Chris Sturniolo Middle Name

Laila Jones has spent eight years building a quiet, beautiful life for herself and her daughter, Malaya.

Laila is ready to avoid him, yell at him, or both. What she doesn’t know is that after his grandfather’s death, Jordan discovered every letter she ever sent—proof that she kept their baby, begged him to come, and raised their daughter without him.
