Second Chance Protector: a Friends to Lovers Sweet Romance

<p><strong>My small-town university loves to gossip. I was Emma's short-term ex-boyfriend. Then she quit and left town with a secret.</strong></p>
<p>Emma was every man’s dream.</p>
<p>We became close friends, but she instead fantasized about the Bad Boy on campus, Colin.</p>
<p>He knew she was easy prey.</p>
<p>Now she’s in trouble, and Colin has skipped town on her.</p>
<p>Even though she knows I'll protect her, she's far away, and I'm desperate.</p>
<p>Colin is back, seeking his next victim.</p>
<p>I have to show him that’s a bad idea.</p>
<p>But am I making an even bigger mistake?</p>
<p>No man loves a woman giving birth to another man's baby—right?</p>
