Hey there,

This book is,as you can see,a novella, a romantic novella to be exact,. It's a completed one and is well packed with all the aspects of a full novel,to be more specific,whatever a romantic novel enthusiast wants to have in a novel he or she loves to read,also has in this novella too,. This novella might have less chapters compares to a full length novel,but, that does not mean that this novella is lacking anything essential from a lengthy novel,. This book might have short chapters,but,it will give you the satisfaction of reading a full length novel once you have finished reading it and most important part of reading a novella is,that you will be finishing a book way more faster than a full lengthy novel and since these days nobody has a lot of time to spend in a lengthy novel and always so busy with life makes novella perfect for the hectic lifestyle and never disappoint a reader for choosing a novella instead of a lengthy novel,.

This book/story has taken from "Tale Of Love" a romantic novella collection series of mine which I have published on one of my Nathanprithvi accounts months ago,. All of the stories in that series are well written by famous authors and all of the stories deserves to be a standalone book,thus I am publishing those books as individual one,some are on here and others will be on other accounts of mine,. You would never be regretted or disappointed in ever giving a chance for this novella or other novellas from any of the " Tales Of Love" series,. All of the stories are incredibly beautiful and extremely pragmatic and the realistic nature of the stories will amaze you guys to your core and will be remembered as timeless pieces of writing art,.

So,that being said I am welcoming you guys to an incredible pragmatic and unforgettable experience of a romantic novella,.

CHAPTER 1

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

And Marcus Braun did not enjoy being shamed. For a moment, he thought about tattooing the saying on his forearm-so it could remind him every day how Adriana McNamara had stood him up not once, but twice.

Both times, she'd somehow managed to convince him she intended to show for their date. His temper spiked as he glanced at his Patek Philippe watch. Yep. Adriana was still over thirty minutes late.

The real mystery was why he still sat here at this French bistro in Uptown, north of Dallas, where she'd agreed to meet him when they'd talked on the phone yesterday.

The café patrons glanced at him curiously, but gone were the days when attention caused him to sweat and stammer. Selling your cloud storage company for 3.2 billion dollars gave a man a serious confidence boost. Otherwise, he'd never have agreed to meet the girl who'd humiliated him at their senior prom by-you guessed it-not showing up.

Obviously, Marcus wasn't as smart as all the magazine articles said. Adriana had played him for a fool ten years later as soundly as she had the first time. And here he'd thought it was time to let bygones be bygones, assuming they'd both grown a lot in the years since high school and could start over as adults.

Enough was enough. Marcus threw a fifty-dollar bill on the table and stalked to his car, already dialing EA International, the matchmaking company he'd recently hired. Elise Arundel, the matchmaker, had insisted her match software was top-notch and offered a refund if he didn't find true love. When Adriana's name came up as his match, Elise had implored him to give it a shot.
