So when she announces she’s met Mr. Right, Jason is skeptical. When he meets her new boyfriend, handsome professor Paul Everett, he quickly realizes he and Paul have more in common than their connection to his mother. The two men had slept together the previous summer.<br><br>Paul refuses to break things off with Jill, claiming he enjoys being with women and telling Jason their hook-up was a one-time thing that didn’t mean much to him. Unwilling to tell his mother about his past with Paul, Jason stews in silence as he watches his mother and Paul grow closer. At the same time, he finds himself becoming more and more attracted to Paul. When he can’t stand it any longer, Jason makes a pass at his mother’s boyfriend and is surprised his affections aren’t spurned.<br><br>Even though Jason finds himself falling in love with Paul, he knows he’s betraying his mother and he hates himself for it. She’s always been his staunchest ally, and sleeping with her boyfriend abuses the trust between them. Can Jason love a man who’s also deceiving his mother? When he’s forced to choose between Paul and his mother, the decision isn’t as easy as it seems.

Chapter 14

“So, I guess it’s you and me, Jason,” Jared said. “We can walk over together.”

“Fine,” I said with a sigh before he turned on his heel and went back to his office. I really didn’t feel like going to have a beer at some pub near the Kimmel Center, but I agreed to just to get Jared off my back.

Ashley poked her head over the cubicle wall and grinned at me. “Have fun.”

I almost threw my stapler at her. I often wondered if she knew about me and Jared. I suspected she did, but she’d never said anything and I certainly wasn’t going to bring up the subject. And, speaking of Jared, he sent me a text saying that we could leave Maureen’s party around the same time and go to his apartment afterward. “I’ll cook dinner,” he added. I wondered what “dinner” would be tonight. Lentil soup, or some equally disappointing entrée? Hopefully the pub would put out an array of appetizers I could fill up on.
