The "What if" Guy by Brooke Moss
Autumn Cole after high school broke up with her boyfriend Henry because she was pregnant with another mans baby. She left Fairfield, WA for Seattle and got enrolled in art classes and 12 years later she left there to go back home to tend to her father. The town drunk who had health issues. She brought her son Elliott with her and when he showed up at school she was introduced to one teacher, Henry. Yep the love of her life that she had to let go.
He's as surprised to see here there also, going through a divorce himself. by the time she's left her son in the class she had given Henry a bloody nose as well. What else could go wrong? She had met up with one of her bff's well they broke it off after a few months-she had stopped replying to her letters and calls-she wasn't a good friend.
When her father makes a spectacle of them at Halloween, Mr. T steps in and helps get him home to the couch and has promised to watch out for the bullies at El's school and put a stop to that. She's working at the pharmacy now because she has no other choice.
She's made amends with her BFF also. She spends more time with him and discovers about his past life and what made him come to the town to live in. The surprise holiday meal turns out HOT in many ways...the holiday season is growing on her.
She is devastated to learn of the true nature of all the doctor visits her dad takes when she finds him on the floor in the bathroom and goes with him in the ambulance...
She is able to confide in her friend Holly about her true feeling for Henry as they try to figure out why he runs away after he kisses her..
When she watches Henry leave with the town lady who has it all she goes off on a roll and after watching her friend in the hospital she acts fast, so much time has gone by...
besides sex scenes there is also a birthing that led me to shed some tears, it was so fast paced and serene.
Love that she can do your job and also take care of her career and Layla hires her to do her daughter's bedroom and the town hires her, such an accomplishment!
Also love how she connects with her dad and her son gets lessons from him. Just when things are going right everything goes wrong...
