The first time I met Hudson Rothschild was at a wedding. I’d received an unexpected invitation to one of the swankiest venues in the city. Hudson was a groomsman and quite possibly the most gorgeous man I’d ever laid eyes on. He asked me to dance, and our chemistry was off the charts.

Though the fun came to a screeching halt when Hudson figured out I wasn’t who I’d said I was.

I first met Tristan Miles at a meeting where he was trying to take over my late husband’s company. He was powerful, arrogant, and infuriatingly gorgeous, and I hated him with every cell in my body. In the shock of the century, he called me three days later and asked me on a date. I would rather die than date a man like him - though I do have to admit it was good for the ego. Turning him down was the highlight of my year.

We were supposed to run away after high school graduation. When she didn't show up at our meeting place, I gathered my courage and went after her. It was a mistake. I left bloodied and bruised.

And when my memories got the best of me, I went looking. Put all my effort behind the search.

The first time I saw him my heart ran away. No matter that Cade was completely off-limits. Or that he told me to stay out of his way. The heart wants what it wants. And mine had bound itself to him. My father stood between us, as I knew he would. As he stood between me and any sort of happiness. No matter how hard I wished for a new life... The invisible walls of his cage were harder. I thought I needed a hero. Someone to break me out, to grant me the freedom I dreamed of. Cade Warren is no hero. But maybe it takes a villain to save a girl like me.
