    Summary

    Theo pointed at the photograph in Buck's hands. "Who's he?"

    The question left a strange hollow feeling in Buck's chest. He looked back at the photo. The photo of someone so important in Buck's life but someone Theo had never met and never would.

    Theo had never heard Bobby's laugh. Never seen him manning the barbeque at a 118 family get together. Never stolen baked goods cooling on the counter while Bobby pretended not to notice.

    "Is he your daddy?" Theo asked with an innocence only kids could have.

    Buck had no intentions of ever letting Margaret or Philip Buckley anywhere near Theo. Growing up feeling like he was never enough, he didn't want to give them a chance to ever make Theo feel a fraction of how he felt.

    Buck heard himself answer before he had fully thought it through.

    "Yeah," His voice was quiet as he smiled sadly at the photo. "Yeah, buddy. That's my dad."

    OR

    A white lie, a misunderstanding, and a kidnapping perpetrated by a dead man lead to an unexpected reunion.

    Summary

    Evan is born under a bad sign.

    Margaret won’t let herself believe it, but Philip knows. He sees it. A red splotch on his tiny, chubby leg that the nurses can’t wipe away. Younger than his soulmate, then, and already baring marks when he’s not even a few hours old. A bruise, probably, innocent enough on any other child. But Evan is not just any child.

    Of course, he tries to keep his hopes up, his faith. God works in mysterious ways and maybe this is what Margaret says it is, a good sign, a show of the infant’s resilience. That’s what they need from him, after all, resilience. God is good and God is kind and He would not give Philip and Margaret, devout and God-fearing people, a defective child.

    Summary

    Southern California is where Buck has spent the most time since leaving Pennsylvania. Of all the places he’s lived and worked over the last few years, this place is where he decided to stay. It’s why he picked LAFD: to put down some roots. It’s warm, has the ocean, and it’s the opposite coast of his parents. So if he’s going to be here for a while, he thinks he’ll need to make an effort to let people in.
