Curveball by AK Landow

RIPLEY
I’ve loved my best friend’s brother from the shadows since I was a kid…until I grew up and he finally noticed me. I promised him all my firsts and that’s what I gave him.
We both moved on but ended up in the same city years later, with him playing professional baseball and me playing professional softball.
I was in a huge bind and he helped me…by marrying me.
It was our secret…until I messed things up.

QUINCY
I vowed never to get married and have kids…until my sister’s sexy best friend needed help.
It wasn’t all bad. A no-strings-attached marriage. A secret relationship.
But she caught feelings, so I did the only thing I could…I walked away.
Years later she’s back in my life. The heat hasn’t simmered, but I still can’t give her what she wants. Can I?
I’m starting to wonder if I want more…until she drops a bomb on me.
The nine-month kind of bomb.
