Unexpected Gifts

Life happens...and then life really happens!

Teacher Eli Cartwright has it all figured out -- the career, the reliable boyfriend and the next few dependable decades. Yet life has quite a sense of humor, it seems, since her perfectly ordered existence has been completely upended because Eli is counseling pregnant teens -- but now with an unplanned pregnancy of her own!

Suddenly Eli is single, terrified...and exuberant. And her colleague, Zac Keller, has never been more attracted to her. But can he convince Eli that life sometimes offers more than one unexpected gift at a time?
