… risking my heart for my dream. I empty my bank account to buy a one-way ticket to Lover’s Hideaway. A private island owned partly by my ex—Christopher Vanderbilt. I put everything on the line, hoping he still has a soft place in his heart for me, enough to help me save my company—the one that tore us apart. The odds are in my favor. My business proposal seeps out my brain in a drunken haze. I’d forgotten that we feel like this. Raw. Combustible. Destined. But Chris isn’t the man I knew. He’s harder, colder, and with a shadow of hate in his eyes. He demands my hand for his help and I hate wasting my last chance on him. What choice do I have? Either pretend to be his wife for a week or watch my dream die. I accept, praying he never discovers the truth.
