A young single dad. An older man. An impossible love story. Milo I lost everyone I’ve ever loved, but there’s one person I’m determined to keep. The baby I was left with when tragedy struck once more. Now my life is all about surviving. I don’t have time to date, or relationships. That is until Ellis, the sexy, older, and kind primary school teacher who’s currently living rent free in my head with no intention of moving out, gives me the second job I desperately need. But why would he want a guy from the wrong side of town, who’s barely paying the bills and comes with a plus one? Ellis Moving to Stillwater was the fresh start I needed after having my heart stomped on and my career practically destroyed. Despite my family’s best efforts, I’m determined that nothing shall break through the walls I’ve built around myself. No more relationships. That is until I meet the much younger grocery store cashier with the warm brown eyes, and accidentally give him a job. As I get to know Milo, brick by brick that wall is coming down and no matter how much I resist I’m starting to run out of excuses as to why I shouldn’t give in. But why would he want anything with someone much older when he could have anyone else? Breakthrough is book 2 in Ana Ashley’s series, Dads of Stillwater. This story contains an age gap, a sweet nine-month-old baby everyone will coo about, all the feels and Ana Ashley’s usual happy ever after.
