When college football star Damon Diamond shows up to surprise his girlfriend at graduation, he's the one who ends up blindsided. Ainsley is pregnant. Seven months pregnant. And he had no idea. Damon should be furious. Instead, after the shock wears off, all he can think about is her. Their daughter. Their future. Because the truth is, Ainsley didn't keep the pregnancy from him out of fear-she did it out of love.
She knew Damon would sacrifice everything for her and the baby, including the football career he'd spent his entire life working toward. So, she made the impossible choice to wait and tell him once the season was over. Now they're racing toward a future neither of them expected to happen so soon-balancing a long-distance relationship, football playoffs, new careers, and the overwhelming reality of becoming parents while still figuring out adulthood themselves. Somewhere between them choosing baby names, designing their forever home, and falling even harder for each other, Damon realizes something undeniable. Some loves aren't temporary.
Some loves are forever. And theirs has always been leading to that someday.
