This cannot be read as a stand-alone so if you are interested in this story make sure to read the first book "The Football Player's Cheerleader" *"Don't do this," Nick pleaded. "I have to, i can't lose you Nick," i sobbed. "My dad left my mom when she found out she was pregnant." "I'm not your dad," Nick said. He grabbed my face in his hands. "Corazon, i love you and i will love our child." i fell to my knees. He dropped to his knees in front of me. "We can do this. We can raise this child." "I'm so scared." "I'm terrified," Nick said. "I'm terrified to be a dad but if it's with you, i feel like i can do it." he pressed a kiss to my forehead. He leaned his forehead against mine. "But Leia, if you really can't do this, i won't let you do this alone. I'll hold your hand and take care of you. But if any part of you believes we can do this, then let's get out of here and go home." "I want this," i whispered. "I want our baby."* Leia Evans and Nick Torres are now in college at the University of Kentucky with one of their best friend Dana Adams. In the first book, we saw their love bloom and come together, experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions.
