Both times she’d been disappointed. She’d be damned if her baby went through that.
She could understand why her mother had welcomed her father back each time. He was so charming, endearing and handsome, how could a woman resist?
If she’d been smart, she’d have recognized the same traits in Ben up front, before she’d fallen for him. But she’d been as bad as a besotted schoolgirl with her first crush. Willing to believe she could actually have that fairytale happily-ever-after end to her story.
Hadn’t her mother proven that wasn’t the case?
And her sister Emily had suffered through a divorce, also proving the same.
Was it fate for Ava to fall into the same trap?
With nowhere else to go, Ava headed back to her sister’s house. Maybe she’d pack her bags and head for a hotel. Or she could keep driving until she made it to California. She’d always wanted to visit San Francisco and never seemed to have time to get away from the Kenner County Crime Unit. With a month to go before the baby was due and out of work, by doctor’s orders, she had plenty of time now.
Yeah, like she’d drive across the state eight months pregnant with no plan, no place to stay and no desire to be alone.
She sat at a stoplight, her foot resting on the brake, thinking she should take the easy route, give in and let Ben take care of her…
The light turned green, her foot fell hard to the accelerator and she shot forward. What was she thinking? Had she become her mother?
When she turned onto the suburban street her sister lived on, she coasted into the driveway and switched the engine off. Tired beyond belief, she could barely stand the thought of packing and leaving. Maybe she’d just go in, take a shower and climb into bed. Tomorrow was another day. Her troubles could wait.
