Brandon, I’m amazed by your brilliance and kindness.

I’m so very proud of you. Jacob, I can’t wait to play the games you’re working so hard to create. Tori, I love to watch you dance. From Twinkle to Transformation to It Is Done you have so many stories to tell.

Babe, my guy, for being my best friend and

partner in crime. I love you.

To Michelle Spall for helping me see a new way

to define home. I’m so grateful for your friendship and am looking forward to many more dance mom antics together.

Chapter One

“Why can’t I think of one word to say to him?” Meg Anderson looked down at her sleeping angel, trying to psych herself up for the conversation that needed to take place with the baby’s father.

“You’re the best child advocate in Texas, Meg. The words will come.” Meg’s best friend and business partner, Stephanie Gable, walked over and ran her finger along two-month-old Aubrey’s cheek.

“He deserves to know about her, right?” Meg already knew the answer, but she asked anyway. She’d do just about anything to gain a few more minutes of courage before walking out the door.

“He does.” Stephanie’s sympathetic tone struck a chord.

“I’m being totally unfair to her by keeping her from her father.” Tears burned the backs of Meg’s eyes.

“That’s right. If you can’t do it for yourself, think of Aubrey.” Stephanie seemed to be catching on. “It’ll work out.”

“What if he rejects her?” Meg tamped down the panic causing her heart to gallop.

“Then it’s his loss.” Stephanie didn’t hesitate.

Meg made eyes at her friend. “You’re absolutely right.”

“What’s the worst he can say?” Stephanie shot her what was supposed to be a nerve-fortifying look.
