A nightclub collision. A daft decision. A heartbeat caught between two strangers who can barely catch their breath. Told in a pulse of beat-poetry, barbed humour and bruising honesty, Scott and Jess ricochet through tests, scans, scares and the kind of arguments you only have when everything matters. They're not a couple and this isnae a love story or a fairy tale. Just two people trying to step into a story neither of them feels ready for. Funny, fierce and painfully human, Un-Expecting explores the messy reality of un-planned pregnancy and the identity of parenthood in today's world.
