<\/a>HAPPY FRIDAY!!!! Welp. It\u2019s that time again. My FAVORITE DAY which is Friday!<\/strong>! And today\u2019s work day promises to be calm and peaceful and will allow me to catch up on some fast-approaching deadlines. Just me, my boss, and one of my bestie-colleagues (everyone else is out for the day), and we\u2019ll probably order in, for lunch, indulge in some breakfast coffee and bond while we work. YAY US!! Who says yay for work? Me, especially when it\u2019s peaceful and productive (\u2019cause my job is usually NOT peaceful. LOL! Fast paced, and loaded in deadlines, but one thing\u2019s for sure\u2026 the day is never boring and I barely see the days go by.<\/p>\n

\nSECOND CHANCE ROMANCE!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI had two men, one secret marriage, and a love the law refused to name. Then came the accident.<\/p>\n

When I woke up, Halston Saint Claire was hidden behind his family\u2019s money, lawyers, and lies. Creed Lafontaine was gone. Everyone around me insisted the rings, the vows, the three of us\u2014it was all trauma talking.<\/p>\n

So I did what broken girls with color-coded calendars and trust issues do best. I survived.<\/p>\n

Now I live in Florence, restoring damaged art and pretending the past doesn\u2019t still have its hands on me. Until one forged document drags me back into the Saint Claire world\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
