For Kelly, marrying her best friend, Pierce, was a dream; he was her first love and meant everything to her. The problem was that she knew deep down his heart was not entirely with her. It belonged to Lexi Gilbert, the woman he could never forget, even after his arranged marriage with Kelly. After three years of marriage, Kelly’s world crumbles as Pierce requests a divorce when Lexi returns.
This made Kelly realise that she was just a stand in for the woman he truly loved. To make things more difficult, she is also pregnant. She decides to let Pierce go as it is making her miserable, but the problem is that Pierce can not let her go. To make matters worse, Kelly’s stepbrother enters the fray and demands Kelly be his. Now she is caught in a dangerous love triangle where she must decide: comfort, passion, or freedom?

Kelly's POV
Was it a blessing to marry your best friend?
I was not very sure what Pierce thought, but marrying him was a dream come true for me. And now, what was more exciting, we would welcome our first child.
“It’s a good thing you’re cautious. You could’ve lost your baby, Miss Monroe.” The GYN told me seriously as she could see the shock in my eyes.
I subconsciously touched my belly, and still couldn't believe a baby was lying there. Had I heard it right? I was pregnant? I was pregnant with a baby for Pierce! My best friend and my first crush!
On the way out of the hospital, I couldn’t wait to tell Pierce about our baby. I wondered what his reaction would be. Would he scream in happiness? Would he kiss me and all? God! I couldn’t contain my happiness.
I cupped my red face as I fantasized. But the moment I felt the cold from the simple ring on my finger, my wildly beating heart calmed down. I almost forgot that Pierce wasn't the type to be keen on having children, especially when our marriage was arranged by his family.
Pierce was a complete gentleman, both as a friend and a husband. Every time we had sex, he was considerate but cautious, saying there was no need to add extra shackles when we were not ready.
This baby, in a way, was out of plan.
My mind was becoming restless as I sat in my car. Would this be good news for him? What if Pierce was still not ready for the baby?
