Love's Hard Choice

Summary

The night before my wedding, Ben informed me he was child-free.

"Summer, if you can accept this, we'll go ahead. If not... better to walk away now."

His words hit me like a bolt of lightning.

But the house was full of family and friends, celebrating our joy, and I was already halfway down the aisle.

How could I walk away now?

I could only choose to leap for love, resolutely marrying him.

Then, on our fifth wedding anniversary, Ben suddenly changed his mind.

"Summer, let's try for a kid through IVF. Consider it my gift to you."
