The Surrogate: A Tale of Two Loves

By Rebekah Dodson

They say the truth will set you free, but in my office, it usually just leads to a hefty co-pay and a prescription for Prozac.

I'm Dr. Lydia Hager, a psychologist who spent twenty years perfecting the art of the "meaningful nod" while my own life flatlined. Between a son off at college and a dog who judges my nightly glass of Merlot, I was dying of terminal boredom. Then I met Sean McCarthy.

Sean is a sexy Irish bartender with a smile that screams bad decisions and a past that's probably illegal. He was supposed to be my one-night escape from the mundane-the key to a life that didn't involve analyzing other people's traumas.

But things got messy. Fast.

My best friend Lincoln just dropped a proposal that feels more like a hostage negotiation than a romance. Now, I'm caught in a twisted triangle where the stakes aren't just my heart-they're Sean's safety.

I have a choice: play it safe with the man who knows my secrets, or descend into the beautiful chaos of the Irish underground to save the man who woke me up.

Is it crazy to risk everything for a bartender? Probably. But then again, I've always said "sane" is just another word for "boring."
