Baby, It’s Christmas by Chloe Fischer

Neve:
God, he hurt me so bad.
Who walks out on someone after taking their virginity, and professing their love for her?
Who walks out on someone after proposing?
And who the hell, walks back in, 7 years later, rich as god and famous?

I know we were young – high school seems like forever ago. But still. Who does that?

I don’t care what his reasons were – I can’t, won’t, forgive him.
Because the other thing he walked out on, the thing he doesn’t even know about, is his daughter. And I just can’t take that chance again.
Christmas is the time for miracles to happen, but not this miracle.

Connor:
Goddamnit, like I didn’t have enough guilt and pain for her leaving her already, now I find out that I left her alone. And pregnant.

What the actual hell am I going to do?

She’ll never be able to understand why I left – and I can never tell her. Her family was perfect. She can’t possibly understand secrets like this.

And now it turns out we have a daughter?
How can I drag both of them to my level? To my side of the tracks?

All I know, is that I’ll do whatever it takes to be the man they need.

Whatever. It. Takes.

I promise, this will be the most magical Christmas of them all.
