  Drew pulled her into his arms. "See, I knew I picked the right girl."

  "Yes, you did. Though, you do realize that we haven't even been on an actual date?"

  Drew laughed, as if the thought had never even dawned on him. "We've been dating ever since you came back into my life. And before that, each time you talked me into doing one of your silly films, I fell more and more in love with you. And if that's not enough, we can date while we're planning the wedding and then for the rest of our lives."

  Epilogue

  Drew

  "Any last guess on what it will be?" Drew asked Kate as they followed the sonographer back to the ultrasound room at the hospital.

  Kate rubbed her belly, which had finally started to show that she was pregnant. She'd been hiding her tummy for months, hating that people thought she was getting fat. But he loved seeing that life was growing inside of her. Their baby was a product of their love.

  "I don't know. Yesterday I was thinking it was a girl. But today I'm leaning more towards a boy."

  Drew grinned, feeling his eyes crinkle at the edges. "It's going to be a boy. I was thinking manly thoughts when he was conceived."

  Kate slapped his arm, but she couldn't keep that adorable smile off her lips. "You are so bad."

  He shrugged. "Just saying. I'm so amazing that I can control something like that."

  She just rolled her eyes. "Yes, you're good at everything. I already know that."

  "I only care that I'm good enough for you, Mrs. My-Screenplay-Is-Going-to-Be-a-Major-Blockbuster-Hit in a few months." He was so proud of Kate for never giving up on her dreams. But he was even happier that she had never given up on him.

  He was also thankful that even though he hadn't given America the finale they'd thought they were getting, he hadn't turned into the most hated man in all of Finding Your Soulmate's history. In fact, his fans all cheered when they found out the news. Apparently, no one had liked Gwen, and they thought she and Dion deserved each other.

  Except, even that hadn't worked out. Just two weeks after the finale aired, he heard Dion had cheated on Gwen and she was going on some other reality TV show in her race for stardom.

  Kate and Drew followed the sonographer into a dimly lit room with a bed and a bunch of machinery.

  The sonographer pointed to the bed. "Just lie down and we'll get started in a moment."

  Drew was so excited to see their little baby, he could barely hold it in.

  A little while later, they were watching a screen on the wall with the most beautiful black-and-white movie he'd ever seen. Their baby wiggled around as the sonographer snapped photos and took measurements.

  "It looks like the baby is measuring right on for its gestation," the sonographer said as she moved the transducer probe along Kate's belly.

  Kate turned her head to smile at Drew, and his chest lightened with relief that everything checked out so far.

  "Do you want to know the baby's gender?"

  "Yes," Kate answered for both of them.

  Drew squeezed Kate's hand as anticipation filled him.

  The screen on the wall shifted as the sonographer tried to get a good view.

  "Is our baby being modest?" Drew joked after a minute.

  Kate laughed. "Like father, like son."

  "Like son?" His heart blipped and he sat up straighter to get a better look. "How do you know that?"

  Kate pointed. "I've seen these before."

  Drew squinted, as if it would help. He didn't know the first thing about ultrasounds.

  And then the sonographer put a little arrow on the screen and typed out the word "boy."

  Drew grinned and leaned closer to Kate's ear. "See, I told you I was thinking manly thoughts."

  Kate just smiled at him, the smile that made him want to give her the world. Her and their baby boy.

  "Do you have any names picked out yet?" the sonographer asked as she wiped the goo from Kate's belly with a towel.

  Kate and Drew both looked at each other before saying in unison, "Aiden."

  She swore off guys. He swore to protect her.

  After a series of cheating ex-boyfriends, Emma goes on a self-prescribed boy cleanse and plans to spend her senior year focused on the important things in life, like deciding on a which college to attend. She has no idea she’s an heiress with a target on her back and boys are the least of her worries.

  Arie thinks his college internship will be easy: pose as a high school senior and protect Emma. He never expected to fall for her.

  Sparks ignite, but danger is near. If Arie can’t keep Emma hidden, her fate will be infinitely worse than falling for the guy she shouldn’t want.”

  A dark Chemistry lab. A fake British accent. It's all fun and games until somebody falls in love.

  When sixteen-year-old, Ashlyn Brooks, runs into a sweet British guy in the dark Chemistry lab, she has no idea she's actually sitting in the pitch black room with her longtime rival, Luke Davenport. She also doesn't know that she's stepped into another one of the football captain's pranks. It isn't long before she's sharing things she's never told anyone, and starting to fall for the mysterious guy with a sexy accent who seems to understand her in a way no one ever has before.

  When Luke's mom dies the summer before his senior year, he turns to pranking Ashlyn to keep his mind off his loss. But the more he gets to know her, the more he regrets using his fake British accent in the first place. Soon Luke is walking the thin line of keeping his lies a secret and wishing he could tell her that the boy she's falling for is really him.

  Sparks are flying between these best friends. Could a practice kiss change everything?

  Seventeen-year-old Eliana Costa has never kissed a guy. Her best guy friend, Jess, is more than willing to help her out. He has plenty of experience, since he finds a new girlfriend every other week. But when a practice kiss brings on feelings Eliana hadn't bargained for, her already messy life is thrown into a new level of chaos.

  Life is already more than she can handle after her dad's disappearance. Eliana worries that if she admits her feelings to Jess, she just might lose her best friend. And right now, a best friend is all she needs. But when another girl tries to date Jess, Eliana is forced to decide if taking a chance on love is worth the risk.
