~ Synopsis ~
The
perfect life.
The
perfect marriage.
The
jilted lover.
Their
worlds collide.
Fate
intervenes twelve years later and their paths intersect once again. All three
will question whether the heart is truly capable of dividing and being divided;
each will decide whether it matters who you loved first or who you love last.
Together
they will learn that in the end, there can always only be one.
~ Excerpt ~
“Good evening, everyone. So sorry we're late.”
I turn my head in the direction of her eyes.
“Are you fucking kidding me?” I mutter under my breath.
It's Jesse Cain. I glare at Betty, and she responds by shrugging
her shoulders. I remember that she said she no longer bothers with the seating
arrangements. I’m left with
no choice but to get up from my chair and shake his hand.
“Cain, how are you?” I ask rather hypocritically. I can’t even
stand to be in the same country as him, let alone share a table with this guy.
One at which he sits so close to my wife, no less.
“Ailey,” he says coolly. “This is my fiancée, Rose.”
I offer my hand to her and she shakes it warmly. She's very
pretty, almost beautiful, but certainly not Isabel stunning, at least to
me. She’s quite voluptuous
and her dress leaves little to the imagination. I guess she has to compete for
his attention, given that he is one of the most eligible bachelors in the
country. He’s clearly a crowd drawer at fundraising events like these. I’ll never know why, since he’s such
an arrogant ass. Cain pulls her seat out for her and remains standing. Sure
enough, he walks over to Betty and Isa.
“Betts.” He gives her a hug and offers his hand to Leigh, who
shakes it disinterestedly.
Okay, here it comes.
Wait. No. She’s getting up. Why
is she getting up?
He leans down to give her a hug. “Hi, Isa. Nice to see you.”
She embraces him a little too warmly. The smile on her face as she
says his name slays me. “Hi, Jess.”
Jess?
As soon as Cain takes a seat next to me, I lean over and whisper
in her ear. “It's Jess-e. There's an E at the end.”
She responds by taking my hand, slipping it through the slit of
her dress and resting it on her thigh. If
I stretch my finger out far enough, I’ll be able to touch that part of her that
might get her attention. Out of the blue, I have the urge to take the napkin on
her lap and tie it around her neck to cover up her chest. Sort of like a bib in
a seafood restaurant.
“He looks at you all googly-eyed like that one more time and I'm
going to poke his fucking eyes out,” I whisper, punctuating my words with light
squeezes of her thigh.
She thinks I'm kidding so she laughs.
