It was supposed to be a one night stand to help me get over my ex. But then a positive pregnancy test changes everything…
When I hooked up with a gorgeous stranger, I'd intended to enjoy some no-strings fun to get myself out of a funk. I didn't even bother to exchange names. But when I end up pregnant, all of my plans go out the window.
Two trimesters-and zero luck finding the baby daddy-later, I run into my mystery man at a childhood friend's wedding. Tattoo artist Mercy Caruso is even hotter than I remembered, and he promises to stand by me every step of the way. He's kind, reliable, and almost too good to be true.
When complications arise with the pregnancy, Mercy and I decide to live together until the baby arrives. Our chemistry rekindles, and my feelings for him grow every day. But Mercy has a secret, and when it comes to light, will our fledgling relationship survive?
