Learning to Stay: An MM Single Dad Romance
Lindie Keene
He inherited triplets. Six weeks later, he's barely standing.
Hendrik Welsin built a tech empire from code and ambition. But three screaming five-month-olds? That's a problem money can't solve. He hasn't slept. Hasn't showered. Hasn't stopped failing the three tiny humans who deserve better than an uncle drowning in grief and baby formula.
Enter Corey Winters.
Stork Club's best operative. Professional. Detached. Sent to restore order to chaos—and nothing more.
Except Hendrik isn't the incompetent disaster Corey expected. He's exhausted, yes. Overwhelmed, absolutely. But he's also fiercely determined to be the parent his nieces need, even if he doesn't know how. And when Corey implements color-coded schedules and synchronized nap routines, Hendrik doesn't just notice—he sees him. Like Corey is the answer to every impossible question.
Corey knows the rules. No personal involvement. Fix the problem, then walk away.
But watching Hendrik fumble his way through diaper changes while still running board meetings is doing something dangerous to Corey's carefully guarded heart. When late nights blur into early mornings, when exhaustion strips away every defense—Corey realizes he's not just teaching Hendrik how to be a father.
He's learning what it means to have a home.
The job was supposed to be temporary.
The feelings weren't supposed to happen at all.
And staying?
That's the scariest thing Corey's ever considered.
A cozy MM romance about found family, second chances, and learning that the best families are the ones we choose.
