A Baby with the Captain

Cheryl Cook was supposed to be worrying about biology class, rent, and surviving college on coffee, crackers, and spite.She was not supposed to be staring at two pink lines in a campus bathroom.And she definitely was not supposed to tell Kurt Fisher-the Calder Wolves' hockey captain, Number Sixteen, and the one-night mistake she has not stopped thinking about-that her life just changed because of him.Kurt is used to pressure. Coaches, scouts, teammates, expectations-he knows how to stay steady when everyone is watching. But Cheryl is not a game situation he can control, and this baby is not a problem he can fix by being useful.Cheryl does not want to be rescued. She does not want to become campus gossip. She does not want her mother's fears, Kurt's father's plans, or the whole rink deciding what her future should look like before she does.But Kurt keeps showing up.At the clinic. Outside the library. In the cold. In the quiet. With the kind of patience that makes Cheryl furious, the kind of desire that makes her forget how to breathe, and the kind of love that asks instead of takes.One night made a baby.Now Cheryl and Kurt have to decide whether two pink lines are the end of who they were-or the beginning of something neither of them planned.A Baby with the Captain is a contemporary new adult hockey romance with an accidental pregnancy, a college hockey captain, one-night-stand consequences, public gossip, emotional heat, found-family support, and a hard-earned happily-for-now.
