*Loosely based on the 2017 song 'River' by Eminem and Ed Sheeran* After being with Marshall for a little over a year, Sophia found out she was pregnant in March of 2018. Thrilled with the prospect of being a mother, Soph can't wait to tell Marshall but what happens when he doesn't share her enthusiasm? We follow the lives of both single mother Sophia and her young daughter and the absent father that is Marshall. When Marshall comes knocking on his daughters fifth birthday, having had no contact with the pair since Sophia's pregnancy reveal, aside from a letter she'd sent to him, how will the two parents deal with the prospect of co-parenting. Will Marshall be able to love Ava the way he does his other daughters or will too much time have passed? Will Soph be able to bury her hatred for Marshall and remain civil or will the tension that Marshall's absense has caused bring too much pain for the family? *This is a work of fiction, it does not reflect directly on any of the persons in the book.
