I’d continually dreamed of my wedding day. But not like this. Not searching into the eyes of the person who betrayed me.
But while my nephew’s guardianship is contested, I determine I’ll do whatever it takes to maintain him in Rose Hill. Even if it means marrying the enemy.
Rhys Dupris.
A man who’s secretive, broody, and absolutely infuriating. A guy whose work takes him away for weeks on cease and brings him returned blanketed in mysterious bruises—ones he gained’t talk approximately. In truth, we barely communicate at all.
Which could be fine, except whilst he’s no longer speakme, he’s staring. And the way he looks at me is borderline indecent.
The tension between us has always been palpable. But dwelling below the same roof is a dangerous temptation.
I swore I might by no means forgive him. But that turned into before I knew the person at the back of the mask. The person who’s fierce and shielding. The person who’s mild and affected person. The one who shows up for us whilst we want him maximum.
He’s never who I concept he turned into.
And that makes hating my husband so much harder… and loving him only a little too clean.
