Sara's POV
New York
End of May
13th week of pregnancy

Anne-Marie's subtle nod showed me I did excellently. I had them in my palm and could steer them in the direction I wanted.
Power. Beauty. Elegance.
This is what they want.

Michael had loved the dress with its modest high cut but had sounded stricken when he noticed it cupped my breasts. I stifled a smile as I thought back to our text exchange.
