PREVIEW
“Let’s just back this up for a minute, Miss Thang. First you marry a loser, stop going to college and drop everything to support his dreams,” Cynthia started, her right forefinger ticking off points on her left hand as she explained things from her point of view. “Then you get pregnant, which he’s not exactly happy about. And when you have the baby and decide you want to become a full-time mom, said knucklehead up and leaves you for another woman. Then, you meet Mr. Wonderful – present husband number two, Tristan. He’s handsome, rich and rescues you from idiot husband number one who didn’t want to pay squat in child support for his own flesh and blood – never mind alimony. Idiot husband number one left you broke, on the verge of eviction and almost homeless. Present husband number two literally lays the world at your feet, giving you everything you could possibly want and a financial freedom many would kill for. If I were him, I’d be a bit peeved too! … Besides honey, powerful men like Tristan don’t like for things in their world to change -- unless they’re the ones doing the changing,” Cynthia finished.
###
Their marriage had started out as a simple business arrangement. She was a struggling single mom about to do battle with her scheming, soon-to-be ex-husband -- who happened to be an attorney – over child support and alimony.
Tristan’s part of the bargain entailed helping her secure custody of her daughter and providing a financially secure future so she’d never have to worry about money again. In return, she would act as the perfect barrier between him and every gold-digging, wannabe-married female he encountered.
“But why marriage?" she'd asked when he proposed out of the blue. "And why me? If you wanted a wife, you could find one with far less baggage,” Lisa continued, knowing she shouldn’t be looking a gift horse in the mouth.
“You’re right. I probably could. But who else could I propose to in this manner? We’re starting out under no illusions … most women want the romance of it all. I told you, I’m not cut out for that. And to be blunt, I’m attracted to you. I can’t wait to have the right to have you in my bed. But I want you to come to me willingly,” he said, lowering his head to brush his lips across hers lightly again.
###
Their marriage/business arrangement had morphed into a fairy tale -- one full of love, laughter and passion no romance novel could capture.
But was the fairy tale about to come to an end? And would her greatest fear – not being able to take care of her daughter – come true after all? If her husband’s reaction to her latest announcement was anything to go by, she was closer to living that nightmare than she’d like to admit. Was she risking it all for something she shouldn't want -- or need -- in the first place?
