Dating. My wife was dating. She wanted more kids, even though the doctor said it could kill her, so I left. Now she’s dating. I saw her. With that other guy. He put his hands on her.
On my wife.
He was going to touch her. Love her. Make her laugh. Risk her life.
Hell. No.
She was still mine.

I’ve only ever loved one man. One gorgeous, maddening, wonderful man. I still loved my husband, but he walked out. He couldn’t fix me, couldn’t change my mind, so he asked for a divorce and moved out. I had no reason to make him stay. We weren’t the same people we used to be.
But I still wanted more kids. I wanted someone to share my life with. Online dating sounded better than picking up single dads in the pickup line. Joke was on me, though. The one person I liked talking to was the one person I was trying to forget. My husband.
USA TODAY Bestselling Author Mary E Thompson spent most of her childhood wishing she had a few less curves. She hid in the pages of books because her favorite characters never cared what size her clothes were. Now, neither does Mary, and she writes stories that celebrate women like her. Real women who have curves, chase dreams, and find love, because we should all be happy, no matter our dress size.
Mary spends her non-writing time with her husband and two kids, watching too much TV, cheering for her hometown football team (Go Bills!), and hiding chocolate from her family.
