our children. Who will make them a priority,” he said.
    His words made her feel better that he was Ty’s father. But she still didn’t know if he was just paying lip service to the type of man he thought he should be. And to be fair, he probably didn’t know either. She’d had similar uncertainty about becoming a parent. She’d never expected to be a mom and had thought she’d have a nanny who took care of the kid all the time. But once Ty was in her arms, she’d realized she didn’t want to miss a moment of his life.
    She nodded. “I want that, too. I mean in a dad. I don’t want a man who is on his BlackBerry with the office while he is at home and supposed to be spending time with the family.”
    â€œGood. Something we have in common,” he said. “We both think family should come first. That is partly why I wasn’t ready to settle down with you two years ago, Becca.”
    â€œLife is complicated sometimes,” she said.
    â€œVery.”
    He leaned forward and took her hand in his. “I really do want this to be a fresh start for us.”
    She was afraid to believe him. She knew that they’d never be able to make a fresh start unless she came clean first about Ty. But tonight she didn’t want to ruin the feeling between them. That excitement and hope that came from getting to know someone the first time—for her it was building on the fantasies she’d spun around Cam since she’d had Ty.
    She wasn’t going to lie; she’d wanted him to come back into her life. She just never thought that he would. And now here he was.
    â€œWhy are you staring at me?” he asked.
    â€œI just realized that I like you.”
    That made him chuckle. “What’s not to like?”
    â€œYou are autocratic and bossy,” she said.
    â€œI think you like that, too. You need a man who doesn’t let you ride roughshod all over him.”
    â€œDid I do that before?”
    â€œNo, but I think I was the exception. You are very used to getting your way,” he said.
    â€œI am. I have had to be. Since I was twenty I’ve been on my own and that means I have to make good choices.”
    â€œHave you always made them?” he asked.
    She shook her head. “No, but I try not to have regrets. I mean I can’t change any decision I made to get where I am today.”
    That was one thing she’d learned growing up. Her mother had said that everyone makes mistakes. A wise person learns from them and moves on. A fool lingers over them and spends all their time wishing they’d done something else.
    He lifted his glass. “A toast to knowing what you want, and getting it.”
    â€œA toast,” she said.
    He looked at her as if she was the very thing he wanted. That made her feel warm all over, and she knew no matter how hard she tried to keep this tame, it wasn’t going to work. She wanted Cam. He was everythingshe liked in a man. She loved his height; he was taller than she was, with big shoulders and firm muscles. She remembered the way they’d fit together when they’d made love, so perfectly, and she wanted him again.
    It had been a long time since she’d slept with a man—since Cam to be exact—and she felt overdue. But a one-night stand wasn’t the answer.
    â€œI have a confession to make,” Cam said.
    She didn’t want him to tell her anything else. She just wanted this hour to pass and for her to get into the car and drive away. And this time she hoped that they’d stay apart because the more time she spent with Cam, the more she realized that she missed having a man in her life. Missed having this man in her life.
    â€œAnd that is?” she asked.
    â€œI’m going to kiss you before you get in the car tonight,” he said.
    She shivered, and everything feminine in her came to attention. She wanted to feel his big strong arms around her again. Wanted him
