Delayed Penalty by Lexi James
Avery
My entire life I’ve always had one dream: become a teacher. It started when I was in third grade and had a teacher I adored who taught me to read, when all the teachers before her had given up on me.
The day I stepped foot on my college campus to tour it was also the day I was introduced to my second dream. Harris Danielson. After we met that day, we talked almost every single day and we spent the next two years falling in love. Until it was time for him to go to the NHL and he broke my heart without even speaking a word.
Now I’m a teacher yet I still feel like my life is empty, like I’m trapped, and the thing caging me in sits on my ring finger, a constant reminder that I don’t really have another choice.
Until I do something crazy and end up staring down at a test with two pink lines.
How do you tell the man you used to be in love with that you’re about to have a baby…together.
Worse? How do you keep your heart protected when you’re seeing the only thing you’ve ever wanted come together, only it’s not what it seems.
Harris
Hockey and my family have always been the two constants in my life. The two things that I knew would always be there on the good days and the bad days. Until I met Avery. Avery became the third constant in my life, fitting in so effortlessly that it felt like she’d always be there.
Until she left.
After that I was left with a hole in my heart, a gap that no one could fill, a fact that I’ve learned over the years until eventually I just stopped trying. Until one day I run into her again and it’s like I’m transported back six years ago, her smile and laugh enough to turn a bad day around.
But then I see the ring on her finger and am reminded that she’s not mine anymore.
But after a night out, life is forever changed when she tells me she’s pregnant. Now the stakes are higher than ever, can I keep the girl, finally getting the family I’ve dreamed about for years?
All I know is I’m willing to do whatever it takes to keep them, both of them.
