He's the golden quarterback of Nolan U Football. His life is perfect. His future is set… until he finds out his high school sweetheart secretly had a baby girl… his baby girl.

I'm a father. Holy f**k, I'm a father. How could she not tell me this? Over three years ago, she vanished from my life. I came back for her, ready to patch things up between us and she ghosted me. Now she's standing there gaping at me and all I can do is stare at the little girl on her hip—the one who looks exactly my sister did at that age. The one who's so obviously mine.

"Sienna." I breathe her name. She still looks amazing and I'm flooded by memories of our time together—every kiss, every smile, every touch, laugh and taste comes back to me with crystal clarity.

"Nope." She shakes her head, spinning on her heel and running away.

I'm frozen, watching her take off with my daughter and still trying to wrap my head around all this. For a second, I wonder if I was just seeing things but—

Sh*t, I'm losing her all over again.

I start running, trying to track her down, but she's vanished once more.

But not forever.

This time I won't stop looking.

This time I'm going to find her and tell her that breaking us up is my biggest regret.

This time I'm going to win her back for keeps...
