BOOK EXCERPT

Excerpt 7

She had hoped to be married. To raise a family.

Instead, she was living in a townhouse owned by her baby’s daddy while she started over again. She couldn’t live off his charity forever. She needed a job. A job when the hospitality industry struggled to restart after a few tough years. The week between Christmas and New Year’s was a terrible time to look.

When she stood, the tightness in her chest started. Her eyes widened as her breathing morphed into wheezing. Lightheadedness overwhelmed her, and she fell to her knees, the coolness of the tile floor seeping through her pants. As she reached for her purse on the bar, it crashed to the floor, littering its contents everywhere. She found her phone and tapped the picture of Kyle’s face. She couldn’t draw in a breath of air. Then she sat on her legs and bent forward to keep from passing out. Her heart raced frantic ally.

“Kelly?”

“Need.” Gulp of air. “Help.”

“Is it happening?”

“Yes.”

“I’ll send someone right away.”

The line went dead. Her vision swam as her lungs constricted. Please God.
