Pregnant in Pennsylvania

When you're from a place like Clayton, PA, you either leave as soon as you can, or you never leave. We can't even say we're a one-stoplight town, because we don't have a stoplight, just a traffic circle on a minor local highway. Here in Clayton, everyone knows everyone, and gossip and rumors are a way of life.So, when my high school sweetheart leaves our son and me for a woman in another state, it's the talk of the town for months, if not years. Even my motor-mouthed, wild child of a best friend, Cora, can't rustle up enough trouble to keep my name off their lips for more than a week or two. So, when I meet a handsome, single man not from Clayton, I assume he's just passing through. It was just supposed to be a night of fun with my BFF before school starts-one last hurrah before lesson plans and homework and packing lunches and school pickup lines take over everything. It wasn't supposed to lead to an intense, sizzling connection-an attraction which despite my most vehement denials goes far beyond the physical.The real question now is...will it end in another heartbreak for me and my son, or could it become a Happily Ever After?
