Synopsis

Sometimes, the best things in life are unplanned.

Kate McCullough has always been the good girl, but one impulsive mistake turns her post-grad plans upside down. The only person keeping her sane? Her bravest friend and biggest supporter, Anthony Marcelli.

Anthony knows loving a McCullough woman comes with challenges, but he’s all in. The problem? He has no idea Kate’s pregnant! Winning her heart is only half the battle—he also has to convince her overprotective father he’s not the enemy.

“Bestselling author, Lydia Michaels, blends a friends-to-lovers romance with an accidental pregnancy and one very protective hero in this swoony love story full of small-town drama!”
