    About this ebook

    What if your imaginary boyfriend got you pregnant--for real?

    Seventeen-year old Manon knows she’s not pregnant. After all, she’s never had sex.

    Except she is actually pregnant.

    Nobody’s roofied her. And probably there isn’t a pervert on the loose hypodermically impregnating virgins. Manon’s going to have to treat the whole thing as an act of God. Either that or an alien abduction. She can’t decide which is more preposterous.

    Whatever's happened, Manon may just as well give up her struggle to not be the weird girl at school. And she may as well give up on Elias, the mysterious boy who haunts her dreams.

    Except it turns out Elias knows Manon's fantasies about him. In detail.

    Like he's been inside her head while she's having them. . .

      My wife, Gin, once knocked gently on my head, as if it were a door. “Hello,” she kept saying. “Hello. Who’s in there?” She and our therapist, Dr. Sherby, laughed a little about this, so I did, too. What fun. Keep knocking on my head like that, like i
