The Incredible Ordinary

Milàn: When I return home after years of avoiding the place, the last thing I expect is to inherit a little brother.
After a chaotic childhood, I’ve built my life around one simple never get tied down. I’m not father material, and raising a thirteen-year-old with a chip on his shoulder and a talent for pushing every one of my buttons sounds like a special kind of hell.
Overnight, my life turns into one long tension headache, and I’m barely keeping it together when an incident at school lands Rory and me squarely in the orbit of Jordan and his son, Theo.
Jordan is everything I’m not. Calm. Collected. Completely in control. The kind of father people look at with barely hidden envy.
Spending time with him isn’t part of the plan. Neither is watching my life slowly start to fall into place.
Bit by bit, I build something resembling a relationship with my brother.
Bit by bit, life becomes… better.
And bit by bit, the friendship between Jordan and me grows into something deeper. The kind of feelings that might just be impossible to ignore.
It’s a bad idea from the start.
I’ve spent my whole life running the moment things start to get complicated.
Jordan knows exactly what it feels like to be left behind.
Getting close to him might be the best thing that’s ever happened to me.
Or the worst mistake we could make.
Because sooner or later we have to decide if we’re brave enough to fight for each other…
