    About this ebook

    When Lyle Cummings is left standing at the altar on his wedding day, all of his carefully composed plans for the future come crashing down around him. The pragmatic surgeon is left questioning his well-ordered existence and wondering if there might be more to life than the achievements of wealth and career. 
    When he meets fiery lounge singer Katrina Giordano, his mundane life is turned upside down. In her, he finds everything his life has been lacking. With her, he will learn that what he thought was love really wasn't at all. But will Katrina's dark past and ties to organized crime threaten the happiness they have found after so much heartache? 
    With her life, and now his, hanging in the balance, Lyle will find himself tested when it comes to how far he will go for love.

    This is the second, full-length, standalone book in the altar-ed destinies series a series of contemporary romances based on a wedding going awry. Republished in 2018 with revisions and new content.

    Elise Marion

    Elise Marion is a lover books and has a special place in her heart for sweet and sensual romance. Writing about love across all walks of life is her passion, as is reaching people through the written word. The Army wife and stay-at-home mother of two spends most of her time taking care of her children. Her second job includes writing stories about characters that people can fall in love with. When the Texas native isn't caring for her family or writing, you can usually find her with her nose in a book, singing loudly, or cooking up something new in the kitchen.
