Maggie
One wild night to lose myself… instead, I accidentally found myself a baby daddy.
After my ex spent years tearing me down, convincing me I wasn’t enough, the idea of trusting anyone feels impossible. But Lachlan comes into my life and almost makes me believe I’m worth it… and that he’s worth the risk.
He’s so patient and steady, showing up at my door for midnight cravings and morning sickness. Determined to be a part of our child’s life, even if we’re not together.
I’m so tired of being alone, and having someone feels too good to be true.
So when he asks "can we try?" I want to say yes and believe him.
Lachlan
From the first moment I met Maggie, I knew she was one of the good ones.
But it wasn’t until I heard the life-altering news that she was carrying my baby, that I knew I’d support her no matter if we were “together” or not.
I’m all in—for her and the baby. But somewhere along the way, it stopped being about doing the right thing.
I don’t just want to be a part of my child’s life. I want to be part of hers. Not just for nine months. Or eighteen years. I want forever.
And I’ll do whatever it takes to prove that I’m man enough to be what she needs. For both of them.
