Healing Hearts

I just made a deal with my dream girl.

We’re friends so whats there to worry about?

I’m happy to be the one who picks her up after a bad date. When she needs help at home, I’ll be there–no expectations or questions asked.

She’s the strongest person I know, raising her son after her husband died.

I’m an ex con, with regrets a mile long. Loving her from afar has to be enough for me. I know I don’t deserve her.

But now we’re snowed in together on New Years Eve.

And she just asked me to get her pregnant.

I don’t want to lose her, but how can I say no when it’s all Emily wants?

I think I’m about to make a baby with my best friend.

This is a small town, steamy, best friends to lovers romance that deals with grief/loss and some mention of fertility issues.
