He Let His Ex Name Their Baby (From Grovel to Redemption #8)

My husband's ex chose our baby's name.

He told me it was settled.

Thirty-two weeks pregnant, I stood at a jewelry counter staring at her father's name engraved on a silver cup. Magnus had approved it. Nobody had asked me.

Then came the godmother book. The nursery she arranged. The message my husband sent my employer announcing I wouldn't be coming back.

I kept asking him to listen.

At his mother's family lunch, I finally learned why he wouldn't.

Magnus married me because he wanted an heir. Once I gave him a child, he intended to leave me and marry her. A house nearby. A generous settlement. Whatever place they decided to let me keep in my son's life.

He thought loving him would make me accept it.

I left my rings beside that silver cup and walked out with our baby still inside me.

Now my husband says he loves me. He wants his wife back, his family together, and another chance at every promise he broke.

I still want him. That's the part that hurts.

But if Magnus wants this marriage, he'll have to face what he did, stand against the people he let replace me, and learn to hear my answer.

Even when it's no.
