Keep Breathing Rita Michaels

Fifteen-year-old Bri is a sophomore who has her future planned out: No teen sex in school, good grades, scholarship, college or university, financial independence, then marriage. Hours to her sixteenth birthday, after a searing, unexplainable pain, her dreams, and aspirations come tumbling down when she tests and finds out she's pregnant without the knowledge of ever consenting to sex. She hadn't even experienced her first period, yet. When she confronts her boyfriend Hunter, she's in for a surprise when he not only denies ever having sex with her but has a deadly secret that would shatter her forever. Faced with reality and a new perspective of life, Bri must fight to find out what happened to her the day she visited Hunter, what secret he holds that could rip her apart, face her fears of becoming a single, working mom, and maybe get to the end of her list of things to achieve- marriage.
