Amelia and Derrick were high school sweethearts until the night of their graduation party when Derrick discovers their relationship has been a lie. Nothing more than a contract to unite two families and save them from bankruptcy.  

Losing the boy she thought was the love of her life on the night of their graduation party was heartbreaking.
Losing her best friend was painful.
Having to throw away her favorite bedding was nauseating.
Having the boy she thought loved her follow her and torture her at every opportunity broke her.

And finding out that it was all for nothing, that all the pain and loss was over money... is infuriating.

One child and one marriage between a Rushford and a Williams is what it will take to set them free. 

Amelia isn't the heartbroken girl from high school anymore. That girl was destroyed. The girl in her place is a mosaic made from the shattered pieces of that girl and she's not going to let anyone break her ever again. 

An arranged marriage between former lovers turned enemies...
