~ Synopsis ~
My story isn’t a love story
… not the typical kind anyway.
As a lawyer, I’m used to
discovery, but I never saw this one coming.
Every day, River gives me
ten reasons to stay away, and then eleven reasons why I can't. Our relationship
was to remain strictly business, or at least I tried.
Four years of marriage, and
everything with Cole has changed. I never knew two people who lived together
could be so distant. But I’m not ready to give up on him.
One man wants to break me.
The other is just trying to
get even.
Both are lying to me.
***This is a standalone
contemporary romance (though a little unconventional and twisted!)

Excerpt ~
My eyes never leave my guest who’s
dressed in a crisp navy blue suit, white shirt with the top two buttons undone,
and expensive brown leather belt and shoes—the kind Cole works so hard for.
River carries the look with ease.
“I hope I didn’t interrupt,” he says,
sauntering toward one of my guest chairs.
“You’re early.”
He shrugs, relaxing into his seat. “I was
bored, and I’ve noticed you like your coffee, so I thought I could buy you a
cup. It’s the least I can do since you’re going to have to put up with me all
day.”
“Who said you could barge into my
office?”
He smirks. Stupid dimple. “Your secretary was missing so I helped myself.” His
eyes stare into mine—too long and far too intense. “I didn’t mean to interrupt
your phone call with Mr. Mason, by the way.”
“Something tells me you’re not feeling
all that guilty.”
“You’re right, but I did learn something
about you.” His elbow rests on the arm of the chair, index finger brushing his
chiseled jaw.
“What’s that?” I ask, unable to look
away.
“You profess love with indifference.”
My mouth falls open before I realize it.
I quickly recover, searching for my voice. “What do you know about love?”
“Enough,” he says simply.
