When Lucy Chen transfers to Mid-Wilshire, she never expects to come face-to-face with the man she once shared an unforgettable summer with - Tim Bradford. Old sparks resurface, buried feelings ignite, and what starts as tension soon turns into a slow-burn journey of love, laughter, and second chances. Through flirtation, friendship, and the challenges of life in and out of uniform, Tim and Lucy discover that some connections are meant to last forever - no matter how much time has passed.

Lucy never planned to fall for anyone, let alone her boyfriend's best friend. But when Eli walks out the second she finds out she's pregnant, it's Tim Bradford who shows up. Big, broad, brutally protective-and exactly the kind of steady she swore she didn't need. He's not supposed to want her. She's not supposed to crave him. But late nights turn into soft touches, teasing banter turns into stolen kisses, and suddenly, Lucy's falling-hard-for the man who's been there since the moment everything fell apart. He cooks for her. Rubs her feet. Worships every curve of her changing body like it's the most sacred thing he's ever touched. She's carrying another man's baby. But Tim's the one holding her heart. And when the truth about just how many babies she's carrying finally comes out... everything changes.

"From the shock of discovery to the miracle of birth, Lucy and Tim's world changes with every heartbeat. What begins as an unexpected surprise grows into the greatest adventure of their lives. Together, they navigate the ups and downs of pregnancy-morning sickness, doctor's visits, late-night cravings, fears, and hopes-while learning to lean on each other more than ever before. By their side is Violet, Tim's mother, whose warmth and wisdom guide Lucy through the challenges of carrying her first child, filling the painful absence left by Lucy's own parents. As the months unfold, every new milestone-tiny kicks, ultrasounds, cravings, and emotional breakdowns-becomes a reminder that life doesn't have to be perfect to be beautiful. Through laughter, tears, and Violet's steady love, Tim and Lucy discover that family isn't measured by blood or by flawless moments, but by the people who show up, stay, and hold you when the road feels impossible. And when their daughter finally arrives, they realize that this journey wasn't just about becoming parents-it was about becoming a family."
