Keeping Miss Kalila

Book excerpt: With a job that she loves, an adorable senior dog, and a baby she fought hard to conceive on the way, life is going well for thirty-one-year old school teacher Kalila Rayos. That is, until her ex-boyfriend and first love, filmmaker Datu Alvez asks if they could try again. Saying yes shouldn’t be too difficult. After all, she’s still also in love with him and Datu’s efforts to be there for her make her feel she truly has it all. But on top of her worries as a soon-to-be mom, a crisis that hits her school forces her to shift her priorities away from her own desires. Will the one who got away be strong enough to stay, or will their second chance at love crumble and break her heart once more? ** Please note the following content warnings for this book: miscarriage (backstory), casual sexism, and verbal and physical abuse from a parent.
