On the WATTYS 2017 SHORTLIST and Featured in COSMOPOLITAN!!! A Wattpad featured story with LOTS OF STEAM! A new life, new friendships, new love... and a secret that may destroy all three. Emmie Marsden's past is a closed book locked in a secure vault. Alone in a new town and two months pregnant with the child of a man she wants nothing more to do with, she is attempting to start her life over again. When she meets the handsome owner of a successful robotics company, she decides to embrace her new life by having a one-night stand with him. Recently betrayed by his money-hungry fiancée, Ryker James isn't looking for anything more permanent than Emmie is. They make a deal: Sex without entanglement. This agreement works at first, but as their one-night stand turns into a month of nights, Emmie realizes she wants to tell Ryker the truth; she can't keep her baby a secret forever, after all. Will telling Ryker of her shrouded past destroy the life they'd begun to build together? ***Note: This story will include adults engaging in fun, adult sexy times. Each scene of this nature will be noted so that delicate readers can skip over it and indelicate readers can dive in with gusto. Enjoy!

My mom tells me to never think about it but how can I not when it's right there infront of me. My dad tells me to forget about it but how can I when it's a part of me. My brother calls it cool and my sister says let it be. They only start understanding though is when their chosen husbands for me...never reply back. Until a quirky, clumsy and not to mention handsome Asher comes along....but in the end we all know, no man wants a woman with a left foot missing.... #thebigmuslimwriterscontest2016 Currently under editing***
