“I’ve been trying to be a gentleman.” “Be more of an asshole. Please be more of an asshole.”

A plan had to be safer than the possibility of a restraining order.
