"I know you're rich."
Kyan Ashbourne thought those words would be followed by anger.
Instead, Joanne looked him straight in the eyes and said-
"I just came to tell you that I love you."
She didn't know he was the billionaire CEO everyone admired.
She only knew the quiet man she met on a park bench.
The man who remembered her favorite coffee.
The man who listened when the rest of her world fell apart.
The man she never expected to fall in love with.
But love isn't always simple.
Not when a broken engagement, buried secrets, and a past that refuses to stay in the past threaten everything they've built together.
Sometimes, the greatest love stories begin with heartbreak.
And sometimes...
The stranger sitting beside you is the person you've been searching for all along.

Hopelessly Devoted #Wattys2014
"You know, you could care a little more." He said. He did not just say that. Me? Not care? Unbelievable! "Oh so now this is my fault? Really? I don't care?" I said back to him. "Well most people would get pretty upset if the person they supposedly loved wanted to end their relationship." He threw back. "Oh so I only supposedly loved you? really Bentley!? what do you want me to do? Do you want me to break down in tears? Because if that's what it takes to keep you, then I will bawl my bloody eyes out! But even if I did that, you're still going to leave." I argued, quite honestly I did want to cry, I was just trying to be strong. "It doesn't matter Layla because in the end, I know that you don't really care" He said simply. What the hell?! "So I lost my virginity to you, told you I loved you and put up with a helluva lot in this relationship, all because I didn't care?" I yelled. *** #229 in romance 11/19/2016Complete
