Three years after my groom ditched me for his stepsister, he stormed back home and found me pregnant.

He called me a liar.A whore.

A traitor to the Hawthorne name.

He was wrong.

He was attacking his own uncle’s child.

Three years ago.

On my wedding day with Tristan Hawthorne, his step-sister Brianna threatened to jump off a building.

Tristan abandoned me at the altar, still in my wedding dress, to save her.
