A small town, surprise pregnancy, hockey romance from bestselling author Stacy Travis

You know what they say—when things start to come together, life throws you a curveball.

Well, in this case…a hockey puck.

Ten years ago, we were college sweethearts. Until Dominick (Ren) Renaldi decided the grass was greener playing pro hockey in Canada.

I moved on—made my mark as a designer. I run two restaurants and an inn at our family winery, Buttercup Hill.

Nothing is missing. Nothing at all.

Then Ren struts into my small town, a reminder of a broken heart I locked in the past.

Okay, yes, this responsible, type A girl could really use a wild night of scorchin’ hot fun, and Ren, with his penetrating eyes and easy charm, is all too happy to deliver—grownup style.

Imagine my surprise when I see a little pink plus sign a few weeks later.

I’m not looking for love, especially with a guy who’s walked away once. And Ren’s serious about his career, so he will walk away. Besides, I’m not the kind of woman who traps a man with a surprise baby.

But when our shared history and a certain little growing bean brings us close again, I discover the real reason Ren left—and why he’s back.

I find myself starting to like my baby daddy and the man he became.

But what if I love him, too?
