She thought she'd never see him again.
After a messy divorce leaves her life in pieces, returning to her hometown is supposed to be a temporary escape. A chance to figure out who she is without the husband who broke her heart.
The last thing she expects is to run into Vernon Chwe.
Her high school enemy.
The boy who drove her insane for years with his smug smile, endless teasing, and reputation for breaking hearts.
One drunken night turns into the mistake of a lifetime when they wake up in Las Vegas with matching wedding rings and no memory of how they got there.
As if that isn't bad enough, a legal dispute involving a large sum of money forces them to remain married and convince everyone, including a judge, that they're a happily in-love couple.
Living together was never part of the plan.
Neither was discovering that Vernon isn't the same boy she hated in high school.
And neither was falling for the man behind the charming smile.
Because while she's been trying to forget him for years, Vernon has been trying to forget her for even longer.
Because beneath Vernon's effortless smile and playboy reputation is a man who's been carrying feelings he never confessed.
And beneath her anger is a woman who's terrified of getting her heart broken again.
Their marriage may have started as a mistake.
But love has a funny way of showing up when you least expect it.
