Sexy, Sad, Single Dad

He built a careful life around the husband he lost. Then his kids' teacher walked into it.

Fourteen months after his husband died, Arthur Costa has his life down to a system. Work deadlines, school runs, two seven-year-olds who need to know exactly what comes next — Artie keeps all of it moving and none of it touching the grief underneath. He isn't looking for anything for himself. He doesn't have room to.

Then he meets Ben Clarke.

Ben is patient, dry, easy in his own skin — and he's Leo and Maya's second-grade teacher. Which makes him the one man in town Artie absolutely cannot have. Teachers don't date the parents of their students, not in a place this small, where everyone is watching and one wrong move could cost Ben his job and the twins the person they love most.

But careful only holds for so long. A touch neither of them planned. A first date that shouldn't happen. A night that changes what they can keep pretending they don't want. And then the slow, terrifying part — learning that letting Ben in means letting him all the way into a house that still belongs to Santi.

Sexy, Sad, Single Dad is a tender, emotionally grounded M/M romance about grief and second chances, the families we make from the pieces we have left, and what it costs — and what it's worth — to let yourself be seen again. Low on manufactured drama, high on the things that matter, with two scene-stealing kids and a hard-won happily ever after.
