Stowaway Whirlwind
(2024)(The second book in the Big Boys of Berenson Trucking series)
A novel by May Alder
A woman in need of safe passage.
Hitchhiking from Nevada to Texas on my own at nineteen years old and nearly nine months pregnant to reunite with my dad is terrifying, especially after being attacked by a man who wants me to pay for my ride—and not with money. I barely manage to fight him off when he gets spooked after an eighteen-wheeler pulls into the truck stop parking lot, and he takes off with half of my luggage in the back seat.
Freezing cold, out of money, and scared of being attacked again, I watch and wait for the truck driver to go into the convenience store, then sneak inside his unlocked eighteen-wheeler. For the first time in a week, I feel a sliver of safety and curl up into a small ball, hoping the driver won’t find me hiding behind his seat when he comes back.
A trucker who vows to help her.
I confront the person who broke into my truck, and the burn that’s been building in my chest for the last few days finally eases when I realize it’s a young woman—a heavily pregnant young woman—who needs safe passage to my home state of Texas. Angry at her father for making his daughter hitchhike alone across four states in her condition, I vow to take care of her until they’re reunited.
Except, as soon as we get to Texas, I find out she’s been hiding her labor contractions, and there’s no time to take her to her dad’s apartment. At the hospital, she begs me to stay, afraid of giving birth all alone, and neither of us corrects the staff who think I’m the baby’s father. After helping her throughout her labor and watching her give birth, it’s a battle to remind myself…
She is not my woman.
Her daughter is not my baby.
But if I have my way, they will be.
Stowaway Whirlwind is the 2nd book in the Big Boys of Berenson Trucking series but can be read as a standalone. Stowaway Whirlwind is a full-length, spicy, age-gap romance. Please read the Author’s Note at the beginning of the book before proceeding. Happily ever after guaranteed.
Genre: Romance
