Pumpkin on the Side

Dancy McCall

I'm only in town for six months, so when my hot neighbor proposed a friends-with-benefits arrangement on the down low, it suited me just fine. My super secret something-on-the-side was all fun and games until I peed on a plastic stick and got two pink lines.

Now I have to tell my bootie call he's about to be a baby daddy. Except, in addition to being smexy as hell and the least complicated man on the planet, Ryland Reese has a noble streak ten miles wide.

I already know he'll want to do the right thing, but it's totally for the wrong reasons. Besides, I'm a complete outsider with no chance of fitting in to Ryland's close-knit community.

So what's a girl to do?

One look at Dancy McCall, I was a goner. She's totally out of my league and wary of commitment, so I proposed the least threatening arrangement--FWB--and she agreed. I thought a fling would get the craving for this woman out of my system, but I'm falling harder and deeper every day.

She's out of here in just a few weeks, so the pressure is on to convince her my--our--feelings are a forever, for real thing. It's a huge gamble and the stakes have never been higher, but I think the odds are in my favor.

I proposed this secret relationship for the right reasons, but when an even bigger secret turns into a huge scandal, everything goes wrong.

So what's a guy to do?
