My Review: Deliver Me is a short story about a young girl who gets pregnant after having sex for the first time in the backseat of a car by some jerk.

Jade was a cheerleader who was dating a jock who sort of forced himself on her one night. Once she gets pregnant, her mother disowns her, she loses her scholarship and her reputation goes from school cheerleader to school slut.

After Jade has her baby Luke she leaves him with the owner of the house she’s staying in and goes back to school and work. Jade trusts the woman so one day she leaves baby Luke with her while she goes on a date with Riley and he asks her to marry him but Jade says no, mainly because they don’t know each other that well.

Then later on Luke’s dad wants to meet up so he can see his baby and he tells Jade that he has changed and he to ask Jade to marry him. She keeps the ring on and while at work Riley goes to her lane with paint and supplies and he sees the ring he isn’t happy.

While Jade is at work serving Riley, Dawn comes running in and tells Jade that the owner of the house is trying to sell baby Luke, Riley drives Dawn and Jade back to the house just in time to get her baby before the couple leave with him.
