It's been five years since I found my family. Not my bio-family—my found family of friends. I love them to pieces, but lately they aren’t enough. I want a baby. All my friends have family units with cuddly babies, and I want that too. But I turn thirty-five in less than a month. Clock’s ticking, so I’ve got to hustle.

Manic, though, is different from the other men.

Find the one you can’t live without.” I’ve looked for the One ever since, but she never appeared.

My innocence turned jaded. Our families declared war. All that remained was hate. But Calder was raised by wolves. The rules didn’t apply. I was his until he said otherwise—for better or for worse.

It’s not easy being a woman working in a male dominated field. Add in the fact that my uncle owns the baseball team I work for, and proving I belong here is a constant battle. Dating a player was never an option. Not if I wanted to keep a shred of dignity and respect. Then Ronan Sinclair sits down next to me in first class with his alluring blue eyes and hard-to-resist dimples. To say nothing of his kindness and charm, or his determination to convince me that a steamy vacation fling is what we both need.

I’ve spent the last year simply trying to survive but the massive amount of debt to my name and a bar on the brink of collapse, I’m quickly running out of options. The last thing I expect is to be offered an out by Sunstone Ridge's most eligible bachelor. Roman Knight is small-town royalty. Rich. Powerful. Untouchable. And as desperate as I am. He needs a wife, and I need money, what could possibly go wrong by making a deal to marry the cowboy with his own reasons to never fall in love?

I fell for your lies, and you sucked me into your twisted game. You made me crave your taste, hungered for your full attention. I gave you everything, only for you to go ghost.

My best friend’s little sister, Stella.

Money. Children. Career. The white picket fence. My life was perfect—or so I thought. That illusion came crashing down the moment I caught my husband balls deep in his secretary. The fool forgot I was the general counsel of his beloved company, and I'd had the sudden realisation that it was time to return to work. Our ironclad prenup had a two-month countdown, forcing my hand to stay in the farce I now called my marriage. Plans were made, and retribution was upon us. If only I'd prepared for my childhood best friend, who soon became my comfort and closest confidante. 

I used to think my future in pro hockey, my motorcycle between my thighs, and my friends were all I needed. But she changed all that. She thinks she’s above it all. She thinks she can move into my father’s house with her gold-digging mother. She thinks she can do no wrong, but I saw her that night. Now I’m consumed by revenge. And my two best friends and I will be the ones to punish her. I won’t think about how soft her lips look or the way she whispers those pretty little lies. My new stepsister ruined my life. And now we’re determined to ruin her.

I didn’t plan to be a runaway bride. But, standing in the church wearing white and borrowed blue, I realized I didn’t have a choice. I had to start over. Even if it meant living—and working—a stone’s throw from the man who doesn’t know he broke my heart a decade ago. So I stuffed my tulle and tears behind the wheel of a borrowed car, mascara tracking down my cheeks as I made the drive to Willow Bend, Wyoming. I thought I could handle having Tobias in my life again. Believed after everything I’d gone through, the last thing I’d want is a man’s attention.
