meet Baby McKinney.”
    With that, I give everyone a hug and listen to the congratulations and good lucks . As I’m walking out the hotel door, I turn around and address the group, remembering I forgot the most important part. “Look, guys. You can’t tell anyone about what’s going on. That means don’t breathe a word to Colin’s parents, Aiden, or anyone else. He deserves to hear this news from me first. Okay?”
    The group nods their heads in a collective understanding. I pray that they’ll keep their word, or the State of Texas might be raising Baby McKinney.
    Carter is waiting for us in Brad’s Range Rover. Miguel sits in the passenger seat while Brad and I crawl into the back. We take the back exit out of the hotel’s parking garage. Traffic is at a standstill. I let out a frustrated sigh. I forgot that Downtown had been closed for the victory parade.
    Just as I’m about to panic in epic fashion, another contraction doubles me over. I grip the door handle and clutch my stomach. This is excruciating. There’s no way on God’s green earth that I’m doing natural childbirth. As soon as I get to the hospital, I want an epidural—STAT!
    “Brad, call Doctor Starr and tell her that I want an epidural waiting for me. Tell her we’re stuck in Downtown traffic, and my contractions are regular and seven minutes apart. Get her opinion on not telling Colin,” I bark.
    Brad quickly does as I ask, and I listen to a lot of his one-word answers or agreements. When he hangs up, he says, “She thinks that you’re fine waiting to tell Colin. You can get an epidural as long as you’re far enough along. She’s at the hospital, and is waiting for you.”
    I look outside the windows of the car, and see nothing but people. We’re not moving. This might as well be Armageddon.

    Seven months earlier …
     
    “Bartender, another round,” Rachael slurs.
    Juan Carlo’s beautiful, full lips spread into a sexy little smirk. “ Mis Amores , do you really think another round is a good idea?” he asks in his broken English. He shakes his head, and begins mixing us our drinks before he hears the answer to his question.
    Rachael laughs. “It’s our last day in Cabo. We’re not giving in until the sun comes up.”
    Rachael and I’ve been in Cabo for the last three days. She happened to call when I’d started my period—again. She and Aiden were having issues, and on top of that, she’d been worked to her breaking point. We decided that we needed a girl’s trip, just some time to decompress, relax, and reconnect again. Two days later, I met her at the airport in Cabo.
    It’s almost embarrassing to admit, but this has been the longest that I’ve been away from Colin since the week we spent separated between our reunion in Los Angeles and him coming to stay with me in Houston. I’ve missed him terribly, but Rachael and I needed this vacation together.
    We’ve grown apart since Colin and I married. I think that I depend on him now for things that I used to only need from Rachael. Also, our fertility problems have been like an albatross around our necks. No one knows. Colin feels like this is a very personal issue, and not something that we should broadcast to our family. I believe there is something in his head that makes him feel like less of a man because I’m not pregnant. It’s not like he can help having Celiac Disease. Not sharing such a huge part of our lives has been difficult; however, I’ve respected Colin’s wishes to keep it just between us.
    This trip has been a chance for Rachael and me to find our groove again. The first two days we were here, Rachael was still in work mode. Her phone was glued to her ear, putting out mini fires. Finally, this morning, she turned it off. “Today’s our last day in paradise, and I’m off the clock.”
    We carry our drinks to the sun-loungers near the pool. The more I drink, the looser my lips become. I think they’re finally
