The moment my husband died, I thought my life was over. Left alone at forty-six with my daughter Stacy off at college, time seemed to freeze. Unsure of how to move forward, I watched others go on with their lives, keeping myself carefully tucked away where I wouldn't be forced to accept my new reality. My life fell into further disarray when my landscaper retired suddenly, leaving my pool house apartment empty. When the heater in my beloved pool stopped working in the same week, I was forced to ask for help, and two much younger men came to my rescue. Their presence in my once solitary life finally pushed me out of the bubble I'd placed myself in, and into a steamy journey of self-awakening that showed me life after tragedy didn't have to be done alone. **A stand-alone, female POV only, spicy, taboo romance with an unexpected, but very happy ending loosely inspired by the song Stacy's Mom**.
