“What do you ‘have to do’? Do you want me to have an abortion?” Garrett looked at her quietly and suddenly broke into a wide grin.

He hadn’t told Laney that on the way here, he had already decided on the names of the children.

“Since you haven’t decided yet, why don’t you come home with me first? Let’s take baby steps.
